María Luisa Bonet

This article is about the Spanish computer scientist. For the Spanish singer, see Maria del Mar Bonet.
In this Spanish name, the first or paternal surname is Bonet and the second or maternal family name is Carbonell.

María Luisa Bonet Carbonell is a Spanish computer scientist interested in logic in computer science, including proof complexity and algorithms for the maximum satisfiability problem. She is a professor of computer science at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia.[1]

Education and career

Bonet is originally from Barcelona.[2] After earning a degree in philosophy at the University of Barcelona in 1984,[3] she became a Fulbright Fellow at the University of California, Berkeley.[2] She earned a master's degree in mathematics there in 1987,[3] and became a doctoral student of Samuel Buss, studying theoretical computer science.[2] Buss moved to the University of California, San Diego in 1988,[4] but Bonet remained at Berkeley; her 1991 doctoral dissertation, The Lengths of Propositional Proofs and the Deduction Rule, listed both Buss and Leo Harrington as co-advisors.[5]

Bonet did postdoctoral research as a Warchawski Assistant Professor at the University of California, San Diego, at the University of Pennsylvania, and at DIMACS in New Jersey. She returned to Barcelona in 1996, to take a position in the computer science department of the Polytechnic University of Catalonia. She became a full professor there in 2007.[2]
