In modern software development world, experts are trying to provide the best solutions to their clients. To achieve this, the organizations opt for the agile software development process as it enables them to develop and deliver the product…
The increasing demand for web applications containing AI-agents, seen as smart web applications, has prompted the need for new techniques to facilitate their creation. Low-code has risen as an approach that reduces the amount of handwritten…
Software engineering (SE) requires developers to collaborate with stakeholders, and understanding their emotions and perspectives is often vital. Empathy is a concept characterising a person's ability to understand and share the feelings of…
Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models are designed to enhance the efficiency of large language models (LLMs) without proportionally increasing the computational demands. However, their deployment on edge devices still faces significant challenges…
We explore some of the existing research in HCI around technology for older adults and examine the role of LLMs in enhancing it. We also discuss the digital divide and emphasize the need for inclusive technology design. At the same time, we…
The emergence of LLMs has catalyzed a paradigm shift in autonomous agent development, enabling systems capable of reasoning, planning, and executing complex multi-step tasks. However, existing agent frameworks often suffer from…
Mobile health (mHealth) applications are widely used for chronic disease management, but usability and accessibility challenges persist due to the diverse needs of users. Adaptive User Interfaces (AUIs) offer a personalized solution to…
Despite the increasing presence of AI assistants in Integrated Development Environments (IDEs), it remains unclear what different groups of developers actually need from these tools and which features are likely to be implemented in…
In software applications, user models can be used to specify the profile of the typical users of the application, including personality traits, preferences, skills, etc. In theory, this would enable an adaptive application behavior that…
Accessibility remains a critical concern in today's society, as many technologies are not developed to support the full range of user needs. Existing multi-agent systems (MAS) often cannot provide comprehensive assistance for users in need…
Artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled everyday technologies could help address age-related challenges like physical impairments and cognitive decline. While recent research studied older adults' experiences with specific AI-enabled products…
In this paper, we report on our 5-year's practical experience of designing, developing and then deploying a Model-based Requirements Engineering (MBRE) approach and language in the context of three different large European collaborative…
Design systems represent a user interaction design and development approach that is currently of avid interest in the industry. However, little research work has been done to synthesize knowledge related to design systems in order to inform…
Usability is an increasing concern in open source software (OSS). Given the recent changes in the OSS landscape, it is imperative to examine the OSS contributors' current valued factors, practices, and challenges concerning usability. We…
As a research-product hybrid group in AI for Software Engineering (AI4SE), we present four key takeaways from our experience developing in-IDE AI coding assistants. AI coding assistants should set clear expectations for usage, integrate…
The software engineering community recently has witnessed widespread deployment of AI programming assistants, such as GitHub Copilot. However, in practice, developers do not accept AI programming assistants' initial suggestions at a high…
AI-empowered tools have emerged as a transformative force, fundamentally reshaping the software development industry and promising far-reaching impacts across diverse sectors. This study investigates the adoption, impact, and security…
While assistive robots have much potential to help older people with frailty-related needs, there are few in use. There is a gap between what is developed in laboratories and what would be viable in real-world contexts. Through a series of…
Let's imagine that in a few years generative AI has changed software development dramatically, taking charge of most of the programming tasks. Let's also assume that extended reality devices became ubiquitous, being the preferred interface…
E-payments are essential for transactional convenience in today's digital economy and are becoming increasingly important for older adults, emphasizing the need for enhanced security, privacy, and usability. To address this, we conducted a…
