Martin Toldam Torp PhD defense of "Techniques and Tools for Supporting Maintenance of Node.js Programs"

Title: Techniques and Tools for Supporting Maintenance of Node.js Programs

During his PhD studies, Martin Toldam Torp has researched many of the challenges facing software developers that use the highly popular Node.js development platform. Node.js programs need ongoing maintenance to reduce security risks, fix bugs, and meet new customer requirements. Martin’s research has contributed with new program analysis tools that help automate parts of these maintenance tasks. The tools reduce the maintenance workload of programmers, and thereby help ensure that maintenance tasks are completed faster.

The PhD study was completed at the Department of Computer Science, Faculty of Natural Sciences, Aarhus University.
