The SWEBOK Team (led by Prof. Washizaki) hosted the inaugural Town Hall meeting for the IEEE Computer Society’s SWEBOK Guide V5 initiative in partnership with the IEEE Japan Office

The SWEBOK Team (led by Prof. Washizaki) hosted the inaugural Town Hall meeting for the IEEE Computer Society’s SWEBOK Guide V5 initiative in partnership with the IEEE Japan Office. More than 140 participants joined us live, resulting in lively and inspiring discussions. Thank you all for your participation. Your engagement, suggestions, and feedback are truly appreciated – they are vital as we work together to shape the future of the Software Engineering Body of Knowledge. If you were unable to attend, the introductory slide deck for the V5 plan is available here. https://jp.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/SWEBOK-Townhall-Slides-20260928.pdf

We will also share the event recording soon, allowing you to watch and contribute your insights at your convenience. Our team will be circulating a questionnaire to gather additional feedback, as community input is essential to this process. We look forward to continuing this Town Hall series, so please stay tuned!

 

Our lab has issued a press release titled “mkcheck2: A Highly Efficient and Accurate Approach for Build Dependency Verification”

Our lab has issued a press release titled “mkcheck2: A Highly Efficient and Accurate Approach for Build Dependency Verification,” based on the seminal work primarily led by Mr. Yuta Saito and Prof. Kazunori Sakamoto, presented at IEEE/ACM ICSE 2026.

Its implementation is available at https://github.com/katei-lab/mkcheck2 Take a look!

The proposed approach significantly reduces performance overhead, making continuous dependency verification in large-scale projects practical. Build systems are a fundamental component of modern software development. Dependency-related errors represent a significant portion of build errors in large-scale projects. However, existing tools for detecting these errors struggle to achieve both high performance and accuracy. In a new study, researchers developed mkcheck2, which reduces performance overhead by up to 99.7% while maintaining accuracy through an efficient eBPF-based system call tracing method and incremental analysis, thereby making continuous dependency verification practical.

Our campus hosted the Tokyo & North Kanto regional round of the 25th ET software design contest (ET_Robocon)

Our campus hosted the Tokyo & North Kanto regional round of the 25th ET software design contest (ET_Robocon), which provides engineers and students to study model-based systems engineering with robotics control. Participants made excellent efforts in robot control and modeling. In the age of physical AI, this contest’s significance continues to grow.

SWEBOK Guide V5 Town Hall on September 28th

The IEEE Computer Society, in cooperation with the IEEE Japan Office, is pleased to invite you to the following online webinar as part of the “SWEBOK Guide V5 Town Hall Series.” Don’t miss it!

*Call for Participation*
SWEBOK Guide V5 Town Hall Series
– Shaping the future of the body of knowledge in software engineering –
2026 September 28th MON, 1:30pm – 3:00pm UTC, online (Zoom)
https://jp.ieee.org/event/swebok-guide-v5-town-hall-series/

The Guide to the Software Engineering Body of Knowledge (SWEBOK Guide, https://www.computer.org/…/bodies…/software-engineering ), published by the IEEE Computer Society (IEEE CS), captures generally accepted, consensus-driven knowledge shaped through continuous interaction between software engineering research and practice. Its latest editions, SWEBOK Guide V4.0 (2024) and V4.0a (2025), reflect modern engineering paradigms and emerging areas, including Agile and DevOps, software architecture, security, and AI.
IEEE CS has begun work on the next edition, SWEBOK Guide V5, aiming to move to a five-year update cycle rather than the longer intervals of previous editions. The SWEBOK Editors are currently designing V5’s fundamental architecture, its evolution process, and candidate topics for inclusion.
For V5, the Editors are considering an architecture that combines a stable core body of knowledge with evolving knowledge supplements. The core would provide continuity for long-term curricula, professional development, and certification, while supplements could evolve more rapidly in response to emerging technologies, practices, and risks. Potential supplement areas include AI and software engineering, sustainable software engineering, and research software.
The Editors are now seeking early feedback from the broader software engineering community—including industry professionals, academic institutions, and standards-setting bodies—on the proposed architecture, candidate topics, and the process for evolving the Guide.
A series of interactive town halls will provide opportunities to discuss these ideas and gather community input. Your feedback will contribute to the development of a SWEBOK V5 Master Plan, targeted for release at the SWEBOK Summit 2027 in April (https://conf.researchr.org/home/icse-2027/swebok-2027). Join us in shaping the future of the Software Engineering Body of Knowledge!
