My name is Jacques Klein. I am currently a full time project manager at the Public Research Center Gabriel Lippmann in Belvaux, Luxembourg. I work on several IT research projects on software engineering.
During May 2008, I have been involved in the VERITY project in the domains of Fault-Tolerant System and Model-Driven Engineering at the University of Luxembourg  in the LASSY Laboratory under the supervision of Prof. Nicolas Guelfi.
In 2007, I participated in the SPLIT project.
I am very interested in Aspect-Oriented Modelling, Model Transformations and Composition, Software Product Lines, Test and Security, the formal manipulation of behavioural models (Sequence Diagrams, MSC, ...).
From October 2003 to December 2006, I was a PhD student at IRISA in the Triskell team (thesis title: Weaving and Behavioural Aspects) under the supervision of Prof. J.M. Jézéquel and L. Hélouët.

Short Bio:

In 2003, Dr Jacques Klein received an engineering degree in Computer Science from the ESSAIM (ENSISA) and a Master in Computer Science from the University of Haute-Alsace, France. He received a Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from the University of Rennes, France in 2006 for a dissertation on the weaving of behavioral models (UML) in a Model-Driven Engineering and Product Line contexts. Part of his doctorate work has been to propose new software engineering tools to reduce the cost and the risk of software development by adapting software systems to wide ranges of new contexts. In 2007/2008, he worked for two years at the University of Luxembourg as a scientific collaborator. He participated in the SPLIT project to propose new transformation languages to support software product lines. He is also participating in the VERITY project to ease the design of reliable software systems. Finally, he successfully proposed two research projects, one on the security testing of resilient systems and one on the mix of SPL and AOSD.

In 2009, he moved to a full time position at the CRP-Gabriel Lippmann, Belvaux, Luxembourg, to work on several IT projects as project manager. He now works in the ISC department of the CRP-Gabriel Lippmann. One of the main research topics of the research centre is to foster the development of high-value added business services by using Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA).
