    Joost-Pieter Katoen (born October 6, 1964) is a Dutch theoretical computer scientist based in Germany. He is distinguished professor[1] in Computer Science and head of the Software Modeling and Verification Group[2]atRWTH Aachen University. Furthermore, he is part-time associated to the Formal Methods & Tools group at the University of Twente.[3]

    Education[edit]

    Katoen received his master's degree with distinction in Computer Science from the University of Twente in 1987. In 1990, he was awarded a Professional Doctorate in Engineering from the Eindhoven University of Technology, and in 1996, he received his Ph.D. in computer science from the University of Twente.[4]

    Research[edit]

    Katoen's main research interests are formal methods, computer aided verification, in particular model checking, concurrency theory, and semantics, in particular semantics of probabilistic programming languages.[5] His research is largely tool and application oriented.

    Together with Christel Baier he wrote and published the book Principles of Model Checking.[6]

    Career[edit]

    From 1997 to 1999, Katoen was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg. In 1999, he became an associate professor at the University of Twente, where he still holds a part-time position.[3] In 2004, he was appointed a full professor at RWTH Aachen University.

    In 2013, Katoen became Theodore von Kármán Fellow and Distinguished Professor at RWTH Aachen University. Also in 2013, he was elected member of the Academia Europaea.[7] In 2017, he received an honorary doctorate from Aalborg University.[8] In 2018, Katoen was awarded the highly remunerated ERC Advanced Grant.[9][10] In 2020, Katoen became an ACM Fellow and in 2021, he was elected as member of the Royal Holland Society of Science and Humanities (KHMW).[11][12] In 2022, he was elected as member of the North Rhine-Westphalian Academy of Science, Humanities and the Arts.[13]

    Katoen is a founding member of the IFIP Working Group (WG) 1.8 on Concurrency Theory and a member of the WG 2.2 Formal Description of Programming Concepts. From 2006 to 2010, he was engaged in the Review College of the British Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). During 2015-2019 he chaired the Steering Committee of the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software (ETAPS).[14] Since 2020, he chairs the Steering Committee of the TACAS (Tools and Algorithms for the Construction and Analysis of Systems) conference.

    For his commitment to work-life balance, especially for young Ph.D. students with children, he was awarded the FAMOS Prize by RWTH Aachen University in 2017.[15]

    Katoen's work has received various recognitions among which best / distinguished paper awards (e.g. as ETAPS 2016, IEEE SRDS 2017, LOPSTR 2020 and POPL 2021). In 2022, he received the CONCUR test-of-time award for his CONCUR 1999 paper and in 2023 the Jean-Claude Laprie Award on Dependable Computing for his 2003 paper with Baier, Haverkort and Hermanns on Model-Checking of Continuous-Time Markov chains.[16] [17]

    Personal life[edit]

    Joost-Pieter Katoen was born in Krimpen aan den IJssel in 1964. Katoen is married and has three sons. He lives in Maastricht. In his private time, he enjoys cycling and listening to music.
