In this talk, I will illustrate a novel approach that aims to marry reuse-driven and model-driven development principles with engineering considerations of great concern to high-integrity real-time systems, for which the specification of properties to be preserved at runtime is paramount.
Tullio Vardanega graduated in computer science at the University of Pisa, Italy, in 1986. In 1998 he earned a PhD degree in computer science from the Technical University of Delft, The Netherlands, while being staff member of the European Space Research and Technology Centre (ESTEC) at Noordwijk in the Netherlands. At ESTEC, over the period 1991-2001 he held responsibilities for research and technology transfer projects as a lead person in the area of onboard embedded real-time software. In January 2002 he was appointed lecturer in Computer Science, Faculty of Science, at the University of Padua, Italy, before becoming associate professor in October 2004. At Padua he took on teaching and research responsibilities in the areas of high-integrity real-time systems, quality of service under real-time constraints and software engineering methods and processes for such environments. He has authored numerous papers and technical reports on these subjects.
