DESCRIPTION:Dr. Reed M. Milewicz will present:\n\nTitle: Advancing Software
  Engineering Excellence in Scientific  Software Development \n\nAbstract: 
 Many scientific  software development teams experience challenges in their
  development practices that can adversely impact the team’s productivity
 \, the sustainability of their software\, and the reliability of their sci
 entific results. Even when such challenges are recognized\, teams may not 
 see a way to improve the situation\, or may consider potential solutions t
 o be too expensive or onerous. In this talk\, software engineering researc
 her Reed Milewicz will provide guidance based on his published research an
 d first-hand experience on how to develop robust software that can keep pa
 ce with evolving scientific objectives. We will discuss the fundamentals o
 f software quality\, how that quality influences reproducibility and other
  desirable properties of research software\, and strategies for improving 
 software development processes to ensure those outcomes. Topics of discuss
 ion will include the Productivity and Sustainability Improvement Planning 
 (PSIP) toolkit\, a lightweight set of practices and resources for software
  process improvement originally developed for use within the US Exascale C
 omputing Project\, as well as the presenter's ongoing research into softwa
 re quality practices for engineering reproducible software.\n\nBio: Reed M
 . Milewicz Ph.D.\, is a computer scientist and software engineering resear
 cher in the Department of Software Engineering and Research at Sandia Nati
 onal Laboratories\, where he is the research lead. His research focuses on
  developing better practices\, processes\, and tools to improve software d
 evelopment in the scientific domain. This is a course of research that str
 addles the line between systems and human factors\, ranging from technolog
 ies such as compilers and formal verification tools to direct engagement w
 ith software teams through evidence-based software process improvement. Hi
 s current work includes being PI of Engineering Common Model Framework (EC
 MF) project at Sandia which aims to develop infrastructures for archiving 
 and sustaining computational science and engineering models\, and usabilit
 y lead for the DARPA PROVERS evaluation program which seeks to improve the
  usability and efficacy of formal methods tools in high-consequence softwa
 re development contexts.\n\nZoom details below\n\nTopic: Professor Reed M.
