Stefan Christov
Stefan Christov is an Associate Professor of Software Engineering at Quinnipiac University. He currently teaches courses on software quality assurance, software engineering in health care, software project management, and a software engineering module in an introductory engineering course.
Stefan Christov's current research interests include improving the quality of human-intensive processes (HIPs), such as medical processes, with a focus on detecting human errors before harm is done and preventing such errors. He has used software engineering techniques to formally express and analyze models of complex HIPs and industrial engineering techniques to elicit and validate models of such processes. He is also interested in human-computer interaction techniques for presenting information to assist process performers during an ongoing process.
Stefan enjoys outdoor activities, such as running, hiking, and skiing. Other hobbies include traveling and salsa dancing.
Answers to "Intro to IRC Activity" questions:
- How do people interact? By entering comments in the IRC channel, using a combination of free text and IRC commands.
- What is the pattern of communication? A meeting chair initiates the meeting and sets a topic. Other meeting participants discuss the topic (e.g., issues they have encountered, proposed solutions).
- Are there any terms that seem to have special meaning? 'IRC meeting chair', 'MeetBot', the IRC commands.
- Can you make any other observations? Occasionally, the meeting chair issues IRC commands to summarize discussion points and log action items.
