Manuel I. Capel-tunon is a seasoned academic and computer scientist with over three decades of experience in formal methods, temporal logics, and concurrent real-time systems, holding a PhD from the University of Granada and a full professorship there. He leads the Concurrent Systems research group and has driven practical advances such as UML-RT model transformations, an on-the-fly model-checker for Future Interval Logic, and the compositional MEDISTAM-RT verification method for critical systems. With more than 40 publications and an editorial role at the Journal of Network and Computer Applications, he bridges rigorous theory and applied verification for embedded and safety-critical software. Unusually for a long-serving professor, he also contributes to open-source engineering—fixing Java backend issues in the widely used Sakai LMS—demonstrating hands-on expertise in real-world educational platforms.
