Rolf
Drechsler is head of Cyber-Physical Systems department at the German Research
Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI) since 2011. Furthermore, he is a Full
Professor at the Institute of Computer Science, University of Bremen, since
2001. Before, he worked for the Corporate Technology Department of Siemens AG,
and was with the Institute of Computer Science, Albert-Ludwig University of
Freiburg/Breisgau, Germany. Rolf Drechsler received the Diploma and Dr. Phil.
Nat. degrees in computer science from the Goethe-University in Frankfurt/Main,
Germany, in 1992 and, respectively, 1995. Rolf Drechsler focusses in his
research at DFKI and in the Group for Computer Architecture, which he is
heading at the Institute of Computer Science of the University of Bremen, on
the development and design of data structures and algorithms with an emphasis
on circuit and system design.
Rolf
Drechsler has been and still is a member of the Program Committees of numerous
conferences (including e.g. DAC, ICCAD, DATE, ASP-DAC, FDL, MEMOCODE, FMCAD)
and is co-founder of the Graduate School of Embedded Systems which started in
2006. Since 2012, he additionally coordinates the Graduate School System
Design.
He
has received Best Paper Awards from numerous international scientific
conferences, e.g.: Haifa Verification Conference (HVC) 2006, Forum on
Specification & Design Languages (FDL) 2007 and 2010, IEEE Symposium on
Design and Diagnostics of Electronic Circuits and Systems (DDECS) 2010,
IEEE/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design (ICCAD) 2013.
Robert
Wille is Full Professor at the Johannes Kepler University Linz.
This book brings together a selection of the best
papers from the eighteenth edition of the Forum on specification and Design
Languages Conference (FDL), which took place on September 14-16, 2015, in
Barcelona, Spain. FDL is a well-established
international forum devoted to dissemination of research results, practical
experiences and new ideas in the application of specification, design and
verification languages to the design, modeling and verification of integrated
circuits, complex hardware/software embedded systems, and mixed-technology
systems.
Covers Assertion Based Design, Verification &
Debug;
Includes language-based modeling and design
techniques for embedded systems;
Covers design, modeling and verification of mixed
physical domain and mixed signal systems that include significant analog parts
in electrical and non-electrical domains;
Includes formal and semi-formal system level design
methods for complex embedded systems based on the Unified Modelling Language
(UML) and Model Driven Engineering (MDE).
