معرفی
Ragnhild Kobro Runde is an Associate Professor in Computing Education at the Department of Informatics, University of Oslo. Her work focuses on software engineering methodologies, formal methods in system design, and computing education at both secondary and undergraduate levels. She is affiliated with the Computing Education research group.
Her research explores topics such as UML sequence diagram semantics, formal specification techniques (Event-B/STAIRS), and the transition from block-based programming (Scratch) to text-based languages (Python) in schools. She also investigates how ICT exposure impacts mathematics self-belief and academic performance in PISA assessments.
Runde has contributed to over 30 peer-reviewed publications since 2005, appearing in journals like Formal Aspects of Computing and Software and Systems Modeling. Her work frequently addresses challenges in software design, security risk analysis, and service-oriented architecture modeling using UML extensions.
Key contributions include developing pattern languages for web application security risk analysis, analyzing nondeterminism in sequence diagrams, and creating methodologies for dynamic service composition using UML 2.x. She has collaborated with international researchers on computing education initiatives and formal methods applications.
