Biography: 

Dr. Majid Babaei holds a Ph.D. in Computing with a focus on Software Engineering under the supervision of Prof. Juergen Dingel from the School of Computing at Queen's University. Dr. Babaei's research interests lie in the development of techniques for model-level debugging and testing of software systems. He is a member of the Professional Development Committee at the Canadian Association for University Continuing Education (CAUCE), as well as he serves on the Strategic Planning Committee of the School of Continuing Studies at McGill University. 

Dr. Babaei actively fosters partnerships between academia and industry, ensuring that educational programs remain aligned with the evolving needs of the professional landscape. His doctoral dissertation on "Regression Testing of Distributed Real-Time Embedded Systems in the Context of Model-Driven Development" provides a comprehensive overview of the primary challenges for performing regression testing in large-scale distributed systems. It also offers promising solutions for these challenges that can be adopted by tech. industries to improve the performance of their testing strategies.
