--------------------------------------------------------------
TOPIC: How scratching my own itch led to the best work of my Ph.D., and
other stories
--------------------------------------------------------------


This talk will be held in English.



ABSTRACT:
As I write this, it has been 10 years since I started doing research in
software engineering. In this talk, I relate three episodes of my research
career, and reflect on the lessons I learnt from them. The lessons
include (but are not limited to) the value of solving one¹s own problems,
the richness of unforeseen collaborations with neighboring research areas,
and the mindset necessary to approach problems in a way that made these
episodes possible in the first place. The stories feature suspense, drama,
and empirical software engineering.




BIO:
Romain Robbes is an Assistant Professor at the University of Chile
(Computer Science Department), in the PLEIAD research lab, since
January 2010. He earned his PhD in 2008 from the University of Lugano,
Switzerland and received his Master¹s degree from the University of
Caen, France. His research interests lie in Empirical Software Engineering
and Mining Software Repositories. He authored more than 50
papers on these topics at top software engineering venues (ICSE, FSE, ASE,
EMSE, ECOOP, OOPSLA), received best paper awards at WCRE 2009 and
MSR 2011, and was the recipient of a Microsoft SEIF award 2011. He has
served in the organizing and program committees of many software
engineering conferences (ICSE, MSR, WCRE, ICMSE, IWPSE, ECOOP, and others).
