Lero Industry Research DayMonday October 14th Tierney Building, University of Limerick

Prof. Mike Hinchey, Director

Dear Guests,

We are delighted that you’re able to join us for the first Lero Industry Research Day. This builds on the success of our prior industry events and combines themed workshops, poster sessions and demonstrations.

Lero - the Irish Software Engineering Research Centre conducts research in the field of Evolving Critical Systems, that is software which is critical to an organization’s success and which must also be able to evolve (perhaps at run-time) or be evolved in order to meet organizational needs. In this area, Lero works closely with industry (both SMEs and MNCs) and academic collaborators. You will learn more about our research and outreach activities during the day.

A highlight of the day is an address by European Commissioner for Research, Innovation and Science, Máire Geoghegan-Quinn, and a response by Minister for Research and Innovation, Seán Sherlock, TD. A more technical keynote will be given by Prof. Jan Bosch and Prof. Helena Holmström Olsson.

We hope that you will make use of this opportunity to learn more about Lero’s research and to get to know Lero researchers. We hope too that you may be able to see ways in which Lero research may help you in your own work and to identify ways in which we may potentially collaborate.

Sincerely,
