Research Interests

I used to be a student at Information Technology, Department of Computer Systems (DoCS) at Uppsala University, Uppsala, Sweden.

I'm was a member of the Hard Real-Time Systems (HRTS) group at DoCS. My research interests where in the field of real-time systems, especially distributed real-time systems and schedulabiliy analysis.

Schedulability Analysis

My PhD thesis " Predictable High-Speed Communications for Distributed Real-Time Systems", in which I present a new traffic model for real-time communication and an associated Response Time Analysis (RTA), was successfully defended in May 2000. In it also present a comparative study where other popular analysis/scheduling methods are examined. I show that RTA yield better network utilisation than other methods at the cost of longer analysis time.

Read more about this in my published papers and thesis page.

Execution-Time Analysis

I was also active in the field of Worst-Case Execution Time (WCET) analysis. Here we try to solve the problem of a priori (i.e. statically) determine the WCET of a program (or piece of a program). This information crucial when integrating a system of multiple programs, in order to be able to perform a schedulability analysis.

I also haw a few published papers in this area.
