Hammad Khalid’s work on studying user reviews about mobile apps has just won the ACM Student Research Competition at the International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE).
Hammad’s award-winning research was done while he was a summer SWEP/ULSS undergraduate research student at the Queen’s School of Computing SAIL lab last summer. Hammad continues this work as a Master’s student under the supervision of Dr. Ahmed Hassan, Director of SAIL.
Hammad has to pass though one more round of competition that goes across all of ACM fields, not just SE, before he competes at the grand final. The grand final will be held at the annual ACM Awards Banquet.
