  • Future Trends in Software Engineering

    The world is changing and so are the demands on our discipline. In this talk
    I will highlight some of the recent trends, namely the rise of empirical
    software engineering, of multi-core software engineering, of web service
    engineering, of secure, dependable and energy conscientious engineering.
    I will also give examples of what my team is doing to address these
    challenges ranging from work in software analytics (CRANE for risk
    assessment and effort estimation), to program analysis (Pex and SAGE for
    security testing, VCC for verifying concurrent C), to new runtimes (TPL for
    exploiting task parallelism, or Green for approximate computations), to
    novel operating system designs for the future (ServiceOS for software plus
    services).

    BIO: Wolfram Schulte is a principal researcher and the founding manager of Microsoft’s
    Research in Software Engineering (RiSE) team in Redmond, WA., USA. His team
    focuses on improving software productivity by providing better analytics, languages and
    tools for describing, analyzing, testing and executing software. Before joining Microsoft
    Research in 1999, he worked at the University of Ulm (1993-1999), at sd&m, a German
    software company (1992-1993), and at the Technical University Berlin (1987-1992).
