NSERC/ Magna Industrial Research Chair, Automotive Software | Professor, Electrical and Computer Engineering

Dr. Fischmeister is a Professor at the University of Waterloo, leads the Real-time Embedded Software Group, and is NSERC/Magna Industrial Research Chair for Automotive Software. 

Dr. Fischmeister performs systems research at the intersection of software technology, distributed systems, and formal methods. His preferred application area is safety-critical embedded real-time systems. Jointly with industry and researchers, he built the APMA Connected Vehicle Technology Demonstrator as well as several CES demos, including the Renesas Autonomous Vehicle as well as the DENSO Driving AI demonstrator. He is now working on physics-based cybersecurity addressing safety and security of mission-critical systems such as aerospace, automotive, and nuclear. 

Graduate Supervision: (if applicable) 

Dr. Fischmeister trains highly-qualified personnel on theory, methods, and tools for designing, analyzing, and building safe and secure mission-critical systems. Due to the cross-cutting nature of his work and the demands of mission-critical systems, his research program accepts and trains students from various backgrounds, with past students from mechatronics, computer engineering, software, computer science,
