Francqui 2025 Chair - Explainable Software Engineering
Version françaiseDans le cadre d’une Chaire Francqui internationale 2024-2025, la faculté d’informatique (UNamur) aura le plaisir de recevoir le Professeur Arie Van Deursen (TU Delft, Pays-bas) du 24 au 27 mars 2025, pour une série de leçons sur le thème: "Explainable Software Engineering".
Explainable Software Engineering in the Public Sector
The field of software engineering seeks to devise theories, methods, tools, and techniques that support the development, operation, and evolution of the digital infrastructure modern society relies on. While the software engineering capabilities have advanced substantially over the past decades, it remains challenging to deliver high quality systems in a timely and cost-effective manner. Government system in particular have a weak reputation in this respect.To better understand why, we analyze 125 complex software projects in the public sector in The Netherlands. The projects are described in public reports published by the Advisory Council on IT Assessments (AcICT), which advises the Dutch parliament and cabinet on riks and chances of success in complex Information Technology (IT) projects. The projects span a time period of 10 years, represent a total budget of over 14 billion Euros, and cover such areas as tax collection, social security, pensions, health, traffic control, defense, or water management.We study these reports through the lens of "explainability", focusing on supporting decision making. Furthermore, we reflect on current advances in software engineering, including modern software testing and large language models, in addressing current software engineering challenges.

CSLabs Hackathon
A Hackathon is a short event where teams reflect on a particular theme. They attempt to find solutions by developing innovative projects. At the end of the event, a jury determines which projects have caught their attention and thus won the competition.
A CSLabs initiative
The Computer Science Labs is a junior enterprise that grew out of the Faculty of Computer Science at the University of Namur. In practical terms, its actions revolve around carrying out projects, training members on IT-related topics and organizing events.
