Call for Participation: OOPSLA 2009 Workshop on Human Aspects of Software Engineering

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION The First Workshop on Human Aspects of Software Engineering (HAoSE2009) In conjunction with http://www.oopsla.org/oopsla2009 Sunday, October 25, 2009 Workshop website: http://edu.technion.ac.il/Faculty/OritH/HomePage/HAOSE_OOPSLA_Workshop/index.htm OOPSLA early registration deadline: September 17th, 2009. *ABSTRACT * This workshop focuses on human aspects of software engineering. The importance of this topic stems from the recognition that the more the software world is developed, the more it is accepted by the software engineering community that the people involved in software development processes deserve more attention. In this spirit, this workshop attempts to highlight the world of software engineering from the perspective of the main actors involved in software development processes: the individuals, the team, the customer, different organizational role holders, and other stake holders. *WORKSHOP PROGRAM* The workshop consists of theory- and practice-based presentations, group work and discussions. Workshop activities include: experience sharing with respect to case studies in which human aspects play a central role, examination of different software engineering topics from the human perspective, exploration of how the awareness to human aspects of SE may foster organizational processes, and teaching human aspects of SE.
