Since the beginning of 2014 until March 2017, I was involved in the European Industrial Doctorate Programme - RetNet. Thanks to that programme, I was:

• an industrial Ph.D. student at the School of Innovation, Design, and Engineering at Mälardalen University, Västerås, Sweden,

• and employed at TTTech Computertechnik AG in Vienna, Austria as a Marie Curie researcher. 
   

Based in Vienna, I was often in Västerås for short time business trips (project meetings, EU reporting), as well as for periods three months in order to attend to courses needed for the Ph.D. degree. 

Apart from the Ph.D. studies, my main job as a Marie Curie researcher at the company can be summarized as follows:

• Research in the field of real-time, safety, sensor-fusion, and autonomous vehicles,

• Documenting the research results in the form of scientific papers and submitting to relevant scientific conferences,

• Attending and presentation at scientific conferences,

• Writing of technical patents and posters, 

• And just as important, implementing the research work on automotive compliant embedded platforms for experimenting and demonstration purposes.

Few of the papers can be found under the following list:

• Improving Dependability of Vision-Based Advanced Driver Assistance Systems Using Navigation Data and Checkpoint Recognition, at Springer International Conference on Computer Safety, Reliability & Security [link to download]

• Deterministic Ethernet: Addressing the Challenges of Asynchronous Sensing in Sensor Fusion Systems at IEEE DSN workshop on Safety and Security of Intelligent Vehicles [link to paper]

• Improving Intelligent Vehicle Dependability by Means of Infrastructure-Induced Tests, at IEEE DSN workshop on Safety and Security of Intelligent Vehicles [link to paper]
