Fábio Ferreira

I received a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the Federal University of Minas Gerais (DCC-UFMG) in 2023, where I was part of the ASERG research group under the supervision of Professor Marco Tulio Valente. Currently, I am an assistant professor at the Federal Institute of the Southeast of Minas Gerais (IF Sudeste MG - Campus Barbacena), and my research interests encompass mining software repositories, empirical software engineering, software maintenance and evolution, software quality, and business process management.


Previously, I completed my master's degree in Computer Science at the Federal University of Pernambuco (CIn - UFPE) in 2016. During my master's program, I collaborated on a project between CIn - UFPE and the Pernambuco Court of Accounts (TCE-PE), focusing on automating and improving the Court's business processes.


My educational background includes an undergraduate degree in Information Systems (2008) and a Technical Course in Informatics (2004) from the Federal Institute of the Southeast of Minas Gerais (IF Sudeste MG - Campus Barbacena).
