2 A Short Personal History 1988 Software Engineer CISI Ingénierie Paris, France 1989 Research scientist Software Engineering Laboratory University of Maryland and NASA GSFC MD, USA 1994 Lead Scientist in software engineering Computer Research Institute of Montreal Montreal, Canada 1996 Head of the Software Quality Engineering department, Fraunhofer Institute for Software Engineering Kaiserslautern, Germany 1999 Canada Research Chair in Software Quality Engineering (Tier I) Full professor Systems and Computer Engineering, Carleton University Ottawa, Canada 2008 Head of the Certus center on Software Verification and Validation Simula Research Laboratory University of Oslo, Norway 2012 Professor, PEARL Chair, Vice-Director Interdisciplinary Centre for ICT Security, Reliability, and Trust (SnT) University of Luxembourg, Luxembourg

Consistency of institution and researcher’s goals Location International Cost of living Education and health care system Working conditions Starting grant Salary Funding schemes 3 Factors

Location Highly international Reasonable cost of living (except for housing) Good education and health care system Working conditions FNR funding schemes PEARL grant Competitive salaries 4 Why Luxembourg?

University of Luxembourg New institution International Well funded SnT Centre for ICT Security, Reliability, and Trust Collaborative research with industry and public partners Focused on combining research excellence and real-world impact 5 Why Luxembourg?

Pensions and mobility Lack of common EU pension scheme In North-America, private pension schemes with support of employer No compulsory retirement age for professors In many EU countries, to various extents, universities and research institutes are managed like public services Limited incentives to support excellence and risk-taking A problem particularly acute in fields where teams are large, collaboration with the private sector is desirable, and a scientist’s responsibilities go far beyond scientific excellence EU projects: low success rates and high overheads Significant waste of time 6 Challenges in the EU
