Dongmei Gao

Dongmei Gao is a Doctoral Researcher in the Department of Computer Science at Aalto University, working under Professor Fabian Fagerholm's supervision. Her research sits at the intersection of software engineering and human-computer interaction, with a specialized focus on low-code development platforms and end-user development methodologies.

Her core research interests include:

• Software Engineering
• Human-Computer Interaction
• End-User Development
• Low-Code Development Platforms
• Developer Experience Measurement

Gao's recent publications analyze episodic experiences of developers using low-code platforms through empirical studies, examining how these tools impact workflow efficiency and user satisfaction for non-professional developers. This work contributes to optimizing platform design for diverse user skill levels.

As a doctoral researcher, she is advised by Professor Fabian Fagerholm and does not currently supervise students or hold independent research grants.

She actively participates in Professor Fagerholm's research group at Aalto University, contributing to ongoing projects in human-centered software engineering.
