Prof. Paul Pop
About
Since 2016, I am a professor at DTU Compute (Department of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science at the Technical University of Denmark, DTU). I have joined DTU in 2006 as an associate professor. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Systems from Linköping University in 2003 and my Master’s in Computer Science in 1997 from the Technical University of Timisoara, Romania.
Research interests
I do research on methods and tools for systems engineering. I work in the general area of cyber-physical systems, with a focus on Industrial Internet of Things, safety-critical real-time systems and edge computing. You can see my current and past projects here and on the IoT Center website.
