Name:Kurt Schneider
Bio:
Kurt Schneider studied computer science in Erlangen, Germany, and received his Doctoral degree from Stuttgart University in 1994. Until 1996, he held a Postdoc position at the Center for LifeLong Learning and Design (L3D) in Boulder, Colorado, USA. He joined the Daimler Research Center in Ulm, Germany and was a researcher and manager until 2003. Since then, he is a full professor of Software Engineering. He visited OpenUniversity in Milton Keynes, UK, VTT in Oulu, Finland, BTH in Karlskrona, Sweden, and FBK in Trento, Italy for several months each. He is most interested in the interchange between people and technology in software engineering, such as in requirements engineering, software quality, or communication.
