Wellness Break: Mindfulness for Developers (Part 2)

Dr. André Vellino
Dr. Kimberly Sogge

The unprecedented conditions imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic challenge all of us - software developers and technology innovators included - to find equanimity and stability within ourselves. For many of us, the pandemic has exacerbated existing work pressures, fatigue, and feelings of isolation. Mindfulness meditation is one method that can help us recognize and relieve the many stresses and uncertainties that arise from these unprecedented events.

A simple code generator for bespoke data models, web forms, and scientific workflows in Eclipse ICE

Jay Billings (Stellar Science Ltd. Co.)
Daniel Bluhm (Oak Ridge National Laboratory)
The primary goal of the Eclipse ICE project is to provide tooling for creating scientific workbenches and workflows. Developing these tools over the past decade has often involved a tedious, uninspiring rehashing of the same boilerplate Java code, the same project layouts, and the same opportunity to identify new ways to streamline our efforts. To put it another way: How much time better spent getting coffee is lost to re-implementing Object.equals() for ten years?

The New Web for Spatial Computing

Tish Shute (Leichliter) (Futurewei Technologies Inc.)

The future of spatial computing is being built on a new web of open source initiatives e.g., Rust & Wasm, which are bringing the performance capabilities needed for spatial computing, previously only available to native applications, to the open web. This talk will look at the challenge of creating an open web stack performative enough to make reality the next platform for computing.

Testing practices of database communication in open-source projects

Csaba Nagy (Software Institute - USI, Lugano)

Database communication has a distinctive role in the codebase. We have to deal with libraries dedicated to specific databases, and we often use query languages such as SQL. It is tempting to avoid touching such code, and when it comes to testing, we face many challenges. To mention only a few examples: Will we mock or use an in-memory database? Do we need to write an integration test or a unit test? How do we know which code is responsible for database communication?

The LEGO of containers

Todor Boev (Software AG)

Containers have become a corner stone of most cloud applications. Yet to many they remain a mysterious construct. If you like us feel uneasy to build software so fundamentally based on an abstraction you do not really understand this talk is for you.

 

We will explain how linux containers, rather than one single abstraction, are a novel combination of old and common Linux constructs:

Sustainability in Software Engineering

Martin Lippert (Pivotal Software, Inc now under VMWare-April 2020)

Climate change is one of the most dramatic and urgent challenges we face globally. To fight climate change, every step counts and every single step is important - and necessary. In this talk, we will give an overview about all the different aspects that affect climate change from the software engineering perspective and discuss a number of concrete actions that every software engineer can take (and should keep in mind day-in day-out) to help fight climate change.

EMF Compare: graphical modeling comparison

Axel RICHARD (OBEO)

EMF Compare brings support for model comparison to the EMF framework. It allows users to determine changes that have been made to their models, identify overlaps between distinct models and merge changes that have been performed between successive versions of their models.
