Bas Cornelissen's homepage


			Hi! Welcome to my permanent temporary homepage. I'm a consultant at the Software Improvement Group (SIG). SIG advises senior management of companies and governmental organizations on the quality of their software. I was formerly a Ph.D. candidate in the Software Engineering Research Group (SERG) at Delft University of Technology, where I researched the use of run-time analysis for software understanding. I obtained my Ph.D. degree on June 23, 2009. My publications can be found below. Aside from my work, you will find me to be a humorous and energetic person! Among my hobbies are sailing, movies, karate, and traveling. Creating decent websites is obviously not among those activities (duh), but I'm sure you prefer this sorry page over a flashy presentation that makes you eyes ache! You can contact me through any of the media at the bottom of this page.
