Internal Reference Group
The internal reference group consisting of the leaders of the five included research directions together with the TSS leaders.
Cristina Seceleanu is Professor of Computer Science and Docent at MDU, Networked and Embedded Systems (NES) division, and research leader of the Computer and Data Science (CDS) research direction. She received a MSc. in Electronics from Polytechnic University of Bucharest, Romania, in 1993, and a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Åbo Akademi and Turku Centre for Computer Science, Åbo/Turku, Finland, in Dec. 2005. Her research focuses on developing formal models and verification techniques for designing predictable real-time, adaptive and autonomous systems.
Maria Lindén's research profile falls within the area Health Technology, including Biomedical Sensor Systems and Signal Processing. I am particularly working with design, implementation and evaluation of non-invasive sensor systems for registration of physiological parameters as ECG, motion analysis, and blood flow measurements. This also includes signal processing. One of the driving forces for me is to find solutions to real problems, which prerequisites direct contact and dialog with the intended end-users of the systems. I am the leader of the research profile Embedded Sensor Systems for Health (ESS-H)
Jan Carlson received his Master's degree in Computer Science from Linköping University in 2000, and his PhD from Mälardalen University in 2007 with the title "Event Pattern Detection for Embedded Systems". Since 2017 he has been a professor of Computer Science with a focus on Software Engineering at Mälardalen University.
His research focuses on component- and model-based development of embedded systems, and covers, among other things, allocation optimization, time analysis at the model level, the combination of model-based and agile development. Another research track is real-time analysis, especially stack analysis and response time analysis for scheduling under "limited preemption".
Moris Behnam is a professor in computer science with focus on Cyber Physical Systems. He has awarded a B.Eng., and M.Sc. in Computer and Control Engineering at the University of Technology, Iraq, and also MS.c., Licentiate, and PhD in Computer Science and Engineering at MDH, Sweden, in 1995, 1998, 2005, 2008 and 2010 respectively.
Moris has been a visiting researcher at Wayne State University, USA in 2009 and he has been a Postdoctoral Researcher at University of Porto in 2011. His research interests include real-time scheduling, multicore/multiprocessor systems, distributed embedded real-time sysems, industrial cloud computing, internet of things and smart automation.
Mikael's current research goal is to find methods that will make software development cheaper, faster and yield software with higher quality. Concurrently, Mikael is also been pursuing research in analysis of real-time systems, where the goal is to find theoretical models for real-time systems that will allow their timing behavior and memory consumption to be calculated. Mikael received his PhD in computer systems 2000 from Uppsala University (Sweden). Since then he has been working in both academia and in industry with embedded systems, real-time systems, and embedded communications. Previous affiliations include Newline Information, Melody Interactive Solutions and CC Systems. In 2006 he joined MDU faculty as a full professor with specialty in real-time systems and vehicular software-systems.
Thomas Nolte was awarded a B.Eng., M.Sc., Licentiate, and Ph.D. degree in Computer Engineering from Mälardalen University (MDH), Västerås, Sweden, in 2001, 2002, 2003, and 2006, respectively. He has been a Visiting Researcher at University of California, Irvine (UCI), Los Angeles, USA, in 2002, and a Visiting Researcher at University of Catania, Italy, in 2005. He has been a Postdoctoral Researcher at University of Catania in 2006, and at MDH in 2006-2007. Thomas Nolte became an Assistant Professor at MDH in 2008, and Associate Professor at MDH in 2009. 2012 he became Full Professor of Computer Science. Thomas is Scientific Advisor at ABB (2012-2016 @ ABB Corporate Research, and since 2017 @ ABB Robotics). Thomas is Head of Research Education in Embedded Systems at MDU since 2011.
