Research Interest


As new technologies emerge, Cyber-Physical Systems like the medical devices are becoming more powerful in terms of functionality. The complexity of their software is increasing, so does the chance of safety-issues. My research focuses on incorporating formal methods and testing techniques to ensure the safety of software in safety-critical systems like medical devices. Currently I’m working on Validation & Verification of medical device software with specialty in Implantable Cardiac Devices like implantable pacemaker. The details of my research are listed below:

  • Medical Device V & V

    • Pacemaker Verification
    • Penn Virtual Heart Model
    • Multi-level model translation
    • Heart On a Chip (HOC)
  • Case Studies
  • Media & Presentations
  • Downloads
