Planning Future Directions in SE & AI

这笔赠款将用于参加软件工程（SE）和人工智能（AI）研究人员的会议，以促进这两个领域之间的协同效应。 在几个人工智能领域的进展，如数据挖掘，自然语言理解和约束求解，已经准备好在许多领域的应用，包括SE。SE作为人工智能的一个领域--自动化程序员的活动--仍然是人工智能的长期愿景。SE目标，例如基于组件的可进化软件，包含有效的世界模型和正确的代码，对AI和其他领域一样重要。研讨会将探讨各领域之间的协同增效作用，并作为未来互动的规划会议。

The grant funds travel to a meeting of Software Engineering (SE) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) researchers to promote synergies between the two fields. Advances in several AI areas, such as data mining, natural language understanding and constraint solving, have become ready for application in many domains, including SE. SE as an area for AI -- automating the activities of programmers -- is still a long-term vision for AI. SE goals, such as component-based, evolvable software containing valid world models and correct code, are important to AI as they are to other fields. The workshop will explore synergies between the fields and serve as a planning meeting for future interactions.
