This $310,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program supports research to develop interactive dialogue systems that can help software engineers implement non-functional requirements, specifically related to privacy and legal needs. The project at the University of Maine System aims to: (1) conduct experiments on how software engineers interact with dialogue systems to implement non-functional requirements, (2) design models to represent these interactions as dialogue policies, and (3) apply these policies to improve large language models and other AI-based interactive dialogue systems. The goal is to achieve a breakthrough in making AI-based dialogue systems capable of assisting programmers with non-functional requirements. The project will run from October 2025 through September 2028.
