Software Engineering
Software Engineering is an engineering discipline concerned with systematic approaches to the analysis, design, assessment, implementation, testing, maintenance, and reengineering of software. Our faculty does work on software performance, scientific software, software architecture, software evolution, software testing and analysis, software visualization, web engineering.
Gabriele Bavota
Prof. Bavota's research interests lie in the area of software maintenance and evolution. His current research is focused on the development of recommender systems supporting software developers, the mining of software repositories, and empirical software engineering. He heads the SEART research group.
Walter Binder
Prof. Binder founded the Dynamic Analysis Group. His research interests include dynamic program analysis, concurrent and parallel programming, aspect-oriented programming, virtual machines, service-oriented computing, and cloud computing.
Antonio Carzaniga
Prof. Carzaniga interests lie in the general areas of distributed computing, computer networks and advanced communication services, and software engineering.
Carlo A. Furia
Prof. Furia's research interests center around developing rigorous techniques and tools to analyze and improve the quality, correctness, and reliability of software and systems, with a focus on practical and realistically applicable results.
Matthias Hauswirth
Prof. Hauswirth's interests lie in the area between programming languages, runtime systems, and software engineering, with a focus on the efficiency of software, its users, and its developers. Prof. Hauswirth leads the Lugano Computing Education Research Lab (LuCE).
Michele Lanza
Prof. Lanza leads the REVEAL (Reverse Engineering, Visualization, Evolution Analysis Lab) research group and carries out research in diverse aspects of how to ease the comprehension and evolution of large and complex software systems. Current research is focused on software visualization, mining software repositories, collaborative development, and novel integrated development environments.
Cesare Pautasso
Prof. Pautasso's research lies at the intersection of service-oriented computing, autonomic computing, software architecture, Web engineering and business process modeling and management. He's leading the Architecture, Design and Web Information Systems Engineering group.
Mauro Pezzè
Prof. Pezzè's research interests focus on the definition of techniques for the design and development of high-quality software systems. Prof. Pezzè leads STAR, the Software Testing and Analysis Research group.
Paolo Tonella
Prof. Tonella's research interests include deep learning testing, web testing, search based test case generation, and the test oracle problem.
