Alexandre Bergel

Computer Scientist at RelationalAI. From 2009 until 2022, Professor (Associate) at the University of Chile, member of the Intelligent Software Construction laboratory (ISCLab).

My research interests include software engineering, software performance, software visualization, programming environment, machine learning, and critical embedded systems.

I am interested in improving the way we build and maintain software. My current hypothesises are validated using rigorous empirical methodologies.

For details concerning my research, check out the publications page or check out the common online resources (Google Scholar, DBLP, ACM, SCOPUS, FCFM, UChile).

I am academic coordinator of the Diploma de Postítulo en Inteligencia Artificial. I am an editorial board member of Empirical Software Engineering.

I like to work with people. As soon as your dream is to help the humanity to make better software then we should talk.

I enjoy writing:

I enjoy discussing scientific advances to a large audience (in Spanish):

I am part of the Steering Committee of the IEEE International Working Conference on Software Visualization (VISSOFT) (2015 - 2020) and Tools for Software Evolution (SATToSE) (since 2018).

I am part member of the editorial board of the journal Empirical Software Engineering.
