Design Automation for Smart Factories

Rethinking the design foundations of high-assurance intelligent manufacturing systems

Team

Michele Lora, Ph.D.
Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellow

Michele is a Marie Sklodowska Curie Fellow at the University of Verona. He received the Ph.D. in Computer Science form the University of Verona in 2016. He also holds a M.Sc. degree in Computer Science and Engineering and a B.Sc. in Computer Science from the University of Verona. Michele is also a proud Erasmus alumnus.

His research focuses on design automation methodologies for modeling, integration and efficient simulation of heterogeneous embedded systems, contract-based requirement engineering and verification for cyber-physical systems.

Prof. Franco Fummi
Supervisor at the University of Verona

Prof. Fummi received the PhD degree in electronic engineering from Politecnico di Milano, Milano, Italy, in 1995. Since 2000 he is a full professor at the Department of Computer Science, University of Verona, Italy, and where he is also the project manager of the Industrial Computer Engineering (ICE) Laboratory. Since 1995, he has been with the Department of Electronics and Information, Politecnico di Milano, as an assistant professor. He is a co-founder of EDALab, an EDA company developing tools for the design of networked embedded systems.

His current research interests include electronic design automation methodologies for modeling, verification, testing, and optimization of cyber-physical production systems.

Prof. Pierluigi Nuzzo
Supervisor at the University of Southern California

Prof. Nuzzo is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Electrical Engineering of the University of Southern California, Los Angeles. He received the Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences from the University of California at Berkeley in 2015. He also holds a M.Sc. degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Pisa and the Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies, Pisa, Italy. Prof. Nuzzo is a Marie Sklodowska Curie alumnus.

His research interests include methodologies and tools for the design of cyber-physical systems and mixed-signal systems; contracts, interfaces, and compositional methods for embedded system design and requirement engineering; the application of automated formal methods and optimization theory to problems in embedded and cyber-physical systems and electronic design automation.
