Dr. Jonathan I. Maletic received the Ph.D. and M.S. in Computer Science
from Wayne State University in 1995 and 1989 respectively. He received
the B.S. in Computer Science from the University of Michigan-Flint in
1985. Previously, Dr. Maletic was a faculty member at the University of
Memphis and a software consultant to Ford Motor Company and the Arizona
Department of Transportation. His research program focuses on the
construction of methods, tools, and environments that assist in the
process of software development and engineering. Topics of
investigation include program understanding, software component
clustering, identification of reusable components, and software
visualization. Information retrieval methods are being utilized to
extract semantic information from source code and associated
documentation. Cognitive models of the software development process are
being investigated to examine the relationship between program design
methodologies in software engineering and cognitive problem solving
paradigms. Software metrics and how they relate to the software
comprehension process are being studied. Virtual reality environments
are being investigated for the visualization of large-scale software
systems.
