Invitation to the SE Virtual Winter Day on 08 December 2020 at 16:30.

A new textbook on the topic of systems benchmarking by Samuel Kounev, Klaus-Dieter Lange, and Jóakim von Kistowski has just been published by Springer International Publishing.

The article "Serverless Applications: Why, When, and How?" co-authored by Simon Eismann, Johannes Grohmann, Nikolas Herbst, Prof. Dr. Samuel Kounev, and researchers from VU Amsterdam, ESPOL, University of Gothenburg and DLR has been accepted for publication in IEEE Software.

All planned courses (lectures, seminars, and practical courses) of the chair in the summer semester 2020 will take place using online services.

At first glance, supermarket queues and the cloud do not have much in common. In his presentation, André Bauer proved the opposite - and in just three minutes. Scientific facts and lots of entertainment value secured him first place at FameLab in Regensburg.

André Bauer performed at the Münchner Kammerspiele to convince the audience on the big stage how exciting computer science can be. In creative 10 minutes he presented his research and the research of the chair. In the end he achieved the runner-up rank.

The best Bachelor and Master Thesis students of 2019 at the Chair of Computer Science II (Software Engeering) have been honored with the Würzburg Software Engeering Awards sponsored by Bosch Rexroth and Infosim.

Samuel Kounev was elected as Co-Chair of the Steering Committee of the new IEEE ACSOS Conference, a merger of the IEEE ICAC and IEEE SASO conferences. Christian Krupitzer was appointed to serve as Publicity & Administration Assistant for the new conference.

The 10th Symposium on Software Performance 2019 (SSP2019) will take place on 4.-6. November, 2019 in Würzburg, Germany and is organized by the Chair of Software Engineering (Informatik II) with Nikolas Herbst serving as program committee chair.

Jóakim von Kistowski, Tobias Wahl (Student), and Samuel Kounev from the Chair of Computer Science II win the Best Industry Paper Award at the 10th ACM/SPEC International Conference on Performance Engineering (ICPE) 2019 in Mumbai, India.
