By embedding AI into each phase - from initial planning and requirements gat hering to coding\, testing\, deployment\, and ongoing maintenance - we can unlock significant improvements in productivity\, software quality\, deve lopment speed\, and cost-effectiveness. It’s about fundamentally transfo rming the craft of software development.\n\n## Topics for submission\nWe a re looking for compelling talks and live demonstrations (*approximately 25 -35 minutes\, including Q&A*) that showcase practical applications\, real- world use cases\, and challenges in integrating open-source AI into the SD LC. Submissions should ideally focus on:\n\n1. **Leveraging open source NL P for AI-assisted requirements analysis and user story generation:** Share your experiences with tools like llama\, mistral\, spaCy\, NLTK\, or Hugg ing Face models for analyzing user feedback\, deriving requirements\, or a iding product teams in creating structured user stories.\n2. **Practical a pplications of open source code generation and refactoring tools:** Presen t demos and insights on using open-source LLMs and AI tools for code compl etion\, suggesting refactoring patterns\, identifying code smells\, or aut omating code generation.\n3. **Enhancing test automation and strategy with Open Source AI tools:** Discuss how AI (using open-source libraries) can improve test case generation\, manage test data\, predict defects\, or opt imize test execution strategies.\n4. **Implementing Open Source AIOps for intelligent monitoring and incident response:** Showcase the use of open-s ource AI/ML platforms (e.g.\, Prometheus\, Grafana\, ELK Stack with AI plu gins) for anomaly detection\, root cause analysis\, and automating operati onal tasks.\n5. **Role of Open Source AI in securing the SDLC:** Explore h ow open-source AI tools can assist in static/dynamic code analysis\, ident ify security vulnerabilities\, and improve DevSecOps practices.\n6. **AI e thics and bias mitigation in open-source SDLC:** Discuss tools like Fairle arn or AIF360 for detecting biases in code and requirements\, emphasizing responsible AI practices.\n7. **Agentic AI for collaborative development:* * Explore multi-agent systems (e.g.\, using AutoGen) for automated workflo ws across teams.\n8. **Sustainable AI practices in SDLC:** Focus on optimi zing open-source models for lower carbon footprints\, aligning with India' s green tech initiatives.\n\n## Workshop topics and master classes\nWe inv ite proposals for interactive workshops and in-depth masterclasses (*typic ally 2-4 hours*) that provide attendees with practical skills and foundati onal knowledge. These sessions can explore topics within the SDLC theme or extend to broader enabling technologies in the open-source AI ecosystem.\ n1. **Hands-on: building a simple AI Assistant for developer productivity* * (using Open Source Libraries): A practical workshop using open-source\, GenAI/ NLP/ML libraries (e.g.\, spaCy\, scikit-learn\, Hugging Face transf ormers) to build a tool automating a specific development task (e.g.\, doc umentation summarization\, issue classification).\n2. **Prompt engineering for developers and QAs:** getting the most from AI Assistants: A skill-bu ilding session on writing effective prompts for AI coding assistants\, tes t case generators\, and documentation tools.\n3. **Building your first ope n source chatbot with:** A hands-on workshop on building a conversational AI agent\, demonstrating principles of AI-powered digital product creation .\n4. **Understanding and contributing to Open Source LLMs:** A deep dive into the architecture and potential of open-source Large Language Models a nd how developers can contribute or fine-tune them for SDLC tasks.\n\n---\ n## Guidelines for speaking\n1. **Here’s a [guide to draft presentations ](https://images.hasgeek.com/embed/file/29d3f93818c74c9885eb223986516c5e). **\n2.
