Johann Glock

Johann Glock is a PhD candidate and university assistant (Univ.-Ass.) in the Software Engineering Research Group (SERG) at the University of Klagenfurt, Austria. His research is supervised by Prof. Martin Pinzger. He is affiliated with the Department of Informatics Systems and contributes to the Team ICS Eder. His work focuses on software engineering challenges, including developer understanding of code changes, microservice API evolution, and semantic analysis techniques.

Education: Holds BSc and MSc degrees (exact institutions unspecified). Research interests span semantic differencing, API evolution strategies, software quality metrics, and developer productivity tools. His recent publications investigate symbolic execution-based methods for code comprehension and empirical studies on microservice architecture challenges.

Publications emphasize practical software engineering solutions, with a focus on improving developer workflows and system maintainability. He has contributed to tools like PASDA for semantic code comparison and studies on design patterns' impact on software quality. No scientific awards are explicitly mentioned.

Teaching involvement includes software practicum courses and project supervision. Active in the Interactive Systems Research Team (IAS) and contributes to ongoing projects in software engineering and HCI.
