Dr. Leonard Peter Binamungu (PhD)

Senior System Analyst & Implementer & Researchers

Bio

I am a Lecturer in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, College of Information and Communication Technologies (CoICT), University of Dar es Salaam. Software Engineering and Information Systems are my main areas of research, teaching and consultancy. Specifically, my Software Engineering research covers the following areas: software smells, clone detection, mining software repositories, empirical software engineering, automated software testing (acceptance test-driven approaches), and static and dynamic program analysis. As well, I am keen about research on the design, development, implementation,evaluation, and interoperability of Information Systems, particularly in the context of developing countries. I am always happy to be contacted for a chat by students or researchers working or wanting to work around these areas.

I have a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Manchester, UK (2020) where I was supervised by Suzanne M. Embury and Nikos Konstantinou. Also, I have an MSc in Computer Science from Osmania University, Hyderabad, India (2012), and a BSc in Computer Science from the University of Dar es Salaam (2009). In addition to other software and information systems projects that I have worked on for the past 13+ years, from July 2022, I have been leading the research project on strengthening safety consideration in software engineering practices in Tanzania, the work funded by the Royal Academy of Engineering, UK, through the programme called Engineering X: Engineering skills where they are most required. This work is done in collaboration between the Department of Computer Science and Engineering of the University of Dar es Salaam and the Tanzania Information and Communication Technologies Commision (ICTC) .Read More
