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.

Au programme 16h00 | Accueil des participants dans le hall de la Faculté de médecine16h30 | Séance anniversaire et inaugurale17h30 | Drink et visite (en groupe) des laboratoiresParticipation externe sur invitation. Une question ?  Contacter Jean-François Colomer : jean-francois.colomer@unamur.be 

Un ordinateur peut-il apprendre une langue comme le fait un enfant ? Une étude récente publiée dans la revue de référence Computational Linguistics par les professeurs Katrien Beuls (Université de Namur) et Paul Van Eecke (AI-lab, Vrije Universiteit Brussel) apporte un nouvel éclairage sur cette question. Les chercheurs plaident pour une révision fondamentale de la manière dont l'intelligence artificielle acquiert et traite le langage. 

Anthony Simonofski et Olivier Sartenaer, ont été élus pour rejoindre le prestigieux Collégium de l'Académie royale de Belgique. Rassemblant des jeunes chercheurs et chercheuses (moins de 40 ans) de Wallonie-Bruxelles qui se sont particulièrement distingués dans leur carrière, le Collégium a notamment pour objectif de promouvoir les arts et la recherche.

En octobre 2024, Guillaume Berionni, chercheur au Département de chimie de l’Université de Namur, a reçu le prix triennal de la Société Royale de Chimie (SRC) des mains de la Présidente, la Professeur Anne-Sophie Duwez.  Une belle récompense pour son équipe de recherche en réactivité et catalyse organométallique (RCO) mais aussi pour notre institution et son Département de chimie.

En pratique À qui s’adressent les cours ouverts ?Les cours ouverts sont accessibles à tous, même s’ils se destinent essentiellement aux élèves de l’enseignement secondaire pour les aider à franchir cette première étape d’exploration de l’enseignement supérieur.Quel est l’horaire des cours ouverts ?Les cours sont ouverts du 27 février au mercredi 5 mars 2025, de 08h30 à 16h30.Pour connaitre l’horaire précis et la localisation des locaux de chaque cours, vous êtes invités à vous présenter au service Info études (Rue de Bruxelles, 85 5000 Namur), 15 minutes avant le début du cours.Le programme provisoire est disponible 15 jours avant le début des cours ouverts.Comment rencontrer un conseiller en orientation ?Vous avez la possibilité de rencontrer un conseiller en orientation lors de l’atelier d’orientation prévu le mardi 4 mars 2025, de 13h30 à 16h00.Cet atelier a pour objectif de vous aider à réfléchir au processus d’orientation, mieux appréhender le paysage de l’enseignement supérieur et définir les balises principales dans le processus de clarification de votre projet (de formation et professionnel).Notre conseiller est également disponible sur rendez-vous pour une rencontre individuelle durant toute la semaine des cours ouverts et en-dehors de celle-ci.Faut-il s’inscrire pour participer ?L’accès aux cours ouverts se fait sans inscription préalable.Pour participer à l’atelier d’orientation, une inscription en ligne est toutefois obligatoire et sera disponible une dizaine de jours avant le début des cours ouverts.Qui organise les cours ouverts ?Les cours ouverts sont organisés par Info études, le service qui informe sur toute question liée au choix d’études, prérequis, réorientations, passerelles, programmes des cours, débouchés, formations complémentaires, valorisation des acquis de l’expérience… ou pour toute question générale sur la vie universitaire à Namur.
