Curriculum Vitae
Prof. Dr. Theo Ungerer, retired since April 1, 2020, was a Full Professor of Computer Science at the University of Augsburg, Germany, Head of the Chair of Systems and Networking. Prior to his appointment to University of Augsburg, he was a professor at the Computer Science Department of Technical University of Karlsruhe, now KIT. Prof. Ungerer is a founding member of the EC network of excellence HiPEAC (High Performance Embedded Architectures and Compilers). He served on the Editorial Boards of the International Journal of Parallel Programming (IJPP), the Journal of Personal and Ubiquitous Computing (PUC) and in the Steering Committees of the ARCS conference and the Autonomic and Trusted Computing (ATC) conference series. He was Program Chair of ARCS 2003 and HiPEAC 2012, General Chair of ARCS 2004, 2008 and ATC 2006, Publications Chair of HiPEAC 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2011 conferences, and served in many Program Committees.
Prof. Ungerer has been investigating embedded processor architecture concepts with respect to WCET analysability for deployment in hard real-time embedded systems for many years. The Komodo project (funded by the German Science Foundation and finished 2003) developed a single issue multithreaded real-time Java processor together with real-time capable JVM and system software). The CAR-SoC project support (funded by the German Science Foundation 2005-2010) developed an SMT embedded single-core processor and real-time system-level software for autonomic/organic computing, followed by several projects funded by the German Science Foundation targeting time predictable multi-cores, parallelization, and system-level software as well as reliability and safety issues.
A further line of research concerned Organic Computing, a German initiative to control complex IT systems by self-organisation techniques. His Organic Computing Middleware project was funded by the German Science Foundation as part of a priority program DFG-SPP 1183 (2005-2013) and the Trust-based Middleware research project TEM was funded by the German Science Foundation as part of the research group OC-TRUST (2009-2016).
With respect to European Community research, Prof. Ungerer was coordinator of the EC FP-7 ICT projects MERASA and parMERASA. Moreover, he was involved in the Artemis project ACROSS, the FET TERAFLUX project and received funding of Intel Corporation for "Executing Parallel Safety-Critical Applications on COTS Processors by Exploiting Hardware Transactional Memory" targeting Haswell-style processors. Lastly, he coordinated the Vision efforts within the EC CSAs EuroLab4HPC (Sept. 2015-August 2017) and EuroLab4HPC-2 (May 2018-April 2020) resulting in the “Eurolab4HPC Long-Term Vision on High-Performance Computing”, see: https://www.eurolab4hpc.eu/vision/ .
Following his retirement, Prof. Ungerer still manages the two ongoing German Science Foundation projects “Design of Hardware Transactional Memory for Usage in Embedded Systems” (started 2016) and “ARoMA – Adaptive Redundancy for Many-Core Architectures” (started 2017) together with his successor, Prof. Altmeyer.
Retirement allows to start with something totally new. Such a new project effort concerns “Artificial Intelligence Support for Archeological 3D-Reconstructions”, starting 2020 with a 4 years runtime.
