Simon Butler is an associate senior lecturer in the School of Informatics at the University of Skövde. Simon is a member of the Software Systems Research Group and works on the SUDO project as well as contributing to undergraduate teaching in computer science.
SUDO is a collaborative research project with Swedish industry to investigate and identify solutions to the challenges of sustainable digitalisation. Simon's work focuses on the Internet of Things (IoT) and the challenges faced and practices used by professional developers to use open source software solutions as part of industrial software systems.
Simon's research interests concern aspects of the challenges software developers face when creating and maintaining software. He has particular interests in program comprehension and software maintenance, as well as the socio-technical and educational aspects of software development, particularly in hybrid environments where open source software and proprietary solutions are used together.
