Welcome to my homepage!
I am a PhD candidate at the department of Applied Informatics, University of Macedonia, Thessaloniki, Greece.
My research interests include Refactoring, identification of design problems (code smells), Design Patterns and object-oriented quality metrics. I am a student member of the IEEE and IEEE Computer Society.

[15/12/2008] :
Our paper titled "Identification of Move Method Refactoring Opportunities" has been accepted for publication in IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering.
This paper presents a methodology for the identification of Feature Envy bad smells which can be resolved by Move Method refactorings. The proposed methodology has been implemented in JDeodorant Eclipse plug-in and has been evaluated on several open-source projects.
You can download a preprint of the paper from the Publications section.
[08/12/2008] :
Our paper titled "Identification of Extract Method Refactoring Opportunities" has been accepted at 13th European Conference on Software Maintenance and Reengineering (CSMR'09).
This paper presents a methodology for the decomposition of large and complex methods by extracting the computation of variables into new methods. The suggested slice extraction refactorings contain the complete computation of a given variable, are behavior-preserving and result in code that is not excessively duplicated in the original and extracted method.
You can download the camera-ready version of the paper from the Publications section.
