  Bio: David Harel has been at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel since 1980. He was Department Head from 1989 to 1995, and was Dean of the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science between 1998 and 2004. He was also co-founder of I-Logix, Inc. He received his PhD from MIT in 1978, and has spent time at IBM Yorktown Heights, and sabbaticals at Carnegie-Mellon University, Cornell University and the University of Edinburgh. In the past he worked mainly in theoretical computer science (logic, computability, automata, database theory), and now he works in software and systems engineering, modeling biological systems, and the synthesis and communication of smell. He is the inventor of statecharts and co-inventor of live sequence charts, and co-designed Statemate, Rhapsody and the Play-Engine. Among his awards are the ACM Karlstrom Outstanding Educator Award (1992), the Israel Prize (2004), the ACM Software System Award (2007), and three honorary degrees. He is a Fellow of the ACM, the IEEE and the AAAS.

  The author describes his dream about freeing ourselves from the straightjackets of programming, making the process of getting computers to do what we want intuitive, natural, and also fun.He recommends harnessing the great power of computing and transforming a natural and almost playful means of programming so that it becomes fully operational and machine-doable.

  David Harel is the William Sussman Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Applied Mathematics at the Weizmann Institute of Science.Harel invented statecharts, coinvented live-sequence charts, and was a member of the team that designed Statemate and Rhapsody.He also codeveloped the play-in/play-out approach to scenario-based programming and the Play-Engine.Recently, he has also been working on odor communication and biological modeling.He is a fellow of the IEEE, the AAAS, and the ACM.Contact him at dharel@weizmann.ac.il.
