Reasoning Beyond Prediction: From Data-Driven to Causal Software Engineering
Roberto Pietrantuono, Luca Giamattei, Stefano Russo
Software engineering is an intellectually demanding, creative discipline that juggles a web of interdependent tasks to design, build, and assure the quality of increasingly complex…
Causal Software Engineering: A Vision and Roadmap
Roberto Pietrantuono, Luca Giamattei, Stefano Russo +2
Software engineering increasingly involves making high-stakes decisions under uncertainty, using signals from code, field data, and socio-technical processes. Recent AI-driven supp…
Sustainability Is Not Linear: Quantifying Performance, Energy, and Privacy Trade-offs in On-Device Intelligence
Eziyo Ehsani, Luca Giamattei, Ivano Malavolta +1
The migration of Large Language Models (LLMs) from cloud clusters to edge devices promises enhanced privacy and offline accessibility, but this transition encounters a harsh realit…
Causal Reasoning in Software Quality Assurance: A Systematic Review
Luca Giamattei, Antonio Guerriero, Roberto Pietrantuono +1
Context: Software Quality Assurance (SQA) is a fundamental part of software engineering to ensure stakeholders that software products work as expected after release in operation. M…
Reinforcement Learning for Online Testing of Autonomous Driving Systems: a Replication and Extension Study
Luca Giamattei, Matteo Biagiola, Roberto Pietrantuono +2
In a recent study, Reinforcement Learning (RL) used in combination with many-objective search, has been shown to outperform alternative techniques (random search and many-objective…
Reasoning-Based Software Testing
Luca Giamattei, Roberto Pietrantuono, Stefano Russo
With software systems becoming increasingly pervasive and autonomous, our ability to test for their quality is severely challenged. Many systems are called to operate in uncertain…
