Working as
an associate
professor at the Department of
Computer
Science, I am involved in several research projects and I am
teaching
in Real-Time Programming. That is also the subject for my research
which
includes Robot Control Systems and related software technologies. I
care
about implementation and industrially relevant test cases. For
instance,
the Laboratory
for Application Languages and the Real-Time
Garbage Collector developed within our
group have been used for programming and real-time control of
industrial
robots from ABB. These robots that we use are available at the Dept.
of Automatic Control , in the Robotics and Real-Time Laboratory
which
I take care of as part of ongoing research projects financed by ARTES
and NUTEK.
My background is from Mechanical Engineering here at LTH but with extra courses in mathematics, control theory, computer technology (hardware), and software technology (programming). Then I worked six years at ABB Robotics Products with development of motion control systems. Needing more control theory, I went back to Lund for graduate studies at the Dept. of Automatic Control . Taking a problem-oriented approach to improve the control of industrial robots, the research brought me more into the field of computer science. After finishing my Ph.D. thesis, I went back to ABB Robotics Products where I worked with new software principles for robot programming. Being settled in southern Sweden, however, I am now back in Lund at the Department of Computer Science where I can be reached via...
