Research areas

Prospective candidates should have a proven track record related to one of the following research directions:

- Component Model

This research direction has the main responsibility for developing ProCom, the component model to which all PROGRESS activities are linked.- Formal Modelling and Analysis

This research direction works in the area of formal models, analysis techniques, and tools for verification of embedded systems.

- Timing Analysis

This research direction deals with code-level timing analysis techniques for components and component-based systems, mainly Worst-Case Execution Time (WCET) analysis.

- Dependability

This research direction focuses on techniques for analyzing and ensuring dependability of component based real-time systems.

- Deployment

This research direction provides mappings and translations from the software design to executing code on particular target platforms.

- Development Environment and Process

This research direction provides a tool infrastructure with a set of basic tools and support for integration of other tools (provided by PROGRESS or externally), as well as guidelines for component-based development processes, and techniques for integrating such development in existing processes.

- Componentization of Legacy

This research direction provides methods and techniques that assist in integrating legacy code in the component-based development, as well as providing faithful execution of legacy code in a component-based setting.

- Legacy Property Prediction

This research direction focuses on existing industrial “legacy” systems, with the purpose of providing timing and resource usage information necessary for componentization of legacy code.
