CURRENT PROJECTS
- SAFER
- Safety Verification for Robotic Software, a COMPETE2020 project that aims to develop techniques to promote the verification of safety critical properties for robotic software controllers.
- TRUST
- Trustworthy Software Design with Alloy, a COMPETE2020 project that aims to develop a methodology for trustworthy software design that is both formal, unified, and lightweight around Alloy.
- VORTEX
- Collaborative Laboratory on Cyber Physical Systems and Cyber Security, aiming to create skilled jobs and economic and social value, by promoting employment through the development of knowledge-based activities.
PAST PROJECTS
- PTCRIS
- An ORCID-based Synchronization Framework for the Portuguese CRIS, a project commissioned by FCT that aims to develop a synchronization framework for information exchange between the various national systems and international systems.
- InteGrid
- Demonstration of INTElligent grid technologies for renewables INTEgration and INTEractive consumer participation enabling INTEroperable market solutions and INTErconnected stakeholders, an H2020 project that aims develop innovative solutions of smart grids.
- NanoSTIMA RL1.3
- High-Assurance Medical Cyber-physical Systems, a NORTE2020 project that aims to contribute to safer medical cyber-physical systems through the development of such design and analysis techniques.
- FATBIT
- Foundations, Applications and Tools for Bidirectional Transformation, a COMPETE project that aimed to propose effective bidirectional transformation frameworks for model-driven engineering, spreadsheet validation and transformation, and language-based editors defined with attribute grammars.
- BEST CASE RL8
- Languages and Tools for Critical Real-Time Systems, an ON.2 project that aimed to contribute to a change to the current paradigm of secure ITC infrastructure, according to which the deployment and operation of a critical system implies security enforcement as a reactive process.
