Education
Experience
I am currently an assistant professor in the College of Computer, National University of Defense Technology (NUDT), China. I joined the Trustie Lab at August 2013, advised by Prof. Huaimin Wang. I received my Ph.D. in Software Engineering from NUDT in September 2019. From October 2016 to October 2017, I was a visiting student at the University of California, Davis (UC Davis), USA sponsored by the China Scholarship Council. I currently lead the RESET research group (in short for Research on Ecological / Emerging / Efficient / Evolutionary Software Engineering Technologies). Our work investigates the foundations, methods, and tooling that shape modern software development and operations, emphasizing intelligent automation, socio-technical ecosystem understanding, empirical analysis, and next-generation engineering practices.
I like movie, music, and photography.
