BIOGRAPHY OF WORKSHOP CHAIR: Professor Vladan Devedzic (Associate Professor) is both an active researcher and a practitioner in the field of intelligent systems. His major long-term professional goal involves a continuous effort to bring together ideas from the broad fields of intelligent systems and software engineering. He has written more than 150 papers (20 of which have been published in internationally recognized journals by publishers such as ACM, IEEE, Pergamon Press). He has also written three books on intelligent systems. Both his M.Sc. and Ph.D. theses software engineering of intelligent systems. He has developed several practical intelligent systems and tools, and actively participates as a consultant to several ongoing projects in industry.

Professor Devedzic is currently with the Department of Information Systems in the FON --- School of Business Administration at the University of Belgrade. He teaches several courses on intelligent systems and software engineering, and is the chair of the intelligent systems tracks for the program committees of several international conferences and of two annual national conferences on computer science. He has also given eight different tutorials on intelligent systems and software engineering at other international conferences, numerous lectures and in-house seminars on different software engineering topics, an invited talk at an IEEE-sponsored conference in March 2000, and seven nationwide tutorials on current trends in software engineering.
