Professional biography

I am a Professor in Computer Science in the School of Computing & Communications at The Open University, UK and a member of the Software Engineering & Design research group.  Prior to this position I was a Professor at the School of Science and Technology, City University London

I am a strong advocate of a multidisciplinary approach to software engineering to understand, enable, and engineer societal complex systems. I am involved in imultidisciplinary research projects that combine technology with other domains such as food security, circular economy, healthcare, and sociology.

I have been research active in the areas of software and service engineering where I have published extensively. Broadly, my research interests include service-oriented computing; secure software engineering; composition and adaptation of software systems; cloud computing; validation of software systems; and traceability of software artefacts. More recently, my research has focused on the digitalisation of the food supply chain, including the challenges of traceability, ethics and adaptation in the domain of food security; and the operationalisation of human values in software systems and supply chains.

I hold a Parnas Fellowship from the Irish Software Research Centre (Lero).

I have served in several academic leadership positions, including member of the EPSRC ICT Strategy Advisory Team (since January 2022); EPSRC EDI Strategy Advisrory Group; programme chair of major international software engineering conferences (ASE’05, FASE’12, ESEC/FSE’17, ICSE/NIER’18, RE’20, ICSE/Workshops’21, ICSE’22 Area Chair); member of the editorial boards of various journals (IEEE TSE, Springer JSS, and Science of Computing Programming Journal, Transactions on Service Computing); vice-chair of the IFIP Working Group 2.9; and member of steering and programme committees of the main conferences in software engineering. 

I have been principal and co-investigator in European, EPSRC, and industry funded research projects, including the most recent EPSRC Internet of Food Things DE Network+ project, the UK Manufacturing Symbiosis DE Network+ project, and the SAUSE: Secure, Adaptive, Usable Software Engineering Platform Grant project.

I hold a PhD degree in Computer Science from Imperial College of Science Technology and Medicine, UK; and MSc and BSc degrees in Computer Science from Brazil. I was a research fellow at University College London, UK and I have worked as a software system consultant, developer and analyst in several organisations. I have also been a visiting researcher at AT&T Labs Research, USA.

Research interests

My research interests lie in the areas of software and service engineering to enable a society-focused software research strategy. My interests consider values, ethical and adaptation challenges in software systems, in food supply chains, and in digital manufacturing circular economy. My areas of research include:

  • adaptation of software systems; 
  • service discovery, service adaptation, service composition, service verification, service reputation and trust; 
  • consistency management and traceability of software artefacts; 
  • conflict management in systems of systems; 
  • design and verification of secure software systems;

EPSRC Manufacturing Investigator NetworkPlus Grant
RoleStart dateEnd dateFunding source
Lead01 Nov 201931 Mar 2023EPSRC Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council

The manufacturing industry in the UK is facing growing productivity challenges due to supply and price volatility of raw materials. Manufacturing firms are consequently embracing the opportunities of circular economy approaches as a means to save costs, prevent disruptions in materials input and generate additional revenue from waste streams. The development of circular economy capability and competence requires an industrial symbiosis approach. Industrial symbiosis is a fundamental building block of the circular economy. It provides a means to build industrial competitiveness through the creation of manufacturing ecosystems involving networks of organisations that generate new economic value through the continuous exchange of resources (materials and energy). The industrial symbiosis capability of the UK manufacturing industry as a whole remains underexploited, with most of the circular economy initiatives being developed in sectoral silos. Such fragmented condition holds the economy back from achieving better sustainability performance overall. To unlock the untapped circular economy potential of the manufacturing industry in the UK, a cross-sectoral industrial symbiosis approach is necessary. Such approach entails a systemic expansion of manufacturing synergies involving the exchange of resources across diverse sectors. A major challenge to implement a cross- sectoral bridging approach is the lack of supporting channels, tools and business models that enable industrial symbiosis initiatives across manufacturing sectors. The UK Manufacturing Symbiosis NetworkPlus (UKMSN+) will promote, support, facilitate and stimulate the creation of a UK-wide community of academics, practitioners, government and civil representatives who will address the challenges above mentioned with basis on the central question of ‘how the industrial symbiosis capability of the UK manufacturing industry as a whole can be galvanised within sectors and fertilised across sectors?’

Drone Identity

Co-investigator01 Jul 201930 Jun 2020EC (European Commission): FP (inc. Horizon Europe, H2020, ERC)

This EngageKTN project is investigating forensic-readiness requirements of unmanned aerial systems, to help identify causes of safety and security related air traffic incidents. Unmanned aerial vehicles (or drones) are increasingly creating challenges for managing the safety of aircraft that share the airspace with them. The collection and use of forensic data associated with drones and surrounding physical contexts is key to effective incident investigations. The research is focusing on the architecture and concept of operations for European unmanned traffic management, and the ability to preserve such vital information as evidence for forensic investigations. The team of the project include Dr. Yijun Yu (PI), Mr. Danny Barthaud (Research Software Engineer), and Prof. Bashar Nuseibeh, Prof. Blaine Price, Prof. Andrea Zisman, Prof. Arosha Bandara at The Open University, and Dr. Anthony P. Rushton, Dr. David L. Bush, and Dr. George S. Koudis at NATS. The project URL is at https://droneidentity.eu.

DE Network +: The Internet of Food Things
RoleStart dateEnd dateFunding source
Lead01 Jun 201830 Apr 2022EPSRC Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council

An efficient and productive food chain that provides readily available, high quality and safe foods at reasonable cost is needed by all in society. As a consequence, food & drink is the largest manufacturing sector in the UK, contributing over £26.9bn to the UK economy and employing 420,000 people. It supports a food chain which generates GVA of £108bn, with 3.9m employees in a truly international industry, with £20bn of exports in 2016. From 2006-’15 the UK food chain increased GVA by 30%, exports by 72%, branded food exports by 100% and food chain employment grew by 5% (DEFRA 2016, FDF 2017). Underpinning this scale and successful growth are innovations in: digital technology, food automation & robotics, process engineering, food science, consumer choice behaviour, food safety. The UK is recognised as a World leader in food safety, provenance and traceability. However, the environmental and societal impacts of the food chain are still significant for example; Obesity alone costs the UK £47 billion per annum; the food chain uses 17% of UK energy consumption; post farm-gate food chain is responsible for 15million tonnes of food waste and more than 20 MtCO2e of GHG emissions (Wrap, 2013); there are still c.500,000 cases of food poisoning per year (FSA, 2016; regular food “scares” undermine consumer confidence and cause alarm, i.e. “Dutch Egg Scandal, 2017”; “Hepatitis E sales of pork, 2017”; “Horsemeat, 2013”

SAUSE: Secure, Adaptive, Usable Software Engineering

Co-investigator01 Apr 201831 Mar 2024EPSRC Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council

In the last decade, the role of software engineering has changed rapidly and radically. Globalisation and mobility of people and services, pervasive computing, and ubiquitous connectivity through the Internet have disrupted traditional software engineering boundaries and practices. People and services are no longer bound by physical locations. Computational devices are no longer bound to the devices that host them. Communication, in its broadest sense, is no longer bounded in time or place. The Software Engineering & Design (SEAD) group at the Open University (OU) is leading software engineering research in this new reality that requires a paradigm shift in the way software is developed and used. This platform grant will grow and sustain strategic, multi-disciplinary, crosscutting research activities that underpin the advances in software engineering required to build the pervasive and ubiquitous computing systems that will be tightly woven into the fabric of a complex and changing socio-technical world. In addition to sustaining and growing the SEAD group at the OU and supporting its continued collaboration with the Social Psychology research group at the University of Exeter, the SAUSE platform will also enable the group to have lasting impact across several application domains such as healthcare, aviation, policing, and sustainability. The grant will allow the team to enhance the existing partner networks in these areas and to develop impact pathways for their research, going beyond the scope and lifetime of individual research projects.
