The 16th International AAAI Conference on Web and Social Media (ICWSM 2022) is my first in-person international conference after three years because of the Covid-19 pandemic. In ICWSM’22, I had a long paper accepted as a first author. This paper has a special place in my heart because I wrote the paper while I was […]

I had the opportunity to attend ISCA 2022 in New York this summer, and I feel very thankful and fortunate for this experience. This was not only my first time attending a conference, but I was also part of the organizing committee for the uArch workshop at the conference. The uArch workshop aims to introduce […]

Lavínia Francesca Paganini

My journey for ICSE 2022 started in 2020. I received the ACM-W award to go for ICSE 2020 in Seoul since I had a paper in CHASE (at the time, a workshop; now, it’s a co-located event). However, all the events went virtual – with the uncertainty if they could go back for the in-person […]

Attending the 44th International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE 2022) was my first in-person international conference as the restrictions imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic have changed how scientific conferences occurred in the last two-three years. Although the conference was held in-person, we must wear a mask to ensure the safety and well-being of the attendants. […]
