I am a PhD Candidate in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Maryland, College Park. I am a member of the Experimental Software Engineering Group (ESEG) at Maryland. My advisor is Victor R. Basili.
My research area is software engineering, with particular emphasis on the empirical approach. I am interested in accumulating and sharing knowledge that can help people learn how to create a better program with less effort. The specific research topics include:
* Defect (bug) patterns in High Performance Computing (Visit HPCBugBase!)
* Education in software engineering
* Software architecture evaluation
