Abhik Roychoudhury

Abhik Roychoudhury received his PhD in Computer Science from the State University of New York at Stony Brook in 2000. His research interests are in system modeling and validation with specific focus on embedded systems. Abhik has published widely in premier conferences and journals in software engineering and embedded systems, with over 60 peer-reviewed publications. His research has led to scalable and usable analysis tools for embedded software which enhance software quality as well as programmer productivity. Two meaningful examples of such endeavor are the Chronos static analysis tool for ensuring time-predictable software execution, and the JSlice dynamic analysis tool for software functionality debugging. Such tools have a substantial user-base spread across many different countries and have usage in teaching / development apart from research. Abhik has been the Principal Investigator of many medium and large scale funded projects in Software Engineering and Embedded Systems, including projects from companies like Microsoft. His research has been recognized by various awards including an IBM Faculty Award and a Tan Kah Kee Young Inventor Award (Silver). Since 2001, Abhik has been at the National University of Singapore (NUS), where he is currently an Associate Professor.
