His main research interests are requirements engineering, socio-technical systems design, scenario-driven approaches and creativity in design. Neil is co-founder and organiser of the BCS Requirements Engineering Specialist Group. He was Programme Chair for RE'04, was founder and programme chair of EMRPS99, co-chair of REP99, and has sat on numerous programme committees. He is on the editorial Boards of the IEEE Software and the Requirements Engineering Journal. He is the Editor of IEEE Software's Requirements Column, and was on the editorial board of IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering from 2004-2008. Neil is co-founder of City University's Interdisciplinary Centre for Creativity in Professional Practice.
Alessandra Russo is a Reader in Applied Computational Logic within the Department of Computing, Imperial College London. Her research interest include Logic, Artificial Intelligence and their applications in Software Engineering with a focus on the development of formal frameworks, based on abductive and inductive reasoning, for the analysis and learning of requirements. Dr Russo is author of over 80 publications in international conferences and journals. She is editor-in-chief of the IEE Software Journal. She has given invited talks at many UK and abroad academic institutions, and been one of the invited speakers at the International Workshop on Formal Approaches to Ubiquitous Systems (2009). She has served on the program committees of many international conferences, and is currently co-investigator on the EPSRC Platform Grant "AEDUS2" and "PRIMMA" project and on an ITA funded project in collaboration with IBM Watson Research Center. She is also Editor-in-Chief of the IET Software journal.
