Who is visiting us this month
Jolita Ralyté

Jolita Ralyté is currently a senior researcher and lecturer in the Department of Information Systems at the University of Geneva. The research areas of Dr. Ralyté include
situational methods engineering i came tool development, among others. She has participated in diverse European research projects, and her work has been published in various international conferences and in international journals. The research group GESSI, managed by Xavier Franch, has invited Dr. Ralyté to work with LSI during April. Last week, from the 7th of April until the 11th of the same month, Professor Jolita Ralyté taught
Methods and Methods Engineering for IS development for the Master in Computing.
Tobias Müller

The research group ALBCOM will count on the presence of Professor Tobias Müller from the Technische Universiteit Eindhover from the 14th of April until the 25th of that same month.
Professor Müller is a biocomputing Engineering. He works on a raising discipline. His research interests are combinatorics and probability including random and extremal graph theory, graph colouring and choosability, discrete and stochastic geometry and probabilistic analysis of algorithms.
Geert Poels

Three days after saying good bye to Professor Müller and again related to the Master in Computing, we will be glad to welcome Professor Geert Poels. Professor Poels has been invited by the research group GESSI and he will be in charged of teaching
Experimental Research on Conceptual Modelling. The courses will be hold on Omega Building at the room S216 from Monday the 28th until Wednesday, the 30th of April.
David Turner

David Turner has held professorships at Queen Mary College, University of Texas at Austin and the University of Kent. He is currently Emeritus Professor at Middlesex University and also at the University of Kent. Professor Turner is best known as the inventor of combinator graph reduction and for designing and implementing a series of pure non-strict functional programming languages, including Miranda which was the main precursor of Haskell. He invented or coinvented many of the ideas which are now standard in functional programming including pattern matching with guards, list comprehensions and the "list of successes" method for eliminating backtracking. His current research interests include "strong functional programming", in which all computations terminate, type systems with dependent types and connections between functional programming and intuitionist logic.
He is being invited by Silvia Clérici and Cristina Zoltan to work together in graphic-functional language issues. He will be around LSI from the 13th to the 17th of May.
