Eelco Visser Commemorative Symposium (EVCS)
5 April 2023
Delft, The Netherlands
https://symposium.eelcovisser.org
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eelco Visser (1966–2022) was Antoni van Leeuwenhoek Professor of
Computer Science and Chair of the Programming Languages Group in the
Department of Software Technology at TU Delft. His research career
started with studies at the University of Amsterdam and CWI, followed
by appointments at Oregon Graduate Institute and Utrecht University.
He was highly influential in the software language engineering and
programming language design communities. His many scientific
contributions about meta-languages and domain-specific languages have
been of high importance in both the scientific and industrial
communities. He was a founding member of IFIP Working Groups 2.11
(Program Generation) and 2.16 (Programming Language Design).
Eelco Visser’s work on the cutting-edge language workbench Spoofax
started with a ground-breaking publication in 2010, for which he
received a Most Influential Paper award at OOPSLA 2020. As a strong
advocate of tool-supported programming education, he led the
development of WebLab, a learning management system that is in use for
a range of programming languages and courses at TU Delft. He also led
the design, implementation and use of conf.researchr.org, a content
management system for scientific events used for hundreds of
international events since 2014.
