Larry Bernstein, Industry Research Professor of Software Engineering at Stevens Institute of Technology, recently delivered a series of lectures in France as part of the IEEE Computer Society’s Distinguished Visitors Program. An internationally recognized authority on quantitative software engineering, Bernstein addressed audiences in Paris and Rheims about “trustworthy” software, covering requirements for engineering in software systems. Bernstein’s presentation was based, in part, on his book, Trustworthy Systems Through Quantitative Software Engineering (Wiley, 2005), co-authored with C.M. Yuhas.
Speakers in the IEEE Computer Society’s program are recognized authorities with a record of public speaking at conferences and technical meetings. These speakers also have published noteworthy scholarly articles and books in their fields of study.
Bernstein is the Director of Stevens’ Quantitative Software Engineering program. Before joining Stevens, he was a senior executive at Bell Laboratories, managing software projects for the company. Today, his systems are employed worldwide in industry. A Fellow of IEEE and the Association for Computing Machinery, he serves on the Board of the Center for National Software Studies and is Director of the New Jersey Center for Software Engineering. Earlier, he served on the Board of Governors of the IEEE Communications Society.
