Software Engineering Interests

Associate professor (with habilitation) at INSA Rennes doing research in the DiverSE research group, in the IRISA/Inria lab (Rennes, France).
Developing software systems is a hard job with the numerous concerns software engineers have to deal with (usability, security, reliability, etc.).
I develop a research activity in the field of software engineering. My research activity aims at making software engineers work simpler.
This goes by inventing techniques and tools at the good level of abstraction so that engineers can work efficiently.
Two recent examples:
We proposed Interacto, a modern user interaction processing model. With Interacto engineers handle user interactions (DnD, drag-lock, double-click, button click, pan, multi-touch, etc.) instead of low-level UI events. Engineers configure how to turn a selected user interaction into a (undoable) UI command using a fluent API. With Interacto, engineers develop a front-end at a correct level of abstraction (user interaction, commands).
We proposed HyperAST, a novel technique for representing several ASTs of a same software (different branches, releases, commits, or clones) in a single place. With HyperAST, engineers can write temporal code analyses on their software systems with adapted abstractions (the HyperAST).
