Edward Lee – Distributed Real-Time Computing

Edward A. Lee is Professor of the Graduate School and Distinguished Professor Emeritus in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences (EECS) at the University of California at Berkeley, where he has been on the faculty since 1986. He is also co-founder of Xronos Inc. and BDTI, Inc. He is the author of seven books, some with several editions and translations, including two for a general audience, and hundreds of papers and technical reports. Lee has delivered hundreds of keynotes and other invited talks at venues worldwide and has graduated 40 PhD students. 

Professor Lee’s research studies cyber-physical systems, which integrate physical dynamics with software and networks. His focus is on the use of deterministic models as a central part of the engineering toolkit for such systems. He is the director of iCyPhy, the Berkeley Industrial Cyber-Physical Systems Research Center. From 2005-2008, he served as Chair of the EE Division and then Chair of the EECS Department at UC Berkeley. He has led the development of several influential open-source software packages, notably Ptolemy and Lingua Franca. 

Lee received his BS degree in 1979 from Yale University, with a double major in Computer Science and Engineering and Applied Science, an SM degree in EECS from MIT in 1981, and a Ph.D. in EECS from UC Berkeley in 1986. From 1979 to 1982 he was a member of technical staff at Bell Labs in Holmdel, New Jersey, in the Advanced Data Communications Laboratory.

Lee is a Fellow of the IEEE, was an NSF Presidential Young Investigator, and won the 1997 Frederick Emmons Terman Award for Engineering Education. He received the 2016 Outstanding Technical Achievement and Leadership Award from the IEEE Technical Committee on Real-Time Systems (TCRTS), the 2018 Berkeley Citation, the 2019 IEEE Technical Committee on Cyber-Physical Systems (TCCPS) Technical Achievement Award, the 2022 European Design and Automation Association (EDAA) Achievement Award, the 2022 ACM SIGBED Technical Achievement Award, an honorary doctorate from the Technical University of Vienna in 2022, the 2023 CASES Test of Time Award for a paper published in 2008 on PRET machines, and the 2024 HiPEAC Technology Transfer Award.

Umut Durak- WebAssembly for Safety-Critical Systems: From Sandbox to Flight Deck

Umut Durak is the Deputy Head of the Safety Critical Systems and Systems Engineering Department in the Institute of Flight Systems at the German Aerospace Center (DLR). He is also a Professor for Aeronautical Informatics in the Informatics Institute at the Clausthal University of Technology.

His research interests concentrate on engineering of software intensive airborne systems. He has published 5 books and more than 100 papers in various conference proceedings and journals. He is an Associate Fellow and the Chair of Software Technical Committee at the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) and an Executive Board Member of the German Simulation Association Arbeitsgemeinschaft Simulation (ASIM).
