CURRENT PROJECTS
My main interests are on the timing and functional verification of critical real-time systems, with particular emphasis on
the automotive, avionics, space and railway domains, and with a clear constraint:
applicability in industrial products (either in the short or long term).
My research is often articulated through collaborative projects with industry:
Microprocessor design for safety critical systems,
see ISOLDE (web TBD), NimbleAI, NEUROPULS, FRACTAL, De-RISC, SELENE, EPI
Use of AI in safety critical systems,
see SAFEXPLAIN, REBECCA
Timing verification with MicroBenchmarks technology,
see MASTECS
Timing verification for Space systems, together with the European Space Agency (ESA),
see [ESA projects]
Timing verification with probabilistic means with Avionics, Space, Railway and Automotive industry,
see SuPerCom, PROXIMA, PROARTIS
Timing verification on COTS processors,
see SAFURE
Functional verification on automotive processors (Infineon),
see VeTeSS
Timing verification on time-determistic processor prototypes,
see parMERASA
