Sebastian Erdweg is a Professor at the Institute of Programming and Software Engineering at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU Mainz) in Germany. He actively contributes to the programming languages research community as evidenced by his extensive involvement in major conferences including PLDI, ECOOP, SPLASH, and ICFP. His leadership roles include serving as Workshops Co-Chair for ECOOP and ISSTA 2023, Steering Committee Chair for GPCE, and various program committee positions across multiple conferences. His research primarily focuses on programming language design and implementation, with particular expertise in incremental computation, Datalog-based systems, abstract interpretation, and language workbenches. Erdweg's work bridges theoretical foundations with practical applications in static analysis, compiler construction, and program transformation. His research demonstrates a consistent thread of improving developer productivity through better language design and tooling, with recent work emphasizing efficient incremental program analysis techniques. Erdweg's publication record shows a strong emphasis on Datalog as a foundation for program analysis, with increasing focus on incremental techniques and WebAssembly analysis in recent years. His work combines theoretical rigor with practical implementation, often resulting in open-source tools that advance the state of the art in language engineering. The consistent appearance of Datalog, incremental computation, and abstract interpretation across his publications indicates a cohesive research vision spanning over a decade. As an active member of the programming languages community, Erdweg has served in numerous organizational roles including Workshops Co-Chair for ECOOP and ISSTA 2023, Steering Committee Chair for GPCE, and various program committee positions. His contributions to conference organization demonstrate his standing within the academic community and commitment to advancing research in programming languages and software engineering.
