Title: Tool-Driven Technology Transfer in Software Engineering
Abstract: This talk presents the tool-driven technology transfer process ABB Corporate Research applies in selected software engineering University collaborations. As an example, we have created an add-in to a popular UML tool and developed the tooling in close interaction with the target users. Centering the technology transfer around tool implementations brings many benefits such as the need to make conceptual contributions applicable and the ability to quickly benefit from the new concepts. A challenge to this form of technology transfer is the long-term commitment to the maintenance of the tooling, which we try to address by creating an open developer community. Tool-driven technology transfer projects provide on instrument to bring advanced software engineering technologies into our organization.
Bio: Dr.-Ing. Heiko Koziolek is a Senior Principal Scientist at ABB Corporate Research in Ladenburg, Germany. He leads research projects on software architectures for industrial process control. He also consults ABB software development units for the design of large-scale software systems. He studied computer science at the Carl-von-Ossietzky University of Oldenburg and obtained a PhD in software engineering. His research is concerned with performance prediction for software systems as well as analyzing software maintainability. He is co-author of the book “Modeling and Simulating Software Architecture” published by MIT Press in 2016. He has been serving on the program committees of ICSE and ICSA, is currently an editorial board member of “Journal of Systems and Software”, and reviewed for “IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering” and “IEEE Software”. Additionally he is a member of the “Plattform Industrie 4.0”, working group “Reference Architecture and Standards”.
