Prof. Dr. Rodrigo Spínola

Prof. Rodrigo Spínola is a Professor of Computer Science at Salvador University where he leads the Technical Debt Research Team (www.tdresearchteam.com). He holds PhD and MS degrees from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. From 2011 to 2012, he was a visiting researcher at the University of Maryland Baltimore County and the Fraunhofer Center for Experimental Software Engineering. As a professor with broad experience in Software Engineering research and industry, Prof. Rodrigo has researched technical debt in software projects since his Post-Doc. Currently, he is considered a leader in the area in the whole of Latin America. Moreover, he was recently cited by a study published in the Journal of Systems & Software as one of the Top 10 Most Impactful Software Engineering Researchers at the "Consolidators" Level. This is in part due to his productivity in terms of disseminated papers (about 87 in total) in high-impact venues. His papers have been cited more than 1880 times and the annual number of citations is growing (391 citations in the last year). His current h-index is 23. Currently, Prof. Rodrigo has close cooperation with researchers from several institutions around the globe. Earlier this year (2021), he received the Research Productivity Distinction Grant from the Brazilian National Research Council (PQ Level 2).
