Grant: Canada Research Chairs
Queen's University
$200,000.00
Canada Research Chair in Software Evolution
FY 2024-25
Summary
Software applications are omnipresent in our daily lives. We rely on them to pay our bills, to shop, and to stream videos online. Their quality is critical and cannot be compromised by their ever-increasing user base and programming complexity. Dr. Zou¿s research program will develop leading-edge methods and tools in software analytics and apply machine learning techniques to build smart infrastructure that can provide intelligent support for software development and evolution. The proposed research program will lead to a substantial improvement in software engineering practices with respect to the quality and cost-effective development and evolution of reliable software applications.
