Sergio Ruocco - Researcher
Trustworthy Embedded Systems Project
Research Interests
Dr Ruocco's research interests include the analysis, design, and implementation of object-oriented software architectures of concurrent, distributed, time-sensitive systems (including hard real-time and Quality of Service-aware systems). He is also interested in researching novel approaches to low-level, embedded system software development. Other interests include principles and design of programming languages and their interactions with run-time support; operating systems; compilers and processor architectures; and computer and processor architecture.
Career Summary
Prior to joining NICTA, Dr Ruocco consulted as a project leader and a senior software engineer, leading technology transfer projects between academia and industry. This included the design and implementation of a Linux device driver for custom embedded real-time video acquisition and a compression board for an international security and surveillance company.
Qualifications
Dr Ruocco received his Masters degree cum Laude in Computer Science in 1999, and his PhD in Computer Science in February 2004, both from the Universita' degli Studi di Milano, Italy.
