Logging -- used for system events and security breaches to describe more informational yet essential aspects of software features -- is pervasive. Given the high transactionality of today's software, logging effectiveness can be reduced by…

Over-reliance on AI systems can undermine users' critical thinking and promote complacency, a risk intensified by the emergence of agentic AI systems that operate with minimal human involvement. In software engineering, agentic coding…

The scaling of Large Language Models (LLMs) has exposed a critical gap between their performance on static benchmarks and their fragility in dynamic, information-rich environments. While models excel at isolated tasks, the computational…

AI-based interactive assistants are advancing human-augmenting technology, yet their effects on users' mental and physiological states remain under-explored. We address this gap by analyzing how Copilot for Microsoft Word, a LLM-based…

Users can easily export personal data from devices (e.g., weather station and fitness tracker) and services (e.g., screentime tracker and commits on GitHub) they use but struggle to gain valuable insights. To tackle this problem, we present…

Collaborative brain-computer interface (cBCI) that conduct motor imagery (MI) among multiple users has the potential not only to improve overall BCI performance by integrating information from multiple users, but also to leverage…

The rise of large language models (LLMs) has accelerated the development of automated techniques and tools for supporting various software engineering tasks, e.g., program understanding, code generation, software testing, and program…

The software is often produced under significant time constraints. Our idea is to understand the effects of various software development practices on the performance of developers working in stressful environments, and identify the best…

GitHub Copilot is transforming software development by automating tasks and boosting productivity through AI driven code generation. In this paper, we conduct a literature survey to synthesize insights on Copilot's impact on productivity…

Several researchers have focused on studying driver cognitive behavior and mental load for in-vehicle interaction while driving. Adaptive interfaces that vary with mental and perceptual load levels could help in reducing accidents and…

Despite the availability of refactoring as a feature in popular IDEs, recent studies revealed that developers are reluctant to use them, and still prefer the manual refactoring of their code. At JetBrains, our goal is to fully support…

AI coding assistants are now central to professional software development, yet their impact on how developers think about and practice security remains poorly understood. While prior work has documented vulnerability rates in AI-generated…

AI-powered coding assistants, like GitHub Copilot, are increasingly used to boost developers' productivity. However, their output quality hinges on the contextual richness of the prompts. Meanwhile, gaze behaviour carries rich cognitive…

Cognitive-Driven Development (CDD) is a coding design technique that aims to reduce the cognitive effort that developers place in understanding a given code unit (e.g., a class). By following CDD design practices, it is expected that the…

Frameworks such as SPACE, DevEx, and DORA established that developer productivity is inherently multidimensional, but left practitioners with a practical question: what should we measure, and how should we use it to improve? This paper…

How bright can you cry? How loud does the sun shine? We developed a multisensory and multimodal tool, the Loaded Dice, for use in co-design workshops to research the design space of IoT usage scenarios. The Loaded Dice incorporate the…

With the advances in machine learning, there is a growing interest in AI-enabled tools for autocompleting source code. GitHub Copilot, also referred to as the "AI Pair Programmer", has been trained on billions of lines of open source GitHub…

Generative AI technologies promise to transform the product development lifecycle. This study evaluates the efficiency gains, areas for improvement, and emerging challenges of using GitHub Copilot, an AI-powered coding assistant. We…

Due to the Covid 19 pandemic and the associated effects on the world of work, the burden on employees has been brought into focus. This fact also applies to agile software development teams in many companies due to the extensive switch to…

About 32% of a software practitioners' day involves seeking and using information to support task completion. Although the information needs of software practitioners have been studied extensively, the impact of AI-assisted tools on their…
