Focus on Digital Traces Leads to Endowed Position for UT’s Mockus
Audris Mockus, whose research focuses on analyzing programming steps leading to problems in computer software—known as digital archaeology—has been named the new Harlan Mills Chair of Software Engineering at UT.
The position began with a $1 million endowment from telecommunications giant Ericsson in 1998, made in the hopes of furthering research into software engineering.
