Laws, regulations, and organizational\u0026nbsp;policies codify societal values that software engineers must build into\u0026nbsp;regulated systems. Methods, tools, and techniques for evaluating,\u003Cbr \/\u003Eestablishing, or demonstrating regulatory compliance in software systems are\u0026nbsp;critical for this effort. This relatively young area of research is known as\u0026nbsp;Regulatory Compliance Software Engineering (RCSE).\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis presentation examines RCSE research in two domains. The first domain\u0026nbsp;applies traditional requirements engineering techniques to evaluate software\u0026nbsp;requirements for compliance with electronic health records systems. I will\u0026nbsp;begin by providing an overview of both a method for evaluating software\u0026nbsp;requirements for compliance. Next, I will present our case studies examining\u0026nbsp;how people actually make legal implementation readiness decisions for software\u0026nbsp;requirements. The results of this work indicate that software engineers are\u0026nbsp;ill-equipped to reason about regulatory compliance.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe second domain examines natural language processing as a part of the\u0026nbsp;regulatory compliance process for privacy policies. I will begin with a study\u0026nbsp;identifying software requirements in a set of over 2,000 privacy policies\u0026nbsp;using topic modeling. This work may prove useful for both regulators and\u0026nbsp;software engineers. Next, I will present our work examining how people\u0026nbsp;identify and classify ambiguity in legal texts. The results of this work\u0026nbsp;demonstrate the promise of natural language processing approaches to\u0026nbsp;regulatory compliance software engineering.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAaron Massey is a Postdoctoral Fellow at Georgia Tech\u0027s School of\u0026nbsp;Interactive Computing, a research scientist at the Georgia Tech Research\u0026nbsp;Institute, and the Associate Director of the Academic Privacy Research Center (ThePrivacyPlace.org).
