David Notkin: Research


Projects: past, present, and future

My research interests are in software engineering, with a particular focus in software evolution understanding why software is so hard and expensive to change, and in turn reducing those difficulties and costs.  I'm a strong advocate of empirically-oriented research, which concerns how people do develop and maintain software, as well as how they should develop and maintain software.   My nature is to be more focused on practice; I'm not shy of theory, however, when it's needed and useful.  I've worked in other research areas as well, including parallel and distributed computing, software verification and testing, etc.
