History

IGG group is the first research group in computer science - associated to the CNRS - that was created in Strasbourg by Jean-François Dufourd and Jean Françon, more than twenty years ago.

Since fifteen years this research group is composed of about ten teniors. In 10 years, since Dominique Bechmann came at its head, the group has been almost completey renewed : only Dominique Bechmann, Jean-François Dufourd and Pascal Schreck - who were associate professors (AP) at the time - were already in the team in 1997.

Several events, such as the departure of many researchers for laboratories in Poitiers (Eric Andrès PR, Yves Bertrand PR, Laurent Fuchs AP, Pascal Lienhardt PR), Limoges (Djamchid Ghanzanfarpour PR) and Clermont-Ferrand (Jean-Pierre Réveilles PR), and such as the integration of discrete geometry and mathematical morphology in the MIV group, the return of Jean-Michel Dischler from Limoges on a professor (PR) position in 2001, and the hiring of eight new associate professors during the time period of 2005-2008, have largely recomposed this team and redrawn its scientific contours.
