New Software Engineering Trends

As an undergraduate of software engineering degree latest software engineering trends must have to follow. So for that madam Sarasi Senadheera has arranged a visiting lecture session from hSenidMobile Company. Representing hSenidMobile Company cam a Software Engineer and HR manager to share their experience and knowledge with us.

In early there was communication with people. Then started communication with hardware and live ware.After that there was hardware to hardware communication. It introduce called IOT(Internet Of Things). Upcoming trend is communication with pets.

what Programming language we have to study and  how to work with new programming language.
 it was quite interesting speech .also he ask questions about programming knowledge that we know

                                        Agile Software development

Systems are becoming increasingly reliant on software due to needs for rapid fielding of interoperability, net-centricity, and rapid adaptation to change. The need for rapid adaptation and releases led to increased interest in agile methods of software development.

   
                                Project Management

Approaches like Scrum and XP accelerate project cycles require developers to interact with their managers more frequently but for shorter periods as daily contact is the norm in most agile processes. Many developers might feel that it is micromanagement and so project managers should try to help solving any obstacles quickly and not complain if a task takes too long without knowing the reason for it. Also since we take small portions of requirements at a time to work on there could be possible chance of development that could take longer time than expected causing a delay in delivery or release dates. Project managers should be able to convince upper management that the process would get completed on time even-though it looks like in Agile methodology project will go on and on forever.

                           

                                     Real Analytics

Many organizations began to see information automation outweigh business process automation as their highest priority area. Analytics offer improved visibility to drive operational efficiencies, 

as well as a platform for growth by addressing heart-of the-business questions that could guide decisions, yield new insights and help predict the future of business. Leading organizations are launching broad initiatives with executive-level sponsorship, ready and eager to achieve their vision via real analytics. Due to exploding data volumes and regulators demands deeper insight into risks, exposure and public responsiveness are much needed.

                                           Applied Mobility

In today’s age of technology what really matter is harnessing available networks,form factor, user interface and raw device computing power to create rich yet simple and intuitive apps to solve real business problems. These solutions can be as simple as placing a mobile layer over existing offerings and business processes which conducts business as usual, but through channels independent of physical locations. These new mobile solutions serve the full spectrum of transactional, analytical and social computing capabilities that are having different design and deployment concepts which is more focused in scope and simple in execution from user perspective compared to multipurpose feature-rich enterprise applications.

The Mobile applications are essentially powerful that they are elegant solutions to well-defined problems, and designed for operations on-the-go. Companies are rethinking business processes and enabling new business models that would not have been possible without mobile technology. Evolutions in location-based services, social networks, mobile payment processing, low-cost device add-ons and integration with enterprise systems has led to the potential for employees, customers and suppliers to consume and produce sophisticated information, goods and services from anywhere. And with the extension of mobile solutions to sensors and actuators in physical goods and equipment, otherwise known as asset intelligence there is the potential for almost anything to become part of the mobile solution footprint.

                                               Capability Clouds

Capability clouds move beyond the building blocks of capacity to deliverfinished services that directly address business objectives and enterprise goals Instead of dealing with machine images or database instances, the discussion shifts to the analytics cloud, the testing cloud or the sales cloud and help to focus on a more important set of values. Also with the advent of capability clouds helps focusing on accelerating time-to-results, adding new functionality or changing business processes and business models rather than cost of ownership and efficiency issues. It is relatively easy for a business unit leader to buy a software-as-a-service tool for point solutions such as workforce planning or compensation management; the main requirement is simply a corporate credit card.

There have been three main drivers of cloud adoption thus far: a preference for operating expense over capital expense; speed to solution; and flexible, scalable access to specializedresources – be they technology, software or people. The capability cloud can add opportunities for agility and innovationin how business processes even business models are acquired composed and revised. For an example the analytics cloud may go beyond just delivering analytics databases, models and tools and offer PHD-level statisticians applying the art of the science where you only pay for the level of service that is needed.

                                                        Big Data

Three big trends have shaped application development over the last several years: cloud, agile, and DevOps. =In 2017, we’re going to see these trends hit data in a big way. We already see the effect of cloud in architectures that separate compute and data. Cloud-based blob stores like S3 have become the new data lake for many organizations. Agile practices will increasingly influence the work of data engineers and data scientists, enabling them to benefit from fast feedback cycles and continuous delivery of value. Finally, we’ll see database administrators leverage DevOps practices to automate deployment and orchestration of their data services, assisted by offerings like Pivotal Cloud Foundry’s data services that enable developer self-service through automation.

                                              Software Process

Social computing systems should be able to access the existing mobile functions such as e-mail, messages, knowledge and content management solutions and access to transactional applications and 

information systems. Combination of data, service, event-based integration and mechanisms for interacting with externally hosted platforms capabilities needs to be made a part of Software process.

                                                 Security and Ethics

Password protection, encryption, controlling device administrative rights (system settings, permissions to directly install applications) and managing entitlements to back-end services must be implemented to provide a secure data access path to prevent unauthorized access from unknown and known sources.

                                                            Ethics

Systems are capable of understanding a person’s taste and requirements.That doesn’t mean that he should be provided with only that things that he could see based on his past behavior. He should be able to access things that are available to anyone not something that is given to him by some one based on his past behavior and choice.
