Bridging the gap between industry and academia: sustainability in LLM-assisted software engineering
The advent of Large Language Models in software engineering brings both academic research and industry to the cutting edge of uncharted territory, breaking the typical division of roles, and inviting a new type of symbiosis between academia and industry.
Drawing on insights from the SILAS workshop, this paper examines sustainability in LLM-assisted software engineering. It identifies key gaps between academic and industrial approaches to methods and metrics, accessibility of systems, and efficiency trade-offs. We outline key considerations for shaping research agendas that emphasize standardized, outcome-oriented frameworks linking reproducibility with real-world sustainability.
