Welcome to my homepage!
I am a professor in Software Engineering at Simula Research Laboratory, Norway. My research is aimed at the development and empirical evaluation of advanced data-driven techniques and tools that help software engineers create more secure, trustworthy and resilient systems. The focus is on creating actionable, evidence-based, insights for assessing and understanding the risks involved with the evolution and operation of complex software-intensive systems. My research combines several fields, such as software analysis, machine learning and AI, software reverse engineering, software repository mining, program comprehension, and empirical software engineering.

In collaboration with my team, I'm currently addressing the following areas: (1) cybersecurity, in particular, automated assessment and repair of software security vulnerabilities, as well as automated support for cyber threat intelligence; (2) autonomous self-healing systems, where we investigate how bio-inspired approaches can help build more resilient systems; and (3) intelligent analytics, to benefit from the wealth of data that is produced during software development, evolution and operation to support decision-making.
