SUMMARY:MS5H - Code Complete and More: Emerging Efforts to Improve Softwar
 e Quality (Part 1/2)
DESCRIPTION:Minisymposium\n\nIn the book Code Complete by Steve McConnell,
  the author argues that working software is the only essential deliverable
  of a software project. At the same time, many other activities requiring 
 diverse skills produce a variety of non-software artifacts that make high-
 quality software possible and assure the effective use of software in rese
 arch. As software becomes more important for research, more sophisticated 
 in its design and capabilities, more integrated into research workflows, a
 nd more useful to broader communities, additional expertise and tools beco
 me important to producing and sustaining software. In this minisymposium, 
 we explore both possible and demonstrated successes resulting from introdu
 cing expertise in social and cognitive sciences, organizational psychology
 , community development and policies, and tools and processes that focus o
 n meta-data in support of high-quality software. We have found that taking
  into account these aspects of scientific software development, maintenanc
 e, and use can significantly improve the value of software, enabling us to
  improve the quality and frequency of research results and reduce the cost
  of obtaining them.\n\nHuman Factors in Industrial Research Software Engin
 eering\n\nAt the German Aerospace Center (DLR), research software is devel
 oped at over 50 institutes at 30 locations and ranges from small data anal
 ysis scripts developed by individual researchers to mission-critical softw
 are and production-ready software developed in cooperation with industry p
 artners. Tools...\n\n\nKatharina Dworatzyk and Tobias Schlauch (German Aer
 ospace Center)\n---------------------\nThe Role of Software Platforms in S
 upporting Scientific Software Communities\n\nSoftware platforms provide ma
 ny services to developers and users. Designed and implemented well, they p
 romote better, faster, and lower-cost development of software products, an
 d provide users with a diverse range of access methods, user support, and 
 ease of use. Furthermore, software platforms prov...\n\n\nMichael A. Herou

 ----\nHow Human-Centered Tools and Processes can Improve Software Developm
 ent\n\nModern software engineering in research is increasingly assisted by
  a plethora of sophisticated development tools. In this presentation, we w
 ill take a look at typical tooling and automation processes. Motivated by 
 a human-centric approach for development, we will discuss selected challen
 ges and sol...\n\n\nAxel Huebl (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory)\n--
 -------------------\nFinding Time through User Research\n\nUser research i
 s commonly thought of as a tool for improving the user's experience—a meth
 od for smoothing frictions and increasing engagement. However, user resear
 ch can also be used to meet developers' goals. In this talk, we present a 
 recent case from our study of a scientific cloud computin...\n\n\nHannah C
