Bio Sketch:
==========

Laura Moreno is a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Texas at
Dallas, advised by Dr. Andrian Marcus.  Her research interest is in
Software Engineering, with particular emphasis on Program
Comprehension and Software Maintenance and Evolution.  The core of her
research is empirical in nature and focuses on the development of
tools, methodologies and practices that help software developers
better understand and change large-scale software.  Her dissertation
work, “Software Documentation through Summarization of Source Code
Artifacts”, leverages information contained in various software
artifacts and utilizes techniques from diverse fields, such as,
natural language processing, data mining, software analysis, and
information retrieval.  Papers resulting from her research have been
published in top software engineering venues, including the IEEE/ACM
International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE), the
ACM/SIGSOFT Symposium on the Foundations of Software Engineering
(FSE), the IEEE/ACM International Conference on Automated Software
Engineering (ASE), and the IEEE International Conference on Software
Maintenance and Evolution (ICSME). She has served as organizing
committee member and program committee member for several conferences
in the field.
