     Many software projects suffer from low customer acceptance levels, late change requests and development cost overruns. A main cause of these problems is a lack of shared understanding among stakeholders. Traditional requirements specification languages and methods face difficulties to create and maintain shared understanding. For example by representing requirements in several different models and transferring information from one model to another information is lost. Each transformation introduces errors and stakeholders are not capable of correcting those mistakes, because the models are not easy to understand. Projects without shared understanding between stakeholders are bound to fail. We propose a semiformal behavior-driven specification language that is derived from methods developed by practitioners over the last 10 years. Behavior-driven specification uses ubiquitous language to describe system behavior as acceptance criteria from a user perspective. These semiformal models are easy to understand for stakeholders and form a basis for communication across domains, thereby enabling shared understanding. We apply the behavior-driven specification language in an industrial case study with a small development team on a mobile application development project. In a survey we show that lack of shared understanding is a root cause of problems in the development team and in an experimental setup we show that behavior-driven specification establishes shared understanding of requirements. Moreover in another survey we observe the explanatory value of shared understanding as well as better acceptance and better team performance as outcomes of shared understanding in a real world project.

    A manual-procedural activities (MPA) involves following the steps of a given workflow for manipulating the physical world. Examples include manual assembly, repair and maintenance, different crafts, cooking, etc. To learn an MPA the trainee needs to master both the steps of the procedure and the hand skills required for manipulating physical objects and the using the tools. TUMA: An Intelligent Tutoring System for Manual-Procedural Activities supports trainees in learning an MPA.

    Abstract This thesis is exploring the creation of a domain-specific language (DSLs) for describing interfaces of web services. We investigate the possibility of a Swift language based definition language that allows Swift developers defining their web service interfaces by using Swift syntax and concepts independent of the concrete communication protocol. Therefore we compare different communication approaches and investigate their similarities and differences. As additional goal we want to explore possibilities that allow developers the usage of ORM functionalities (e.g. database connection and access, model definition, relations) of traditional Swift powered frameworks.

    Abstract This thesis aims to focus on incorporating event based actions into a mainly static Domain Specific Language (DSL). When looking at a concrete DSL that facilitates the implementa- tion of RESTful APIs event based behaviour could include two-way communication and the ability to notify clients about changes from the server. The goal is to extend the work on Corvus, a declarative framework for server side Swift. By adding the functionality for WebSockets and push notifications event based aspects can be implemented to facilitate RESTful APIs. You can find the open source implementation at https://github.com/Apodini/CorvusWS and https://github.com/Apodini/corvus-notifications.

    Abstract The goal of this thesis is to develop a tool that simplifies the client-side developing workflow when using a gRPC based networking stack. We propose encapsulating networking logic in a separate Swift package and extending it for the use with commonly used frameworks such as Combine. We plan to build this abstraction layer above the SwiftNIO based grpc-swift framework. We plan to combine this abstraction layer with a CI-based code generation workflow to simplify the development process when syncing client and server codebases.

    Abstract The thesis investigates the improvement of current deployment strategies. We propose a mechanism that learns the behavior of the system within a Kubernetes Cluster by monitoring the system as well as user requests. We propose an intelligent deployment mechanism that can predict the best possible deployment strategy to optimize resource usage. We plan to visualize the relationships within the services of the cluster and the predictions made by the tool.

    Abstract We want to propose an approach for semi-automated management of system decomposition utilizing static and dynamic code analysis. Semi-automated management of system decomposition describes the process of decomposing a software system into a fine grained service oriented architecture through a suite of tools that are managed by a software architect. Our decomposition management software supports this transition by continously analyzing the current state of the decomposition process with an extendable tool suite. With the help of user input, the business capabilities of the system under study are determined and associated with source code to create firm module boundaries. For this our software utilises static and dynamic code analysis. In this thesis we focus on the decomposition of monolithic software systems based on server-side swift, but the approach can be used for other languages and system architectures as well. You can find the open source implementation at https://github.com/Apodini/Bubo.

    Abstract WebAssembly is a new abstract instruction set primarily designed to target web browsers from higher level programming languages. To enable full stack web development in Swift, the Swift compiler should support targeting WebAssembly. This thesis will try to extend the Swift compiler to support WebAssembly and to compile the Swift Standard Library. Furthermore, the interaction with a web browser’s JavaScript API and the Document Object Model should be possible from Swift. Finally, the results will be evaluated by building a web application in Swift, including the client side code that runs in the browser.
