Dipl.-Inform. Andreas Polzer

I am a researcher at the chair of Embedded Software (RWTH Aachen University) since January 2006. In the first time I worked on a project called ZAMOMO. Within the project my interest was focused non-functional requirements and their integration into the model-based development process of Embedded Systems.

This work is the foundation for my current research on variable embedded systems. To this end a system is variable (for me) if one implementation provides a family of somehow different systems.

To manage this complexity I use the Eclipse Modelling Framework and different development fragments. These fragments (like Simulink models, XML configuration) are transformed in the Eclipse world. With methods like transformation, model combination and, analysis of the models I try manage the variability and handle the complexity.

Within the my research I work on different topics which are also accessible for students. Therefore feel free to write me an Email if you are interested in writing a thesis.
