Sana Malik

My name is Sana Malik, and I'm a currently a rising junior in the College of Arts & Sciences at the University of Delaware, majoring in Computer Science with a minor in Math. This is the first time I'm doing research in Computer Science, and I'm hoping I'll enjoy it because I'd like to go to graduate school after I graduate in May 2011.

I tend to keep myself busy with school, but when I have free time, you can usually find me working on some project. I'm one of those people who gets obsessed with one thing for a few weeks, then completely drops it and moves onto a totally different thing (only to return to it a few months later). In the past (and some currently) this has included knitting, World of Warcraft, web design, extensive doodling, trying out as many programming languages as possible, photography, typography (!! I made a font, but I lost it in a harddrive crash!), making friendship bracelets and other childhood crafts. Other than that, I love the internet, and that's about it!

Emily Hill

Emily HillI am working with Emily Hill this summer on the NLPA project.

Emily is a Ph. D. candidate in Computer Science at the University of Delaware. She is a member of the Natural Language Program Analysis (NLPA) Group in the HiperSpace Lab under the advisement of Lori Pollock and K. Vijay-Shanker. Her research focuses on using natural language clues in conjunction with more traditional program analysis to improve software tools for program comprehension and maintenance.
