Roderick Bloem

Univ.-Prof. Ph.D.

Formal Methods, Professor

Roderick Bloem received his M.Sc. degree in Computer Science from Leiden University, the Netherlands in 1996, and his Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from the University of Colorado at Boulder, in 2001. He joined Graz University of Technology in 2002. From 2008, he has been a full professor of Computer Science at the same university and is currently head of the department of Computer Science and Biomedical Engineering.
Roderick Bloem has published over 100 peer reviewed papers in formal verification, reactive synthesis and security and is an editor of the Handbook of Model Checking. He led the Austrian National Research Network on Rigorous Systems Engineering and has organized events including the Computer Aided Verification conference and Formal Methods in Computer Aided Design.
