Trending Topics in Software Engineering

Abstract

Software Engineering (SE) is evolving to make the best out of the constantly changing technological trends, ranging from development to deployment to management and decommissioning of software systems. In this new column Trending Topics in Software Engineering, we aim at providing insights, reports, and outlooks on how researchers and practitioners around the world are working (or planning to work) on those trends. We intend to collect the challenges they are facing or foresee, and explore them in future issues. Our ultimate ambition is to stimulate fruitful discussion in our columns to contribute to identifying the next SE trends, while illustrating them to our audience.
