Egon Börger (born 13 May 1946[2]) is a German-born computer scientist based in Italy.
Life and work
Börger was born in
Université Catholique de Louvain, Institut Supérieur de Philosophie de Louvain and University of Münster (Germany). Between 1972 and 1976, he was at the Università di Salerno in Italy,[3]
where he taught the first courses in the newborn Computer Science Degree.
Since 1985 he has held a Chair in computer science at the University of Pisa, Italy. Since September 2010, he has been an elected member of the Academia Europaea.[4]
Egon Börger is a pioneer of applying logical methods in computer science. He is co-founder of the international conference series CSL.formal method for accurate and controlled design and analysis of computer-based systems [6] and cofounder of the series of international ASM workshops,[7] which in 2008 merged with the regular meetings of the B and Z User Groups to form the international ABZ conference.[8]
Börger contributed to the theoretical foundations of the method and initiated its industrial applications in a variety of fields, in particular
web services
.
To this date, he is one of the leading scientists in ASM-based modeling and verification technology, which he has crucially shaped by his activities. In 2007, he received the Humboldt Research Award.[9]
Festschrifts were produced for Börger's 60th and 75th birthdays.[10][11]
