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.

This thesis presents a novel approach to address the challenges of deploying and managing Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) in resource-constrained and multi-domain environments. The proposed solution leverages a Raspberry Pi clusterbased approach for NFV deployment in resource-constrained environments, combined with a deployable Sidecar VNF (S-VNF) coordinator for multi-domain NFV orchestration.The thesis demonstrates the feasibility of integrating NFV into edge computing environments by successfully deploying and managing Network Services (NSs) on a Raspberry Pi cluster. The S-VNF coordinator facilitates efficient cross-cloud VNF deployment and management while ensuring security and interoperability.While the obtained deployment and scaling delays in the testbed setup were significant due to the bare-metal deployment process used, the proposed solution remains valuable in environments where service maintenance time is a critical factor.By automating deployment and scaling, organizations can minimize the impact of service maintenance time, improve customer satisfaction, and enhance system resilience. Moreover, the solution enables NFV to be deployed effectively in edge environments, providing benefits such as reduced latency and improved network performance.Overall, this thesis contributes to the advancement of NFV by providing innovative solutions for deployment and management in challenging environments. The proposed framework has the potential to enable the widespread adoption of NFV and drive the development of new network services.Dirigée par le Prof. Laurent SCHUMACHER et le Prof. Sokchenda SRENG.Devant un jury composé de :Prof. Wim VANHOOF, Président, Université de NamurProf. Laurent SCHUMACHER, Co-Promoteur, Université de NamurProf. Sokchenda SRENG, Co-Promoteur, ITC Graduate School (Cambodge)Prof. Florentin ROCHET, Membre interne, Université de NamurProf. Johann MARQUEZ-BARJA, Membre externe, Université d’AnversProf. Bruno QUOITIN, Membre externe, Université de MonsProf. Raveth HIN, Membre externe, ITC Graduate School (Cambodge)Vous êtes cordialement invités à un drink, qui suivra la soutenance publique.Pour une bonne organisation, merci de donner votre réponse pour le jeudi 20 mars.Contact : Daelman Isabelle – isabelle.daelman@unamur.be

Obtenir instantanément la traduction en langue des signes (LSFB) d’un mot écrit en français : voilà ce que permet MOSI (Du mot au signe). Ce nouvel outil est le fruit d’une collaboration entre l’Université de Namur, l’asbl École et Surdité et l’asbl LSFB, soutenue par la Fondation Roi Baudouin.

Un Hackathon est un moment de courte durée où des équipes réfléchissent à une thématique particulière. Elles tentent d'y apporter des solutions en développant des projets innovants. À la fin de l'évènement, un jury détermine quels sont les projets qui ont retenu leur attention et qui ont donc gagné la compétition. Une initiative du CSLabs Le Computer Science Labs est une junior entreprise issue de la Faculté d’Informatique de l’Université de Namur. Pratiquement, ses actions s’articulent autour de la réalisation de projets, de la formation des membres sur des thématiques liées à l'informatique et de l'organisation d'événements. En savoir plus

JEDDT 2024-2025 | Transcender les frontières disciplinaires pour façonner un avenir durableCe projet institutionnel soutenu par les 7 facultés de l’Université et le fonds 6-24 de la Fondation Roi Baudouin propose à tous les étudiants et étudiantes de fin de cycle de bachelier une approche transversale et holistique qui aborde la transition et le développement durable sous de multiples aspects (populations, santé, droit, biodiversité, ressources planétaires, éthique, économie, justice, gestion … ), sans négliger la dimension spirituelle et émotionnelle de la crise écologique et civilisationnelle que nous traversons.A cette occasion, les étudiants auront l’opportunité de présenter à la communauté universitaire, et au public plus largement, le fruit de la réflexion menée en équipes. Ils le feront au travers d’un support créatif, leur permettant de se challenger dans le cadre d’un débat mené avec des experts et des représentants de la société civile.La cérémonie de clôture sera suivie d’un drink convivial. Cet évènement est gratuit mais l'inscription est obligatoire.

Pour Bruno Dumas, l’informatique s’inscrit dans les principes de la psychologie appliquée L’intelligence artificielle (IA) s’immisce dans nos vies professionnelles comme dans nos vies privées. Elle nous séduit comme elle nous inquiète. À l’échelle mondiale, elle est au cœur d’importants enjeux stratégiques, sociétaux ou économiques, débattus encore mi-février 2025, lors du sommet mondial de l’IA à Paris. Mais comment ne pas la subir en tant qu’utilisateur ? Comment avoir accès à cette nécessaire transparence de son fonctionnement ? En plaçant son prisme de recherche du côté de l’utilisateur, Bruno Dumas est en quelque sorte « un psychologue de l’informatique ». Expert en interaction humain-machine, co-président de l’Institut NaDI (Namur Digital Institut), il défend l'idée d'une utilisation raisonnée et éclairée des technologies émergentes.
