Msc Thesis

AI-based Security Testing

The thesis will explore how artificial intelligence (Large Language Models, Genetic Programming, …) can be leveraged to enhance security testing. The internship is done at the Serval Team at the Security and Trust (SnT) research center of the University of Luxembourg.

Design of an ergonomic nomadic code review environment

While the workstation (with screen, keyboard and mouse as peripherals) has long been the most common installation for computer-intensive employees, the arrival of powerful, versatile tablets and telephones in recent years has overturned this work organization in many professions.

Optimized development interface to reduce the developer's cognitive load during debugging

While workstations (including monitors, keyboard and mouse as peripherals) have long been the most common installation for computer-intensive employees, the arrival of powerful, versatile tablets and telephones has been shaking up this organization of work in many professions for some years now.

Socio-technical Debt

This thesis seeks to explore different aspects of socio-technical debt in the development cycle.

Using the sound dimension in code review tools

The use of music to create favorable conditions for development and programming has become common practice (cf. the use of the lo-fi genre and the emergence of the “code-fi” musical genre).

Improving DevX for test case generation using LLM

The goal of the thesis is to explore how LLMs and Retrieve Augment Generate (RAG) approaches can be leveraged to enhance automated test case generation in IntelliJ. The internship is done at JetBrains Amsterdam.

Multi-dimensional, multi-platform framework for web development

In this thesis, the student will be asked to design a web framework that will enable a developer to design an application that can be deployed as a website, desktop application, mobile application and immersive augmented and virtual reality application.

Test for Virtual and Augmented Reality

There exist very few automated testing frameworks for virtual and augmented reality-based applications. The goal of this master thesis is to define (and implement) such a framework for specific augmented reality technology (to be defined).

Augmented Reality Performance Testing

The goal of this thesis is to design and implement an augmented reality performance testing framework.

Green Coding

These days, IT is increasingly resource-intensive, both in terms of hardware and energy consumption. As a result, the sustainable side of software is an increasingly studied topic in the software engineering community.
