Håkan Gustavsson (not working at IDT anymore)


I am an industrial researcher at Scania CV AB in Södertälje, Sweden. I have been been working with vehicle electronic systems integration and architecture since 2002. I recieved my B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering at the Royal Institute of Technology 2002 after completing my studies with a final year at Fachhochschule Zentral Schweiz. My research area is systems engineering of vehicle electronics. My licentiatie thesis was accepted in 2008, where a method was presented on how to improve the decisions made during the early phases of E/E-system development. My current research focus on how Lean principles can improve the development process of software-intensive system. My PhD thesis investigates how Lean thinking can be applied to system architecting and was defended in march 2011.
