A contribution-only mini-conference for CTOs, lead architects, and tech founders building real Software Factories in production — real practice, no pitches. Submit a case study via the call for contributions.
Programme
ArchitecH: A Harness Agnostic Software Factory
Burak Cemil Özafşar · Mutagent
A deep dive into the framework for SDLC automation — a harness-agnostic software factory built to run the whole delivery loop.
The "Leafcutter" Approach: Scaling Decentralized Agentic Systems in Human Organizations
Jan-Henrik Hempel · Schafe vorm Fenster UG
A bio-inspired framework — the leafcutter-ant colony as a single decentralized organism — for deploying and scaling agentic AI systems inside human organizations: the foundational DNA of rules, division of labor, and the organizational requirements to establish, maintain and scale.
The Automation of Automation? Generative AI and the Reconfiguration of Programming Labor
Ann Katzinski · WZB / Weizenbaum-Institut
An empirical study — interviews, case studies and netnographic data with developers worldwide — on how generative AI reconfigures programming work. Tools like Copilot and Cursor automate routine coding but do not replace human labor; they shift it toward tool selection, prompt engineering and quality assurance. The talk challenges full-substitution narratives and reframes it as automated automation: a layered reconfiguration of high-skill digital labor.
A well-calibrated LLM-Judge: A basis for continuous improvement
Anupam Krishnamurthy · TestSolutions GmbH
A concrete method for aligning an LLM judge with human evaluators — curated ground-truth questions, alignment metrics, and a frozen immutable benchmark for drift tracking and model comparison — with a live RAG-chatbot demo.
