DIVERSO LAB’s Latest Advances in AI, Software Product Lines, and Smart Agriculture

Announcement, Events, Product lines, Seminar, Uncategorized
Following the recent participation of our researchers Francisco José Domínguez-Mayo and Francisco Sesbastián Benítez  at the FOSD (Feature-Oriented Software Development) Meeting—a prominent international gathering dedicated to advancing research in software variability and software product lines, see more here —we held an internal seminar at our facilities. Upon their return, Francisco J. and Francisco S. shared their experiences and the presentations they delivered at the conference with the entire DIVERSO LAB team from the University of Seville. This knowledge-sharing session focused on the application of software engineering and Artificial Intelligence to the agricultural sector.Towards the Systematic Engineering of Intelligent SystemsThe first presentation was given by Francisco J. Domínguez-Mayo, who introduced the line of work titled "Toward an Innovation-Oriented SPL Methodology for On-Premise Intelligent Systems". During his exposition, he emphasized the need…

Software Variability as a new Computational Thinking dimension

Software Variability as a new Computational Thinking dimension

Announcement, Product lines, Uncategorized
A new Open Educational Resource (OER) has been released to help bring software variability — an emerging and research-supported dimension of computational thinking — into the classroom.The resource encourages students to move beyond creating isolated programs and instead learn how to reason about families of related solutions through configurable systems.Designed mainly for teachers and students in secondary education and vocational training, the OER connects computational thinking with everyday situations such as customizing a smartphone or choosing options in a video game.Through interactive activities, modeling exercises, and programming tasks, learners explore how shared structures can generate multiple variations.The resource is organized into five modules, including an introduction to variability concepts, modeling with diagrams and the Universal Variability Language (UVL), metaprogramming using Snap!, a configurable maze game project, and a gamified assessment…
