Abstract

This workshop focuses on human aspects of software engineering. The importance of this topic stems from the recognition that the more the software world is developed, the more it is accepted by the software engineering community that the people involved in software development processes deserve further attention, not the processes themselves or technology. In this spirit, this workshop attempts to highlight the world of software engineering from the perspective of the main actors and stakeholders involved in software development processes: the individuals, the team, the customer, the organization, and others. Needless to say, the code and technology are main actors in this process as well; indeed, in the workshop they are addressed and analyzed from the human perspective. Since the OOPSLA community deals with software engi-neering processes, it should not neglect their human aspects. The workshop offers one venue in which the topic can be discussed.
