Bao N. Nguyen

Welcome to my homepage!

I am an Architect at F5 Inc., working on infrastructure and automation for networking products.  Before F5, I worked at Apple , Google and VMware  on various AI/ML, large-scale infrastructure  and automated testing projects. My research interests include AI/ML, robotics, large-scale software automation, software testing, distributed systems and empirical software engineering. Join our journal reading club to discuss recent work on software engineering research.

I obtained my PhD in Computer Science from the University of Maryland, College Park in 2013.  My advisor was  Atif Memon. I was a member of the Software Engineering Group and the Event Driven Software Lab 

I am the core developer of GUITAR, an open-source framework for automated model-based GUI software testing. Check out this list for some bugs detected by our tools.
