DONG Jin Song

Professor
Deputy Head, Department Of Computer Science


  • Ph.D. (University of Queensland, Australia, 1995)
  • B.InfTech. (Software Engineering, 1st Class Honours, University of Queensland, Australia, 1992)

Jin Song has joined in the School of Computing at the National University of Singapore (NUS) in 1998 and currently he is a full professor at SoC. His research is in the areas of formal methods, model checking, semantic technology, safety & security critical systems and probabilistic reasoning. With his former PhD student Sun Jun and Liu Yang, they co-founded PAT reasoning system which has attracted 4000+ registered users from 900+ organizations in 89 countries, including, e.g., AutoNetworks Tech, Toyota, NTT, Mitsubishi, Japan Aerospace eXploration Agency, BD Biosciences, etc. Jin Song is on the editorial board of ACM Transaction on Software Engineering and Methodology, Formal Aspects of Computing, and Innovations in Systems and Software Engineering A NASA Journal. Jin Song has been a Visiting Fellow at Oxford University, UK, and a Visiting Professor at National Institute of Informatics, Japan. He has successfully supervised 25 PhD students and many of them have become tenure track faculty members in the leading universities around the world, including NTU, SUTD, HUST, Tianjin U, Monash U and Auckland U.
