SUMMARY: Software is vital to America's global competitiveness,
innovation, and national security. The economy, the nation's
infrastructure, education, and healthcare all depend on software.
Through AI engineering, the U.S. has made significant strides in
healthcare, energy, transportation, and space exploration. Software
engineering and AI underpin the industries that have

created huge economic benefits for the country. This workshop will
explore the fundamental research needed to support progress across
these critical domains.
DATES: June 20-21, 2023.
ADDRESSES: The workshop on U.S. Leadership in Software Engineering & AI
Engineering: Critical Needs & Priorities will take place on June 20 and
21, from 9:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (ET), at the National Science
Foundation, 2415 Eisenhower Ave, Alexandria, VA 22314.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Overview. This notice is issued on behalf of the NITRD Software
Productivity, Sustainability, and Quality (SPSQ) Interagency Working
Group (IWG). The NITRD SPSQ IWG and Carnegie Mellon University (CMU)
Software Engineering Institute (SEI) are partnering on this workshop to
inform a community strategy for building and maintaining U.S.
leadership in software engineering and AI engineering, and positively
impact progress in multiple application domains. AI Engineering is a
field of research and practice that combines the principles of software
engineering, systems engineering, computer science, and human-centered
design to enable implementation of AI systems in accordance with human
needs for mission outcomes. Software engineering is a field of study
and practice that focuses on designing, developing, testing, and
maintaining software systems. It encompasses a systematic approach to
building high-quality software that meets user requirements, is
reliable, scalable, and maintainable.
Workshop goals are to:
<bullet> Identify research questions that excite the computing
community and spark new collaborations.
<bullet> Identify addendums or updates to the National Agenda for
Software Engineering roadmap.
<bullet> Produce a report summarizing challenges and strategic
priorities for building and maintaining U.S. leadership in software
engineering & AI engineering for the advanced computing and software
community.
Workshop Objective. The workshop will provide an opportunity for
discussions on research areas for the future of software engineering
that are critical for multidisciplinary research. Several Federal
agencies, as well as researchers and companies are working to chart the
solution space. Federal leaders with an interest in software and AI
engineering, research funding agencies, research laboratories, mission
agencies, and commercial organizations with relevant experience and
best practices should attend.
