Biography

Doron Peled^[4] was born in 1962 in Haifa. He obtained his D.Sc in computer science from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology in 1991 under the supervision of Prof. Shmuel Katz and Prof. Amir Pnueli on verification methods in temporal logic. After a post-doctoral year at the University of Warwick, he joined Bell Labs, where he worked between 1992 and 2001. He was then appointed as an associated professor at the University of Texas at Austin and after a year to a professor and chair of software engineering at the University of Warwick.

In 2006 Doron returned to Israel and joined Bar-Ilan University as a professor of computer science. He served as the department chair between 2013 and 2016.^[5]

Research

Peled is known for his contribution in computer science in the area of formal methods.^[6] This includes partial order reduction,^[7] which is a method for reducing the time and space required to automatically verify a concurrent system, for which he received the 2014 CAV award with Patrice Godefroid, Antti Valmari and Pierre Wolper.^[1] Together with Mihalis Yannakakis and Moshe Vardi he developed black box checking,^[8] a method for automatically verifying black box systems. Together with Klaus Havelund he developed the tool DejaVu^[9] for the runtime verification of sequences of events with lots of data.
