Dominique Luzeaux graduated from École Polytechnique (1987) and École Nationale Supérieure des Techniques Avancées (1989) as an armament engineer. His first position was a research engineer in theoretical computer science and robotics. He defended his PhD thesis at the University of Paris XI (1991), and was a visiting research scientist at the University of California at Berkeley (1991-1992). Back to France, he occupied various positions within the Ministry of Defense, successively as an expert, a manager, head of department and technical director, in the fields of robotics, optoelectronics and observation systems. Since April 2009 he is Director of the Division in charge of the procurement of Land Systems.

Besides, he defended in 2001 his Professor thesis, has directed a dozen of PhD students in robotics and computer science, and has published over sixty articles in conferences and international journals. He teaches robotics, theoretical computer science, system engineering, at graduate level in various universities and engineering schools.

Dominique Luzeaux also coauthored with Thierry Puig a book “À la conquête du nanomonde : nanotechnologies et microsystèmes” published March 2007 by Éditions du Félin. He has coauthored two books with Jean-René Ruault, “Systèmes de systèmes : concepts et illustrations pratiques” and “Ingénierie des systèmes de systèmes : méthodes et outils”, published June 2008 by Éditions Lavoisier Hermes Science, and to be published in English by Wiley in 2010 as “Systems of systems: concepts, illustrations, standards and methods”. He has also coauthored one book with Pascal Cantot, “Simulation et modélisation des systèmes de systèmes : vers la maîtrise de la complexité”, published 2009 by Éditions Lavoisier Hermes Science. He is currently working on another book on case studies of systems of systems, to be published by Éditions Lavoisier Hermes in 2010.
