    Long Research in Short Space
    2024/11/27
    Listen to this interview of Keila Lima, PhD candidate, Department of Computer Science, Electrical Engineering and Mathematical Sciences at the Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, Norway. We talk about her coauthored paper A Data-Flow Oriented Software Architecture for Heterogeneous Marine Data Streams (ICSA 2024). Download this screenshot of the paper. In the screenshot, you see green highlighting that picks out the function word which divides the two parts of this work: one, the architecture developed, and two, the environment where it's been developed. But why in that order? Why not: Heterogeneous marine data steams using a data-flow oriented software architecture? The answer here is audience, because ICSA is a conference for software architecture, and this team of authors have the contribution of a new architecture here. Therefore, the Title puts the topic first (data-flow oriented software architecture), then adding more about that topic after (heterogeneous marine data streams). Learn more about your ad choices.

    Listen to this interview of Omer Akgul, postdoctoral researcher, CyLab, Carnegie Mellon University. We talk about his coauthored paper Investigating Influencer VPN Ads on YouTube (SP 2022). Download this screenshot of the paper. In the screenshot, you see yellow highlighting that continues the meso-level argumentation of the Introduction. We, the readers, are now brought inside of one particular kind of ad on YouTube — and crucially, as well, we are told explicitly why those ads in particular. After reading this, we have no further doubt or concern as to the authors' selection of data. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Your Reader Wants Also to See Your Point
    2024/11/17
    Listen to this interview of Justus Bogner, Assistant Professor, Software and Sustainability Group, Vrije Universiteit, Netherlands. We talk about his coauthored papers Do RESTful API design rules have an impact on the understandability of Web APIs? (EMSE 2023) and RESTRuler: Towards Automatically Identifying Violations of RESTful Design Rules in Web APIs (ICSA 2024). Download this screenshot of the ICSA paper. In the screenshot, you see blue highlighting that matches content portrayed by Figure 1 as it's presented in the running text. There is definitely a lot to see, but even more that the writing goes into describing and explaining. For that reason, Justus and his coauthors have chosen to do that work using both figure and text. It is the interaction here between the two that makes their study design palpable and visual — a huge help to the reader trying to appreciate just how they have arrived at these three RQs!

    Listen to this interview of Markus Funke, PhD Candidate in the Software and Sustainability Group, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Netherlands. We talk about his coauthored paper Carving Sustainability into Architecture Knowledge Practice (ECSA 2023). Markus Funke : "I find that one excellent way for avoiding unnecessary repetition in the text is to use the opening of each section or subsection to state plainly what you're going to do and why you’re going to do it that way — because then you can just get going and do that, without reexplaining and restating things again and again."

    Software Engineering Research: The Science of Relevant Practical Applications
    2024/10/27
    Listen to this interview of Michael Felderer, Director of the Institute of Software Technology, German Aerospace Center; and also, Professor of Computer Science, University of Cologne, Germany. We talk about those interdependencies between science and engineering which make the base of software research. Michael Felderer : "When preparing your manuscript for submission, try to imagine reviewers’ expectations — really imagine, for example, what you would expect if you were the reviewer. So ask, what will help you understand this work, what will increase your appreciation of the results or interpretation. Consider, too, your own busy schedule — because your reviewers will be at least as busy as you are. Make the job easier of understanding key ideas, contributions, technical content. It’s not about changing the work, but instead, about framing it all in a clear and usable way.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Timely Research in a Timely Format

    Listen to this interview of Javier Cámara and Lola Burgueño — both Associate Professors, ITIS Software, University of Málaga, Spain. We talk about their coauthored paper On the assessment of generative AI in modeling tasks: an experience report with ChatGPT and UML (SoSyM 2023). Lola Burgueño : "Yes, we're definitely pleased that we went for a timely piece like the Expert Voice at SoSyM — because after seeing how we've reached people and seeing, too, how people are citing the paper, we think we chose the right type of text, the right tone in the writing — because in these ways, we were enabled to help people to understand a little bit more about how to use and about when to use LLMs in modeling tasks."
