Overview of the group

Welcome at the web pages of the Parallel and Distributed Systems research group (Arbeitsgruppe Parallele und Verteilte Systeme - PVS) at Institute of Computer Science of Heidelberg University. Our research targets complex and distributed software, in particular data analysis systems. We primarily focus on the following domains:

Artificial Intelligence for Programming

• Code recommendations via deep learning
• Program synthesis for data analysis
• Code-to-code translation via learning approaches.

Efficient data processing and analysis

• Domain Specific Languages and low-code approaches for data science
• Algorithms and tools for scalable data wrangling/data processing
• Cloud-based resource provisioning.

Software reliability

• Testing of large-scale software, in particular of data analysis systems
• Detection and isolation of latent and security-critical software defects (esp. software aging)
• Diagnosis of configuration errors in complex software systems
• Performance optimization of data-centric applications.

In our research we combine techniques from AI/machine learning, software engineering, and computer systems research.
