Future of AI4SE: From Code Generation to Software Engineering?
Baishakhi Ray, Associate Professor, Columbia University, USA
The rise of AI-driven code generation tools like GitHub CoPilot, Cursor AI, etc., have revolutionized software development by automating routine tasks and accelerating coding processes. However, a gap persists between generated code and real-world software engineering. These tools often lack domain-specific understanding and contextual awareness, leading to suboptimal solutions for real-world applications. Addressing this gap requires integrating software engineering best practices into code generation frameworks and fostering human-AI collaboration. I will discuss the challenges and potential solutions for aligning code generation with the broader demands of software engineering.
The Standard of Rigor for MSR Research: A 20-Year Evolution
Bogdan Vasilescu, Raj Reddy Associate Professor of Software & Societal Systems, Carnegie Mellon Univ., USA
While I haven’t been around since the first edition of the then MSR workshop in Edinburgh in 2004, I can confidently say that I grew up as a researcher in, and together with, the MSR community. From the early days of mining email archives and SVN repositories, to today’s widespread use of AI-based techniques and LLMs, much has changed in how we do MSR research. In this talk I focus on a core MSR activity – quantitatively analyzing large-scale software-related data to draw actionable conclusions – and reflect on how our research methods have evolved over the past 20 years. Have we caught up in our methodological sophistication with researchers in social and behavioral sciences, where quantitative analysis of observational data has a long tradition? Let’s find out together.
Reshaping MSR (and SE) empirical evaluations in 2030
Massimiliano Di Penta, Professor, University of Sannio, Italy
Since its inception in 2004, the MSR landscape profoundly changed. The availability of large, diverse, and heterogenous forges and repositories, as well as the progress of technology (including, above all, the vast adoption of generative Artificial Intelligence in several pieces of research) have big implications on how we conduct empirical studies and how we evaluate our novel methods and tools. One of the consequences we observe is that publication standards are “apparently” increasing, requiring larger and larger evaluations like never before. Would this be necessary (and sufficient) to increase the significance, generalizability and impactfulness of research in the future? In this talk, I provide my view on how empirical evaluation is changing with the field evolution, the open challenges, and how ongoing research is trying to tackle such challenges.
