E. Allen Emerson

Emerson is recognized together with Edmund M. Clarke and Joseph Sifakis for the invention and development of model checking, a technique used in formal verification of software and hardware. His contributions to temporal logic and modal logic include the introduction of computation tree logic (CTL) and its extension CTL*, which are used in the verification of concurrent systems. He is also recognized along with others for developing symbolic model checking to address combinatorial explosion that arises in many model checking algorithms. Provided by Wikipedia
