Pascual Julián-Iranzo is an Associate Professor in the Information Technologies and Systems Department at the Higher School of Computer Science, University of Castilla-La Mancha (UCLM), where he has served since April 2003. He is a founding member and current co-director of the DEC-tau research group focused on Declarative Programming and Automatic Program Transformation. His academic career includes over 27 years of university teaching experience across various positions, with significant contributions to curriculum development including the Degree Curriculum in Computer Engineering (2008/09 and 2009/10). Education Background: Doctor in Computer Science (1994-2000) from Universitat Politècnica de València, Department of Computer Systems and Computation His research centers on declarative programming languages with emphasis on fuzzy logic programming, functional-logic paradigm integration, and automatic program transformation. He pioneered work in proximity-based reasoning systems like Bousi-Prolog and FASILL, developing novel approaches for similarity-based unification, thresholded tabulation, and fuzzy deductive databases. His publications demonstrate consistent innovation in fuzzy logic semantics, particularly in handling truth degrees and semantic similarity measures for knowledge representation. Analysis of his 15 most recent publications reveals a strong trajectory in formalizing fuzzy logic programming frameworks, with increasing focus on practical implementations (2018-2023) after establishing theoretical foundations (2015-2017). Key thematic clusters include proximity-based unification algorithms (2018-2021), semantic frameworks for truth degree management (2016-2017), and real-world applications in natural language processing (2021) and security systems (2017). Research Recognition: Positive evaluation by CENAI for three consecutive research periods: [1997-2002], [2003-2008], and [2009-2014] Consistent publication record with 24 scientific journal articles (16 JCR-indexed) As an academic leader, Julián-Iranzo has supervised 2 doctoral theses and chaired the PROLE 2021 Conference Program Committee. His grant portfolio includes significant European funding, notably the MERINET project (2016-2019) supported by ERDF and MINECO. He has served on 12 conference program committees and reviewed for top journals including Journal of Theory and Practice of Logic Programming. His DEC-tau research group maintains active international collaborations, evidenced by coordination of the UCLM node in the ALFA Lernet Project (2005-2009) and partnership with Argentina's National University of San Luis (2009-2013).
