Computing for Social Good on Your Campus
Authors: Lori Postner; G. Hislop
Year: 2022

Computing for social good is an expanding focus for many computing departments. For some, computing for social good aligns with their missions, while for others it is a way to broaden students' views of the field. Having students work on an issue on their campus or in their community provides them with a topic that may be familiar, or a client that may be more accessible. It empowers them to make a difference at their school and help others in a concrete and meaningful way. Examples of campus-based computing for social good initiatives are LibreFoodPantry (on-campus food pantries), FarmData (college run organic farm) and OpenEnergyDashboard (on-campus energy utilization). These open source projects allow students to contribute to a campus-based need while at the same time learning valuable project management skills, teamwork, version control and much more. The organizers of this BoF are faculty members involved in open source software that addresses a need on their campus. The organizers will facilitate discussion by providing an overview of their campus project and how they engage their students with the project. Attendees will be encouraged to share projects ideas for their campuses and ask questions about getting started. This BoF will provide faculty members the opportunity to network with instructors with experience in this area.
Analyzing Factors That Influence Offshore Outsourcing Decision of Application Maintenance
Authors: H. Rahman; M. Raza; P. Afsar; Habib Ullah Khan; S. Nazir
Year: 2020

Application maintenance consumes a considerable amount of an organization’s time and resources each year. Almost 60% of IT budget is spent alone on application maintenance. The reason of offshore outsourcing of application maintenance is not only the reduction of maintenance cost but to free up the resources and to keep the focus on core products. Offshore outsourcing is a common business strategy that is used by companies to achieve cost savings about 20-50%. However, the decision making process of application maintenance is a complex phenomenon. It is based on a set of influencing factors, clients’ requirements and nature of the project. Hence, the current study is aimed at the in-depth investigation of the complex sourcing decision process of application maintenance. Accordingly, a systematic literature review is performed to determine the influencing factors and critical success factors that will be used by the decision makers for the evaluation of projects before making the outsourcing decisions. A total of 15 influencing factors out of 52 selected papers were identified. Based on the defined criteria, amongst the identified factors, only 10 factors were ranked as critical success factors, which are employees’ skills, cost, legal requirements, infrastructure, communication, knowledge transfer, maturity level, project management, language barrier and frequent requirements changes. Consequently, a sourcing model was proposed based on the identified critical success factors that help the IT managers and domain experts in making appropriate outsourcing decisions.
Enhancing Automated Program Repair with Solution Design
Authors: Jiuang Zhao; Donghao Yang; Li Zhang; Xiaoli Lian; Zitian Yang; Fang Liu
Year: 2024

Automatic Program Repair (APR) endeavors to autonomously rectify issues within specific projects, which generally encompasses three categories of tasks: bug resolution, new feature development, and feature enhancement. Despite extensive research proposing various methodologies, their efficacy in addressing real issues remains unsatisfactory. It’s worth noting that, typically, engineers have design rationales (DR) on solution— planed solutions and a set of underlying reasons—before they start patching code. In open-source projects, these DRs are frequently captured in issue logs through project management tools like Jira. This raises a compelling question: How can we leverage DR scattered across the issue logs to efficiently enhance APR?To investigate this premise, we introduce DRCodePilot, an approach designed to augment GPT-4-Turbo’s APR capabilities by incorporating DR into the prompt instruction. Furthermore, given GPT-4’s constraints in fully grasping the broader project context and occasional shortcomings in generating precise identifiers, we have devised a feedback-based self-reflective framework, in which we prompt GPT-4 to reconsider and refine its outputs by referencing a provided patch and suggested identifiers. We have established a benchmark comprising 938 issue-patch pairs sourced from two open-source repositories hosted on GitHub and Jira. Our experimental results are impressive: DRCodePilot achieves a full-match ratio that is a remarkable 4.7x higher than when GPT-4 is utilized directly. Additionally, the CodeBLEU scores also exhibit promising enhancements. Moreover, our findings reveal that the standalone application of DR can yield promising increase in the full-match ratio across CodeLlama, GPT-3.5, and GPT-4 within our benchmark suite. We believe that our DRCodePilot initiative heralds a novel human-in-the-loop avenue for advancing the field of APR.CCS CONCEPTS• Software and its engineering → Maintaining software.

Using the concept of mission command in defence resources management – the case of Romania
Authors: Maria Constantinescu
Year: 2023

ABSTRACT Elements of mission command can be found in successful styles of leadership both in military and in business environments, as it is based on empowering subordinates or employees to make decisions, encouraging their confidence and creativity to solve problems/achieve objectives. The purpose of this paper is to explore the potential advantages and drawbacks of applying this concept to the field of defence resources management, by analysing the common areas between these approaches. The research hypothesis is that the concept of mission command can be approached as a management process aimed at achieving clearly identified objectives, similar to the processes of project management, programme management, or defence resource management in general. The paper uses qualitative research methods, based on the analysis of existing specialised literature regarding the concept of mission-based command, the concept of defence resource management, and on an exploratory research, based on unstructured interviews with specialists in the two fields.

Media, Mood, and Meetings: Related to Project Success?
Authors: K. Schneider; Olga Liskin; Hilko Paulsen; S. Kauffeld
Year: 2015

This article investigates relationships between media, mood, and communication in teams, and studies how they are related to project success. Team projects are an essential part of the software engineering curriculum. Student teams carry out full software projects, including requirements elicitation, project management, implementation, and testing. This requires various technical skills, but non-technical and psychological aspects are of utmost importance as well, just as in professional software teams. Modern software is often developed by distributed teams. In many cases, team members feel isolated and distant from each other. Indirect communication and inappropriate media create a similar feeling of distance as geographical location. This perceived distance could have an impact on their individual and group moods, and eventually on project success. Therefore, these factors should be considered in educational software engineering team projects.
 In a longitudinal study at Leibniz Universität Hannover, 20 student teams were observed over a period of 4 months. They were free to schedule team meetings when and where they wanted; and they could use any communication media they chose. Statistical correlations and non-parametric test are used for quantitative empirical analysis. Furthermore, we used analyses of variance for repeated measures to investigate conflicts over time. Results led to a number of recommendations for course organizers. They are interesting for software engineering in general.
Systems Thinking for Project Management? Risky Not To
Authors: Fran Ackermann
Year: 2023

Adopting system thinking concepts within the realm of project management may assist in avoiding or at least reducing the significant overruns being experienced by projects across the globe. This chapter examines this premise and considers this from three aspects. The first is actively incorporating the views of a range of project stakeholders. This inclusion not only ensures the capture of a wide array of risks but also enables ‘buy in’ and alignment of direction, thus attending to arguments that stakeholder management is a critical component of successful projects. In addition, the chapter considers how systems thinking can add significant value through attending to the capture of the interactive nature of risks and the dynamics of risk – the continuous changing of composition and salience over time.The chapter briefly notes the evolution of tools and techniques for assisting project managers in taking a systemic view focusing on one particular technique, causal mapping, to provide illustration. The chapter concludes with the view that not only is it important to capture i) a wide array of risks, ii) interactions between risks and iii) breadth of stakeholders but that each of these aspects impact one another adding a further systemic factor.
Does crude oil price volatility affect risk-taking capability in business group firms: evidence from India?
Authors: N. Tripathi; A. Tiwari; S. Hammoudeh; Abhay Kumar
Year: 2024

PurposeThe study tests risk-taking and risk-aversion capabilities while distinguishing between business group firms and stand-alone firms and considering oil price volatility. Second, this attempt to study the linkage between risk-taking during market down movements and when the firms have established themselves as product market leaders. Third, this study analyses the “sentiment” state, where it explores the reaction of corporations when the market is in the negative direction, and lastly, it explores the linkage between product market competition and risk-aversion.Design/methodology/approachThis study uses financial information for 1,273 non-financial companies and other required data from various sources. The study employs panel data and utilizes different empirical methodologies, including the generalized method of moments (GMM) estimator, to test the stated hypotheses.FindingsWe find that the business group firms have more risk-taking proficiencies compared with the stand-alone firms. Moreover, this study discovers that the corporates avoid taking risks when the market is not performing well. Also, when the market is down and crude prices are high, the management expects high earnings in the future, willingly takes risks and shows that product market leaders do not follow the risk-aversion strategy.Practical implicationsThe empirical results indicate that oil price movement can restrict management’s behaviour when choosing a risky investment project. Management should develop a robust policy that follows the group of firms. In the policy, the management should describe the level of risk that may be taken by the firm and implement it when required.Originality/valueSince we do not find any studies in this context, then there is a major and essential gap in the literature that this study should fill.

Authors: Billy Brooks; D. Blackley; Paula Masters; A. S. May; Garry Mayes; Christian L. Williams; R. Pack
Year: 2014

In an effort to bridge the gap between public health practice and academia, the Health Resources and Services Administration-funded Tennessee Public Health Training Center (LIFEPATH) has supported establishment of an academic health department (AHD) involving the East Tennessee State University College of Public Health (COPH) and the Sullivan County Regional Health Department (SCRHD). The SCRHD identified a need to increase internal capacity to conduct ongoing community health assessment and community-centered practice. Similarly, the COPH recognized the need to expand evidence-based practice implementation and evaluation opportunities for public health students. Personnel from the SCRHD, LIFEPATH, and the COPH developed a formal AHD agreement during the summer of 2012 and launched the program the subsequent fall semester. One aspect of the COPH/SCRHD/LIFEPATH model that addresses financial barriers experienced by other AHDs is the competitive awarding of the coordinator position to a doctor of public health student from the COPH, demonstrating investment in the model by the college. The doctor of public health student gains leadership experience through project management, coordination of the local health council, and day-to-day facilitation of undergraduate and master's student interns. The SCRHD benefits from the formal academic background of graduate-level interns dedicated to working in the community. This AHD framework offers an opportunity for doctoral-level students to develop practical leadership skills in a health department while enhancing the capacity of the SCRHD and the COPH to serve their community and stakeholders.
Software mangineeringment: teaching project management from software engineering perspective
Authors: A. Tomer
Year: 2014

Software Engineers are often promoted to management positions, based on their engineering excellence, lacking management knowledge, which is not always part of their undergraduate SE program. Moreover, very early in their career software engineers face management issues, when they are required to meet budget and schedule, to assess potential risks, to make make/buy decisions or to maintain effective communications over globally-dispersed teams. These combined jobs may be referred to as "Software Mangineeringment". General Project Management education does not equip these engineers with enough relevant practice for the software domain. This article describes an undergraduate course which combines the general project management theory and practice with software-specific practices. The course framework is the guide to Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide), which includes 42 projects management processes organized categorized into 9 Knowledge Areas. The course extends these processes with many practices taken from a large variety of software engineering resources. The course is also delivered as an industrial seminar targeted at software managers in their initial management steps.

Numerous studies have linked various leadership styles with project success; however, the role of project leaders’ self-efficacy and project opportunity management has been rarely studied. The present study examines the effects of project leaders’ self-efficacy on multidimensional project success through project opportunity management. Drawing on data of 386 project professionals, the hypothesized relationships were tested using structural equation modeling (SEM) via MPlus. Empirical findings support that project opportunity management helps to explain and predict the relationship between project leaders’ self-efficacy and project success. The study extends project management literature by presenting a new model of multidimensional project success.
