Composing Model-Based Analysis Tools

Robert Heinrich holds the interim professorship (Professurvertretung) for a full professorship in software engineering at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). He heads the Quality-driven System Evolution research group at KIT and the mobility lab at Competence Center for Applied Security Technology (KASTEL). His research interests include software engineering and evolution with a special focus on model-based analysis of several quality properties for heterogeneous systems.Francisco Durán is Full Professor at the Department of Computer Science of the University of Málaga, Spain. His main research topics are formal methods in software engineering, with a focus on the analysis of complex systems and their compositionality. Carolyn Talcott is a Program Director and leader of the Symbolic Systems Technology group at SRI International in Menlo Park, CA, USA. Her work, published in more than 130 articles, falls under the general heading of formal reasoning about distributed cyber-physical and biological systems.Steffen Zschaler is a Reader in Software Engineering in the Department of Informatics at King's College London, UK. He also directs MDENet, the expert network for model-driven engineering. His research is in model-driven engineering with a particular focus on the foundations of modularity and the optimization of non-functional properties.
