In today’s world, cyber-physical systems (CPSs) are all around us. While the world changes, the need for more complex cyber-physical systems increases. However, new technological advancements come with new concerns such as energy management and real-time reliability. It is important that we effectively configure these CPSs to deal with these new concerns.

Modeling and optimization play a central role in addressing these challenges. Accurate models allow us to capture the intricate interactions between software and hardware, while optimization techniques enable us to find efficient configurations that meet strict performance requirements. Our research focuses on developing these foundations to ensure CPSs can be designed and configured to operate at their highest potential.

Roel van Os (27) is a PhD candidate in the Electronic Systems group at Eindhoven University of Technology. He received his Master’s degree in Embedded Systems from the same university, after completing a graduation project within the Electronic Systems group. In his PhD project, the focus lies on modeling and optimization of software in automotive systems. His current work centers on scheduling periodic tasks in resource-constrained environments.
