应计算机科学与技术学院院长王亚东教授邀请，在国际合作部国际项目管理中心大力支持下，IEEE Fellow、美国南加州大学Nenad Medvidovic教授将于2019年4月8日-2019年4月14日访问我校计算机学院。访问期间将在我校开展三次学术报告，欢迎感兴趣的老师和同学参加。

报告一

报告时间：4月9日 14:00-15:30

报告地点：新技术楼618室

报告主题：Mining Architectural Information to Stem Technical Debt

主要内容：In this talk, I will focus on isolating three types of architectural information from the details readily available about a system’s implementation: architectural design decisions, change, and decay. I will show how this information can be used to identify the locations in a software system’s implementation that reflect the architectural decay, the points in a system’s lifetime when that decay tends to occur, and the reasons why it occurs. I will show how architectural decay tends to correlate with the occurrence of commonly reported implementation-level issues, and how it can be predicted. Finally, I will identify steps that engineers can take to manage the accumulated technical debt by stemming and reversing the decay.

报告二

报告时间：4月11日 14:00-15:30

报告地点：新技术楼618室

报告主题：Loose Coupling in Mobile Systems: Challenges and Opportunities

主要内容：Event-based interaction is an attractive paradigm because its use can lead to highly flexible and adaptable systems. Mobile systems rely on events to enable users to interact with applications, and also to enable applications to interact with one another. For example, in Android, two types of event-based interaction are commonly used: (1) callbacks are used to handle user interaction and (2) intents are used to enable inter-app communication. One problem in the event-based paradigm is that events are sent, received, and processed nondeterministically, due to the event-based systems’ reliance on implicit invocation and implicit concurrency. This talk will discuss a suite of software analysis and instrumentation techniques for identifying anomalies in event-based interactions, sealing off certain types of security vulnerabilities, and improving the runtime performance of event-based mobile applications.
