LFCS Seminar: 5 July 2022 - Jane Hillston Title: A random walk in quantitative verification Abstract: When I started work on the modelling language PEPA during my PhD I did not have any great scheme or plan. But it planted a seed that has flourished and developed into a branch of research in quantitative verification. Julian has asked me to give a talk about that development, from a very personal perspective. So this talk will be mild on technical detail but will provide one example of how a career and a programme of work has successfully progressed over thirty years, with reflections on the scientific questions that motivated me, integrating work and life, and lessons that I have learned in a very general sense.
