Computing Methodologies

Franz Baader, born on 15 June 1959 in Spalt, is a German computer scientist at Dresden University of Technology. He received his PhD in computer science in 1989 from the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, where he had been a teaching and research assistant for four years, and in 1989 went to the German Research Centre for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI) as a senior researcher and project leader. In 1993 he became associate professor of computer science at RWTH Aachen and in 2002 full professor at TU Dresden. He received the Herbrand Award for 2020 in recognition of his significant contributions to unification theory, combinations of theories and reasoning in description logics. His books include Term Rewriting and All That (1998, with Tobias Nipkow), The Description Logic Handbook (2003) and An Introduction to Description Logic (2017, with Ian Horrocks, Carsten Lutz and Uli Sattler).
