Andrea Mocci

Andrea Mocci is a Lecturer at the Faculty of Informatics of the Università della Svizzera italiana (USI). His work focuses on software engineering methodologies, developer productivity, and IDE interaction analysis. He is affiliated with the Software Institute and actively contributes to academic events such as the IEEE International Workshop on Mining and Analyzing Interaction Histories (MAINT). His research explores empirical software engineering techniques, including developer behavior analysis, code documentation improvement, and the application of natural language processing to software artifacts.

Key areas of investigation include:

• IDE interaction and navigation efficiency
• Code redundancy and quality metrics
• Video tutorial analysis for educational content
• Runtime systems and annotation APIs
• Defect prediction and software maintenance

Publications from 2016-2020 highlight trends in developer-centric tools, holistic recommender systems, and visualization techniques for software evolution. His work often bridges theoretical formal methods with practical developer workflows, aiming to improve both software quality and developer productivity through empirical studies and tool development.
