GoIn-SIGHT participates in the world's premier Software Engineering conference, held for the first time in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Areas in which the group currently research, researches already published and terminated, as well as areas of interest
This branch investigates how to create alliances of interoperable and independent software-intensive systems to conceive large-scale solutions, such as smart cities.
A particular type of System-of-Systems that involves software-intensive Information Systems and require different techniques and notations.
A branch of software engineering that investigates how to decompose software in cohesive modules, how to document it, and how they are related.
This area investigates how to embed software in everyday life objects and prepare them to be connected via networks for multiple purposes. We have investigated this topic for several domains, such as Healthcare, Agriculture and Smart Environments (such as smart campus and smart homes).
It is a distributed registration technology that aims at decentralization as a security measure.
It works in a public, shared and universal way, which creates consensus and trust in direct
communication between two parties, that is, without the intermediation of third parties.
This area is twofold: on one hand, we investigate techniques (with technology or not) to support teaching-learning activities for computing courses at higher education courses; on the other hand, we focus on the adoption of technology to teach any subject in several degrees of schooling degrees.
A branch of software engineering that intensely adopts models in development life cycle, including code automatic generation via model transformations.
A technique used to support both empirical studies on software engineering and providing feedback on structure and behavior of diverse types of systems.
The GOiás INformation Systems and Software EngIneerinG ResearcH Team (GoIn-Sight) is a research group majorly formed by undergraduation, masters and PhD students hosted at the Informatics Institute at the Federal University of Goiás, in Goiânia, Brazil. Researchers and professors from other labs, Brazilian states and countries are also part of our team.
The group name is an acronym to be intentionally interpreted under multiple perspectives: “Go in”, as an expression of invitation to join us, “Sight” as a natural vocation to anticipate the future by means of research, science and innovation, and also another reading: “Go Insight”, as a stimulus to provoke insights during our meetings and while we conduct our research.
The GoIn-Sight main goal/mission is to offer a productive and fruitful environment to (i) involve newcomers and empower them to become researchers, (ii) conduct Research and Development (R&D) projects, and (iii) advance the state of the art in Information Systems and Software Engineering besides disseminating the produced knowledge. Our vision/aim is (i) to become the most expressive research team on Software Engineering and Information Systems in Goiás region, (ii) being one of the most important research groups in those areas in Brazil, and (iii) being internationally acknowledged and scientifically respected due to the quality of the results produced. Our values are ethics, science, knowledge, productivity and truth.
