Reminder: EURISE Workshop on Software Quality

The EURISE Workshop on software quality will take place in Utrecht, NL, on 26 March 2020. There are still a few places left.

The topics to be addressed range from quality measures and criteria to implementation through automation and continuous integration and how their adoption towards ‘business as usual’ can be enabled.

The registration is open on this page: https://euriseworkshop.sciencesconf.org/registration

More information about the workshop can be found on the DHd-Blog and on the event page: https://euriseworkshop.sciencesconf.

EURISE Workshop: Software Quality through Automation and Testing. 26 Mar 2020


EURISE Workshop: Software Quality through Automation and Testing

The EURISE Network invites you to participate in their joint workshop on software quality.
The workshop will take place in Utrecht, NL, on March 26. 2020.

The topics to be addressed range from quality measures and criteria to implementation through automation and continuous integration and how their adoption towards ‘business as usual’ can be enabled.

About the workshop

Reliable services in research infrastructures can only be provided with good technology as the backbone.

Implementing quality control is therefore a core objective to improve services offered to users. Awareness of the need for software quality is rising throughout the research community.

Software Sustainability within Research Infrastructures – EURISE Workshop

A small follow-up on the EURISE Workshop in Utrecht on 12-13 March 2019:

About the EURISE Network:
The infrastructures CESSDA, CLARIN and DARIAH develop and provide services by and for the research community of the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences. While their individual foci address different scholarly needs of the various disciplines, the underlying technological challenges of distributed digital infrastructures are very similar. The EURISE Network was established to facilitate collaboration in this area and to align technological strategies among the infrastructures and with the wider Research and Software Engineering community and their intersection in particular, https://eurise-network.github.io/.

Workshop „Software Sustainability: Quality and Re-usability“

As part of ongoing efforts to align technology across the three Pan-European infrastructures for the Social Sciences, Arts, and Humanities, representatives from Cessda, CLARIN, and DARIAH held a workshop on “Software Sustainability: Quality and Re-usability”, previously announced here, in Berlin on October 9/10th.

With participants from Austria, Germany, Great Britain, Norway and The Netherlands representing developers, users, service operators and IT managers, the talks and discussions covered a wide range of topics related to software sustainability. Speakers presented work already accomplished as part of the tasks the infrastructures have undertaken in their efforts to become operational. Among these are the DARIAH-NL Software Quality Guidelines and the Cessda Software Maturity Model, which both define evaluation criteria for software products. Their approaches differ, in that the former focuses on explicit implementation guidelines, while the latter, modelled on NASA’s Reuse Readiness Levels, describes a generalised framework for evaluating a given software product. While criteria are also an important part of the DARIAH-DE Service Life Cycle, its focus is on describing processes and necessary considerations when taking software from initial design through development and testing to production use.

The overall problems these approaches try to address are similar to the challenges the software industry is facing: training, quality management, and dealing with an ever-growing technical debt are challenges that need to be addressed and re-evaluated on a constant basis.

Workshop-Ankündigung: Software Sustainability

Workshop „Software Sustainability: Quality and Re-usability“
Berlin Centre Marc Bloch, October 9/10th 2017

Sustainability of its software and services is one of the core technological challenges research infrastructures – not only in the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences – are facing.

Various efforts are being undertaken to address different aspects of the overall problem. This workshops brings together leading experts from the digital research infrastructures CESSDA,
CLARIN and DARIAH in an effort to engage with the wider community. Its purpose is to discuss whether it is possible to combine existing approaches into a set of guides and handbooks to enable developers to ensure software quality from the start and collaboratively with infrastructure providers to create a service that is than usable by end users.

As part of the ESFRI process, the field of digital research infrastructures is being advanced through individual projects. These have worked on Software Maturity Models (CESSDA) and a Service Life Cycle (DARIAH) and created general Software Quality Guidelines (CLARIAH), informing the basis of all development efforts and processes. During the workshop, we will be introduced to these concepts and the problems they address. On the second day, we will spread into group sessions to discuss possible connections between them as well as the missing links.

The workshop is open to anyone interested in software quality and sustainability.
