About me: I am a senior lecturer at Mälardalen University (MDH) working at the Networked and Embedded Systems department. I am affiliated with the Complex Real-Time Embedded Systems (CORE) and the Heterogeneous Systems - Hardware Software Co-design (HERO) research groups. I have received my PhD degree in Computer Science and Engineering from MDH in November 2016, and after that until April 2020 I was an associate researcher at MDH. My doctoral dissertation is on resource reservation for industrial switched Ethernet networks.
Research: Since May 2020 I am a senior lecturer at MDH in the area of data communication. My main focus of research is on resource reservation in communication, where the communication can be in different context, such as automation networks, automotive networks, as well as cloud and fog communication infrastructures. I am also interested in timing analysis and software development of real-time communication networks in various domains. I am working in different research projects, such as developing predictable vehicle software utilizing time-sensitive networking (DESTINE), Federated Choreography of an Integrated Embedded Systems Software Architecture (FIESTA), Predictable Software Development in Connected Vehicles Utilising Blended TSN-5G Networks (PROVIDENT), Future Factories in the Cloud (FiC), and XPRES. My role in DESTINE, FIESTA and PROVIDENT is mostly on developing solutiosn to efficiently use TSN technologies for various domains, e.g., vehicular and automation domains. My role in FiC and XPRES is on developing novel techniques to provide reservation of network resources.
