🏅Grateful for our 2 Most Influential Paper (N-10) awards at #ICSE2026. 1️⃣ Most Influential Paper (#MIP) Award: Automatically Learning Semantic Features for Defect Prediction 2️⃣ Most Influential SEIP Paper (#MIPS) Award Retrospective: Online Defect Prediction for Imbalanced Data

Congratulations, Dr. Shangshu Qian. I am very proud of you. #commencement

We encourage undergraduate, master’s, and early-stage PhD students interested in programming languages to apply for PLMW at PLDI 2026. It is a great opportunity to learn from researchers, build connections, and explore future directions in PL. Apply here: pldi26.sigplan.org/home/PLMW…

Looking forward to giving the #MIP talk with Song during the #ICSE2026 Awards Session on April 15 (tinyurl.com/icse16mip). @ICSEconf Paper: tinyurl.com/ICSE16DBN Journal: tinyurl.com/TSEDBN I’m thankful these ideas continue to have lasting impact 10 years later. 🙏

These two papers almost bookend a story. The 1st was among the earliest to show how #DeepLearning could be used for software defect prediction. The 2nd focused on the deployment in practice: imbalanced data and future-data leakage. #SoftwareEngineering #ICSE2026

AWS Security Agent is now generally available. Scale security testing across your application portfolio with on-demand penetration testing that matches your development velocity. By conducting tailored attack scenarios, AWS Security Agent identifies validated vulnerabilities with reproducible proof and actionable fixes.

Excited to share that I will join NUS (@NUSComputing) as an Assistant Professor this Aug! 🎉 I’m recruiting Ph.D./RAs/interns interested in Program Analysis, Code LLMs, and Agents. 🔥 Self-motivated students with strong backgrounds are especially welcome.

🚀 Recruiting students for UIUC summer research in LLM4Code, software–AI synergy, software dependability … Work on cutting-edge SE AI/Robotics research with us. 📅 Apply by April 15 🔗 forms.gle/BUS8e3RfG946rEp68 @LingmingZhang @yiling__LOU @tianyin_xu @tan_hwei @DrWingLam

From April 12–18, 2026, the world’s premier software engineering conference will bring together approximately 2,000 top researchers, practitioners, innovators, and students in Rio de Janeiro. Current sponsors and sponsorship opportunities at conf.researchr.org/info/icse…

We measured the effects of more AI coding agents, with the same conclusion: Development velocity (commits, lines added) increases, but it is short lived, and it comes at the cost of code quality and technical debt (static analysis warnings and code complexity go up substantially)

Call for Papers: AI Models for Code Improvement. 🧠✨ 📅 Submit by 24 Oct 2025. Special issue of @ieeesoftware AI is revolutionizing code refactoring, bug fixing & software maintenance. We're seeking papers on how LLMs & other models are transforming dev workflows

Missed presenting your ICSE/FSE/ASE paper due to various issues? FSE 2026 has a Re-routed Presentations track—bring your already-accepted research to Montreal (Jul 5–9). Submit the short HotCRP form by Feb 25 (AoE). #FSE2026 #SoftwareEngineering #ICSE

On March 2, CEO and Chair of @AMD @LisaSu joins President Mung Chiang for “Strategic Circuits: How University and Industry Partnerships Will Power the AI Era,” a Presidential Lecture on the role high-performance computing plays in advancing innovation. purdue.university/46PVOuP

Sequoia partner @sonyatweetybird says we're going from the age of product-led growth to the age of agent-led growth. "You see this most clearly if you're using Claude Code actively. It says, 'Hey, for a database, you should use Supabase. For hosting, use Vercel.' It's choosing for you, the stuff you should be using." "Product-led growth brought us closer to the vision of 'best product wins,' but ultimately people are still lazy. They can't read all the reviews, and they kind of default to what looks cool on the website." "Whereas your agent has infinite time to go and make these choices for you. It can go and read all the documentation, read all the user comments, and figure out [what you need] for your use case."

🚀 Excited to share the preview launch of AWS Security Agent! A rewarding year working with amazing scientists and engineers to bring this from design to code to launch. Learn more 👇 tinyurl.com/AWSSecurityAgent #AWS #AI #Agents #Security #AWSSecurityAgent #reInvent
