Curriculum Vitae

Nicolas Guelfi is professor at the Faculty of Sciences, Technologies and Communications of the University of Luxembourg since march 1999 where he teaches, direct PhD students and makes researches in collaboration with national and international partners. Currently, he is a leading member of Laboratory for Advanced Software Systems that includes about 25 staff working on 12 national and international research projects. He is the chairman of the ERCIM working groups on rapid integration of software engineering techniques ( RISE ) and he has been the ERCIM Luxembourgian representative at the executive committee of the ERCIM European consortium . His main research and development activities concerns the engineering and the evolution of reliable and secure distributed and mobile systems based on semi-formal methods and transformations. He is the author of around 70 publications in books, journals, conferences and workshops.
Before 1999, he did a PhD thesis in 1994 at the University of Paris XI-Orsay in France in the field of formal specification of concurrent systems. In 1994 and 1995, he worked as a research and teaching assistant at university of Paris XII-Creteil and then joined for 4 years the Software Engineering Laboratory at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne where he has participated to teaching, research projects and PhD thesis supervision. He has mainly worked on software engineering methods and tools for distributed systems and have introduced in collaboration with Dr. D. Buchs the specification formalism CO-OPN which is currently on of the main approaches in the field of Petri nets and object orientation. He also worked on informal and semi-formal methodologies applied to the engineering of distributed systems and data bases. He has been involved in three European ESPRIT BRA projects (DEMON, CALIBAN, DEVA), five national research project and three technology transfer projects.
