- Department: Software Engineering
- Leadership Roles: Section Manager, Research Group Leader
Tell's research centers on industry-academia collaborations with specific foci on software processes and process improvement, teamwork dynamics, computer-supported cooperative work, and globally distributed software engineering. His work bridges theoretical frameworks with practical industry applications, particularly examining how teams function in distributed and hybrid work environments. Recent research has expanded into psychological safety in agile teams and the impact of environmental factors on programming performance.
Analysis of his publication trends shows increasing focus on human factors in software engineering, with recent work examining hybrid work arrangements, psychological safety, and environmental impacts on programming. His 2023 publications particularly emphasize practical applications of software engineering concepts in real-world settings, including teaching methodologies using live systems and workplace dynamics in contemporary software teams.
Tell has been actively involved in research administration and community building through conference leadership roles, having served as General Chair for the ACM/IEEE 15th International Conference on Global Software Engineering (2020) and Program co-chair for the 14th edition (2019). He also chaired the 3rd HELENA Workshop (2018) and organized the 21st International Conference on Agile Software Development (2020).
His research has been supported by significant grants including the Innovation Fund Denmark projects "Intelligent project management powered by proprietary machine learning technology" (2018, as PI) and "NexGSD: Next Generation Technology for Global Software Development" (2011-2016, as CoI). These projects focused on practical applications of software engineering research with industry relevance.
Tell leads the Software Engineering Research Group at IT University of Copenhagen, fostering collaboration between academia and industry. His leadership extends to faculty recruitment processes, as evidenced by his 2023 role as chair of the assessment committee for an associate professor position in Software Engineering Tools and Methods.
