Hybrid meetings, which combine in-person and virtual participants, are becoming increasingly common in modern agile workplaces. Despite their prevalence, these meetings often lead to asymmetric participation. In this study, we explored the nature of participation asymmetries in hybrid meetings and identified the technical and social factors contributing to these disparities. We analyzed anonymized access card data, observed hybrid meetings, and conducted interviews with employees in a large-scale Norwegian software development organization. Our findings reveal that the employees preferred to go to the office on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. In hybrid meetings, we found reduced engagement from virtual participants compared to those co-located at the office, especially in the absence of a clear speaking order. Social-driven asymmetries included difficulties in entering conversations, missing remarks and nonverbal cues, and being left out of pre- and post-meeting discussions. Physical presence in meetings was found to be crucial for newly onboarded team members. Future research should investigate what fosters inclusive meeting practices to improve engagement and collaboration in hybrid work environments.

My research explores the adoption of InnerSource, a practice that integrates open source methodologies within organizations to foster collaboration and overcome the traditional silo mentality. InnerSource and agile implementations share many values such as transparency, employee empowerment, and a flexible response to change. InnerSource adoption can come before, after, or in parallel withagile transformations. Despite the increasing recognition of InnerSource as a pivotal driver for developer productivity and its growing presence in industry discussions, academic research on the subject remains in its infancy. Leveraging my involvement withthe InnerSource Commons community and drawing from Activity theory, my research aims to fill critical gaps in our understanding of InnerSource adoption. Specifically, it investigates the activities organizations engage in to enable InnerSource, identifies blockers hindering its implementation, and proposes effective strategies to counteract these challenges. At the XP 2024 PhD Symposium, I intend to share some preliminary findings of my research, derived from a Systematic Literature Review and a pilot study with an InnerSource practitioner working group. My research not only seeks to advance theoretical knowledge in the field but also offers practical insights for organizations striving to change software development practices, contributing to a more collaborative and efficient software development environment.

Large Language Models (LLM) are reshaping the field of softwareengineering (SE). they enable innovative methods for executing many SE tasks, including automation of entire process of software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). However, only a limited number of existing works have thoroughly explored the potential of LLM based AI agents to automate the entire lifecycle in SE. In this paper, we demonstrate the success of our initial efforts in automating the entire lifecycle autonomously based on given software specification as input, which has shown remarkable efficiency and significantly reduced development time. Our preliminary results suggest that the careful implementation of AI agents can enhance the development lifecycle. We aim to streamline the SDLC by integrating all phases into an AI-driven chat interface, enhancing efficiency and transparency. Furthermore, we seek to enhance collaboration, creating an environment where stakeholders from various backgrounds can contribute, review, and refine ideas and requirements in real-time. this forward-looking direction guarantees to redefine the paradigms of SE and also make software creation more inclusive, collaborative, and efficient.

Developers use different means to document the security concerns of their code. Because of all of these opportunities, they may forget where the information is stored, or others may not be aware of it, and leave it unmaintained for so long that it becomes obsolete, if not useless. In this work, we analyzed different sources of code documentation from four large-scale, real-world, open-source projects in an industrial setting to understand where developers report their security concerns. In particular, we manually inspected 2.559 instances taken from source code comments, commit messages, and issue trackers. Overall, we found that developers prefer to document security concerns in source code comments and issue trackers. We also found that the longer the comments stay unfixed, the more likely they remain unfixed. thus, to create awareness among developers, we implemented a pipeline to remind them about the introduction or removal of comments pointing to a security problem.

agile Development sounds great, but it depends on the ability to determine the details of scope as the system is developed, driven by feedback from customers and users. Much software development is done under contract, where there is often a requirement to determine the details of the system early in the development process.
