Software development is a sociotechnical and human-centered endeavor in which human factors directly influence quality, productivity, and innovation capacity. In this context, career development in co…
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used for recommendation reranking, but their listwise predictions can depend on the order in which candidates are presented. This creates a mismatch betwe…
Open-source software (OSS) projects rely on effective newcomer onboarding to sustain their communities. OSS projects widely adopt "good first issue" (GFI) labels to highlight beginner-friendly tasks. …
As web browsers increasingly restrict client-side tracking, the web tracking ecosystem is shifting from client-side to server-side tracking (SST). In SST, the browser sends tracking requests to an int…
The rapid proliferation of harmful and emotionally damaging content on social media platforms has intensified concerns regarding societal harm. While content moderation efforts primarily focus on dete…
Fostering coordinated pro-environmental behaviors at scale is a key challenge for climate mitigation. Individual actions only generate meaningful impact when they diffuse widely and become socially co…
Generative AI has rapidly entered education through free consumer tools, outpacing the ability of schools and universities to respond. Now a new wave of more autonomous agentic AI systems--with the ca…
We introduce the problem of adaptive self-organization in which the nodes of an anonymous, synchronous dynamic network must distributively change the collective distribution of their responses (or "co…
FlyClient is a lightweight blockchain verification protocol that enables proof-of-work validation using minimal data, making it ideal for resource-constrained environments like mobile wallets, Interne…
Training large language models requires jointly configuring two interdependent aspects of the system: the global batch size, which governs statistical efficiency, and the 3D parallelism strategy, whic…
Financial misconceptions carry direct economic costs, from panic selling to equity market avoidance, yet they are notoriously resistant to correction. Traditional financial literacy interventions are …
Rapid environmental change and advances in data-driven analysis highlight the need not only to use computational tools, but also to foster understanding of the natural world and inspire creativity. Ph…
Explaining why aggregated measures change is a critical challenge in data analytics that existing systems struggle to address. While current attribution methods exist, they lack a unified solution tha…
Multimodal recommendation improves user modeling by integrating collaborative signals with heterogeneous item content. In real applications, user interests evolve over time and exhibit nonstationary d…
We present the SCenario Specification Language (SCSL) for automated generation and execution of system-level tests. SCSL targets complex distributed systems (e.g., collaborating autonomous robots) whe…
Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized the field of natural language processing. However, they exhibit some limitations, including a lack of reliability and transparency: they may hallucinat…
We propose a human in the loop approach for black-box testing of Functional Mock-up Units (FMUs) using Large Language Models (LLMs). The goal is to reduce the manual effort in defining test scenarios …
Introduction: Semantic search, which retrieves documents based on conceptual similarity rather than keyword matching, offers substantial advantages for retrieval of clinical information. However, depl…
DNA-based storage has emerged as a promising alternative to traditional data storage methods, offering unmatched advantages in data density, longevity, and sustainability. Two main approaches have dev…
In everyday life, physical effort is often minimized and convenience is prioritized, making it difficult for many people to sustain light exercise and stretching despite well-known long-term benefits.…
