Jun-Wei Lin, PhD Student, Software Engineering, UCI
I am a PhD student working with Prof. Sam Malek in the School of Information and Computer Sciences, UC Irvine. My research interest is software testing, especially in test automation, test case comprehension and adopting visualization, machine learning and other techniques to facilitate testing process. From May 2014 to May 2015, I worked as a research intern at National Agricultural Library, USDA, participating in i5k Workspace@NAL project and helping deal with the computational challenges. Prior to doing doctoral studies, I worked as a qualified civil servant and responsible for IT acquisition, system administration and web application development. Before employed, I spent six years in National Tsing Hua University, where I received my M.S. in CS (working with Prof. Chin-Yu Huang) and B.S. in CS in 2008 and 2006 respectively. I was awarded Government Fellowship for Studying Abroad 2014 (the only recipient in EECS) provided by the Ministry of Education, Taiwan.
