Bio:Olivier is a Computing Science professor at University of Rennes, and a researcher at IRISA. His most constant domain of interest is the use of logic for computing, modeling and accessing data. He is inclined to apply his ideas in distant domains, most often linguistics or natural science. He is used to operational responsibilities, twice Head of a teaching department, once Head of a research department, several times Head of different teaching programs, and is familiar with the mix of farseeing and pragmatics this implies.

Bio: Stéphane Crozat is a teacher in the computer science department of Université de Technologie de Compiègne and a researcher in the Costech lab.
