Marieke Huisman
Marieke Huisman is a professor in Software Reliability, leading the Formal Methods and Tools group at the Univ. of Twente, Netherlands. She obtained her PhD in 2001 from the Univ. of Nijmegen, in the area of semantics and verification of sequential Java programs. She worked 8 years at INRIA Sophia Antipolis, France on verification of concurrent programs. In 2008 she joined the UT. She leads the development of the VerCors program verifier for concurrent software. For this work, she has received the support of several personal grants, such as an ERC Starting Grant, and a Vici grant from the Dutch Science Organisation. She has been chairing Versen, the Dutch association of software researchers, and works hard to improve the overall visibility of software research.
Gail E Kaiser
Prof. Kaiser's research interests lie at the boundary of software engineering and software systems, focusing on software reliability, privacy and security, and social software engineering. She served on the editorial board of IEEE Internet Computing for many years, was a founding associate editor of ACM TOSEM, and chaired an ACM FSE Symposium. She has directed her department's doctoral program since 1997. Prof. Kaiser received her PhD from CMU and her ScB from MIT.

She obtained her Professor title and was appointed for the professorship by the President of the Slovak Republic.
Her research interests include Complex Service Systems Engineering, Service Analytics, and Applied Mathematics.
Marco Lapegna
In 1991 Marco Lapegna received his PhD in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science at the University of Naples Federico II (Italy), and since 2001 is a professor of Computer Science at the Department of Mathematics and Applications of the same university.
His main research interests concern methods, algorithms, and software for parallel and distributed computing environments applied to computational mathematics and machine learning, taking into account the influence of the technological evolution on them (cluster computing, multicore computing, grid computing, cloud, and edge computing). He has an active academic life with several institutional coordination duties.
Ahyoung Lee
Ahyoung Lee received her M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Colorado, Denver, in 2006 and 2011, respectively. She was a postdoctoral fellow at Georgia Institute of Technology in the BWN Lab under the supervision of Prof. Ian F. Akyildiz with a research project focused on Software Defined Networking (SDN) from 2013 to 2015. Currently, she is an Assistant Professor within the Department of Computer Science at the Kennesaw State University. Her current research interest focuses on modeling and analysis with applications in SDN, mobile wireless network, cyber‐physical systems, sensor networks, future Internet architecture for improving Big Data centers, Internet of Things (IoT), and Internet‐centric technologies in the cloud for network management.
