AI总结:

本文以巴布亚新几内亚为案例,通过研讨会、问卷和焦点小组等定性方法,识别该国软件工程社区在融入全球软件产业过程中面临的障碍与机遇,并提出促进本地与全球从业者、研究人员和教育工作者包容性参与的建议。

摘要:

软件在现代社会中扮演着核心角色,具有高经济价值并具备推动社会变革的潜力。本文刻画了一个正在迈向全球软件产业的国家所面临的挑战与机遇,重点关注巴布亚新几内亚(PNG)。通过举办一次软件工程研讨会,我们开展了一项定性研究,具体方式包括录制演讲(n=3)、发放问卷(n=52)以及与当地参与者进行深度焦点小组讨论(n=5)。基于主题分析,我们识别出PNG软件工程社区面临的挑战,并将其区分为障碍与机遇。我们还讨论了实践现状,以及如何使其对来自本地和全球软件工程社区的从业者、研究人员和教育工作者具有包容性。

英文摘要:

Software plays a central role in modern societies, with its high economic value and potential for advancing societal change. In this paper, we characterise challenges and opportunities for a country progressing towards entering the global software industry, focusing on Papua New Guinea (PNG). By hosting a Software Engineering workshop, we conducted a qualitative study by recording talks (n=3), employing a questionnaire (n=52), and administering an in-depth focus group session with local actors (n=5). Based on a thematic analysis, we identified challenges as barriers and opportunities for the PNG software engineering community. We also discuss the state of practices and how to make it inclusive for practitioners, researchers, and educators from both the local and global software engineering community.
