Focus
- My research interests include the human understanding and evolvability of software-intensive systems. The challenge is to reduce their ever-growing complexity and size to the essence.
- Example research question: How can automated tools help people to understand and adapt existing software? For example, by providing global overviews or by simplifying the code.
- Example research question: How can people reliably specify automatically generated software? For example, using modeling languages, higher-level programming languages, code generation, code transformation, controller synthesis, or explainable artificial intelligence.
- Research with industry-as-a-lab. This is an applied research approach in close collaboration with industrial partners.
- Applied and fundamental research in multiple topics. These include code analysis and transformation, concurrency, domain-specific languages, formal methods, model-based engineering, modelling, programming methodology, software technology, and system engineering.
- Pioneer of TNO's research line on software legacy. This work includes the development of methods and tools based on real case studies with the industry. The results are available in publications, learning tracks, and commercial services.
- Software development in several programming languages. Languages include Ada, C++, C#, Delphi, Java, and Python.
- Facilitation of internal and external workshops.
- Teaching in training and further education in several areas. Topics include compilers, domain-specific languages, information systems, legacy software, logic, model-based engineering, parallelism, problem solving, and programming.
