SEISN (softwareengineering and Information systems Network), a research project supported by the British research council EPSRC, aims to promote the understanding of the two research communities and practitioners. the network focuses on the exchange of ideas and enables these communities to clarify their beliefs and present experiences, findings and views. this paper summaries the work of this research network, and investigates where there is common ground between the IS and SE communities and practitioners and where differences remain. With discussions on the key issues, the paper shows the future directions of research in softwareengineering and information systems.

Various news sites exist today where internet audience can read the most recent news and see what other people think about. Most sites do not organize comments well and do not filter irrelevant content. Due to this limitation, readers who are interested to know other people's opinion regarding any specific topic, have to manually follow relevant comments, reading and filtering a lot of irrelevant text. In this work, we introduce a new approach for retrieving and ranking the relevant comments for a given paragraph of news article and vice versa. We use Topic-Sensitive PageRank for ranking comments/paragraphs relevant for a user-specified paragraph/comment. the browser extension implementing our approach (called SmartNews) for Yahoo! News is publicly available.

A generalized logical model for CASE tools, which is designed as a 'methodology generator' for system development, is presented. the model is applied using the SuitCASE workstation, which enables all parties involved in system development (organizations, computer units, software houses, consultants, project managers, professional training institutes) to computerize development methodologies and to build up a set of computerized standards for supporting all life-cycle phases. During a one-year trial period, about 50 projects were implemented withthe help of the software, within the framework of system analysis courses. It soon became clear that the model--which was initially constructed for learning purposes--is also effective for organizations, computer units, and software houses who are involved with developing information systems. Experience running the software during a two-year period demonstrated that the process of adapting to the product is simple and convenient. Full control of the operation kit of the product requires an investment of 4 hours of training and exercises. the most sophisticated operation kit requires 5 additional hours of training.

this paper explores the use of powerful, free computer algebra system (CAS) software for the K-12 and university science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) classrooms. Educational institutions are sorely in need of affordable technology. the financial reality facing many schools prohibits the allocation of limited resources for appropriate mathematical software. the free mathematics add-in offered to license holders of Microsoft Word 2007 and 2010 offers a prudent solution to this challenge. With particular strengths of graphing in two- and three-dimensions, Word's. add-in is a viable choice. Recently released, Microsoft Mathematics Beta 4.0 includes a full featured, virtual graphing calculator designed to work just like a handheld calculator. Additional math tools help users evaluate triangles, convert from one system of units to another, and solve systems of equations. this software is free to all users. Graphics and mathematics results can be inserted into text documents from either program.

We have a software visualisation architecture that requires tools to develop visualisations from XML execution traces and integrate the visualisations into user's web environments. Most existing web software visualisation systems create 2D visualisations and if they do use 3D they are using technologies that are outdated, not designed for the web, and hard to extend. We are building a tool that transforms XML execution traces into X3D - the Web3D Consortium's open standard for web 3D graphics - web enabled visualisations and exploring how suitable X3D is for use in software visualisation. Our tool and visualisations will help developers to understand the structure and behaviour of software for reuse, maintenance, re-engineering, and reverse engineering.

the relationships and interdependencies between software requirements and the architectures of software-intensive systems are described in the Twin Peaks model. the fundamental idea of the Twin Peaks model is that Requirements engineering and software Architecture should not be treated in isolation. Instead, we need to progressively discover and specify requirements while concurrently exploring alternative architectural solutions. However, bridging the gap between Requirements engineering and software Architecture has mainly been discussed independently in the respective communities. therefore, this ICSE workshop aims at bringing together researchers, practitioners and educators from the Requirements engineering and software Architecture fields to jointly explore the strong interdependencies between requirements and architecture. Based on the results from previous editions of the workshop, this edition focuses on agile software development contexts and on exploring lightweight techniques for integrating requirements and architectural thinking.
