Graduate students of Timothy C. Lethbridge

The following are my current and former graduate students and their theses. They are in reverse chronological order by date of defense.

If you are interested in becoming a graduate student of mine, please click here to read about the kind of students I am seeking

I can supervise students studying in the following programs: 1) OCICS (Computer Science), 2) OCIECE (Software engineering aspects of computer engineering), 3) System Science.

Current graduate students

• Aliaa Alghamdi (Masters of Systems Science in progress): Extensions to Umple for Interconnected State Machines

• Mahmoud Orabi (PhD in progress): Extending Umple for Automotive Applications: Active objects and Code Generation for AUTOSAR and C++

• Ahmed Orabi (PhD in progress): Usability Analysis by Mental State Detection combining Inexpensive Eye Tracking, Brainwave Analysis, Voice Analysis

• Sultan Eid (Masters expected 2012): Generation of C++ From the Umple Model-Oriented Programming Technology

• Hamoud Aljamaan (PhD expected 2013 or 2014): Model-Oriented Tracing: Specifying trace cases and tracing for UML associations and state machines

• Miguel Garzon (PhD expected 2014 or 2015): Umplification: Incremental reverse engineering from source code to model-oriented programs in Umple

• Edna Braun (PhD expected 2012): Reverse engineering behavioral models by filtering out utilities from execution traces. Co-supervised with Daniel Amyot - expected

If you are a current or accepted graduate student, you will have a page on Dr. Lethbridge's Cruise group private wiki for developing your thesis objectives. Please request your account and page if you do not have one yet. You should also have an account for managing thesis and paper versions on Dr. Lethbridge's private svn server.
