How AI Changes DevOps Performance: A Mechanism-Based Simulation
Mamdouh Alenezi
Context. AI tools for software development have progressed from code completion to autonomous agents, yet evidence on their effects on DORA performance is mixed, mostly cross-secti…
Reshaping the SDLC for Data- and AI-Centric Systems
Mamdouh Alenezi
The traditional Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) assumes that system behavior is determined primarily by source code, allowing correctness to be specified, implemented, and ve…
Educating the Agentic Engineer: Curricula, Collaboration, and Continuous Learning in the AI Era
Mamdouh Alenezi
Generative and agentic artificial intelligence (AI) are reconfiguring software and systems engineering from a discipline centered on human authorship of artifacts to one focused on…
Specification-Driven Development as the Foundation of AI-Native Enterprise Software Engineering
Mamdouh Alenezi
Large language models (LLMs) and agentic AI are shifting software engineering from manual coding toward intent specification, architecture, and governance. Two paradigms have emerg…
From Determinism to Delegation: AI-Native Software Engineering and the Evolution of the Agentic Engineer
Mamdouh Alenezi
Software engineering is experiencing its most significant transformation since the emergence of high-level programming languages. As large language models (LLMs) increasingly enabl…
The Rise of AI-Native Software Engineering: Implications for Practice, Education, and the Future Workforce
Mamdouh Alenezi

Human-AI Collaboration and the Transformation of Software Engineering Work
Mamdouh Alenezi
The integration of Generative AI (GenAI) and Agentic AI into software development is reconfiguring software engineering from an activity centered on human authorship of code into a…
Rethinking Software Engineering for Agentic AI Systems
Mamdouh Alenezi
The rapid proliferation of large language models (LLMs) and agentic AI systems has created an unprecedented abundance of automatically generated code, challenging the traditional s…
From Prompt-Response to Goal-Directed Systems: The Evolution of Agentic AI Software Architecture
Mamdouh Alenezi
Agentic AI denotes an architectural transition from stateless, prompt-driven generative models toward goal-directed systems capable of autonomous perception, planning, action, and…
Auditable DevOps Automation via VSM and GQM
Mamdouh Alenezi
DevOps automation can accelerate software delivery, yet many organizations still struggle to justify and prioritize automation work in terms of strategic project-management outcome…
