Biography
My main research interest is in software design reasoning for better decisions. Much research efforts in software development focus on the software artefacts instead of the people who create them. We lack understanding on how design decisions are made and how people's thinking influence design outcomes. A set of requirements given to different designers would likely result in different outcomes, with some designs better than others. Why is there a difference and how can we improve design and development quality? We question if all design decisions are good enough. A deeper understanding of the process of design decisions can provide insights into improving decision making. My research aim to help software architects and designers to better design, evaluate, trace and maintain complex systems.
