Dipl. -Ing. Alexander Tyapkov, M.Sc.
In general I am interested in topics of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) as the creation of user interfaces, the development of novel interaction techniques, their implementation and evaluation. In the working group I am concentrating on the development of a user-friendly debugging interface.

Dr. Daniel Große
My Publications My research interest is formal verification of circuits. The goal of formal
verification is to prove the correctness of circuits (in contrast to simulation
based approaches whose limitations were highlighted e.g. by the Pentium Bug).
Especially, I examine how information of high-level descriptions can be used
effectively in the formal verification process. Thereby the system description
language SystemC plays an important role.

Dr. André Sülflow
My Publications The focus of my research is automation in debugging and diagnosis of reliable systems. Formal verification and semi-formal methods are studied in this area.
|
 |
Dipl.-Inf. Alexander Finder
My Publications Until now I was interested in heuristic and exact optimization procedures in logic synthesis. Actually my research interests are focused on analyzing and debugging of circuits.
|
 |
Dipl.-Inf. Stefan Frehse
My Publications My research is about robustness check of digital circuits with use of formal methods. The features sizes in VLSI circuits shrinking continuously. Thus, circuits becoming more and more vulnerable against transient faults. The currently developed methods of robustness verification have to be improved for real-world applications.

Dipl.-Inf. Finn Haedicke
My Publications In my work I integrate contextual knowledge into system-level verification. This is done by using and extending word-level solvers and combining them with current verification approaches.
|
 |
Jannis Stoppe, M.Sc.
My Publications The main focus of my research activities is the analysis of description languages for hardware/software design. Major questions are how such hybrid systems can be visualized and what technical prerequisites need to be satisfied for this purpose.

Dipl.-Kfm. Jan Wessels
My activities enclose the general support in business and managerial issues. Within these activities I focus on entrepreneurship and marketing.
|
 |
Dr. Beate Kapturek
My Publications My main focus lies on the one hand in research and there specially in the technical documentation and formal specification from circuits and systems on the other hand in care of courses and seminars in basic and main studies.
|
 |
Dr. Hongyan Zhang
My Publications My main focus lies in the research of „testing for reversible circuits“. In particular, I am working on ATPG for reversible circuits.
|
 |
Dipl.-Inf. Oliver Bösche
My scope is the timing analysis of digital circuits with the focus on the efficient identification of false paths or the generation of stimuli for specific paths, respectively.
In particular, I investigate and develop approaches based on formal methods. These methods promise a high degree of robustness which is very important for practical use.

Dipl.-Inf. Christian Genz
My Publications My role in the the work-group is about developing techniques for design-space exploration and visualization. These techniques are priory used in hardware-software co-design, to develop integrated environments which optimize the VLSI-CAD.
|

Dr. Daniel Tille
My Publications In the past, my research interest has been SAT-Solving. Now, at the group of computer architecture, I mainly focus on Automatic Test Pattern Generation. Goal is to combine these two techniques.
|
 |
Jean Christoph Jung, M.Sc.
My Publications My research interest is the application of constraint programming techniques, such as arc-consistency, in the area of SMT-solving. In particular, I am trying to combine bit vector logic with the SAT problem.
|

Dr. Sebastian Kinder
My Publications During my studies of Computer Science I did researches on binary decision diagrams. Nowadays I am working in the area of formal verification and validation.
|
 |
Dipl.-Inf. Marc Messing
My Publications My main interests are in full search space exploration with techniques known from circuit design, using word level information for circuit verification and fault ordering heuristics for ATPG.
|
 |
Dr. Frank Rogin
My Publications I work at the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits, Division Design Automation and strengthen the group from Dresden. My interests mainly lie, faithfully the slogan of the Fraunhofer Gesellschaft, in the application oriented research. Here some must be done in order to successfully use theoretical procedures and experimental methods in industrial practice. In this field I deal with static and dynamic analysis to assure the quality of circuits as well as to support formal verification.

Tanja Rethemeyer
I am since February 2006 a secretary in the AG computer architecture. To my tasks organizational and administrative technical activities belong.

Dr. Cecile Braunstein
I am a almost-one year postdoctoral researcher.
My research interest is in the application of formal methods for the
verification of SoC. More
precisely, I study the link between a model, its design and its specification.
My works aim at alleviating the model checking for a given component.
On the other hand, I work on an abstraction
method that builds a component abstraction directly from its specification. This
research plans to verify a composed component in the framework of
the counter-example guided abstraction refinement (CEGAR).

Dr. Sujan Pandey
My Publications My primary research interests are in the area of on-chip bus architecture synthesis, synthesis for robustness, and low power design. The main aim is to develop algorithms, which address the future SoC design challenges.
|
 |
Dr. Junhao Shi
My Publications With increasing complexity of VLSI circuits, the costs for the test phase have risen dramatically. So testability issues have to be considered from the very beginning of the design process to control the test costs and to guarantee the testability of the circuit at the end of the manufacturing process.
|
 |
Dr. Rüdiger Ebendt
My Publications In the past, my research interests focussed on the development of efficient algorithms and data structures for logic synthesis and simulation-based verification of circuits and systems. I think that there is still much work to do, as the problems arising here often are real "brainteasers". For the future, I plan to consider evolutionary (i.e., genetic) algorithms or search methods as known from Artificial Intelligence.

Dipl. Msc. Doina Logofatu
My Publications In the group I working on solving of
SAT-problems and their applications in praxis.
I am especially interested in the classes maxSAT and
max weighted SAT.
|
 |
Dr. Mario Hilgemeier
My Publications I'm mostly concerned with the development of evolutionary algorithms, especially for electronic circuit design.
Learning and working together to find better solutions for hard problems is fun.
Before I had this dream job, some time went into my now rather neglected private home page.
