Dr. Robert Davis is a Reader at the Real-Time Systems Research Group within the Department of Computer Science at the University of York, UK. He is renowned for his work in real-time embedded systems, particularly in scheduling theory and its applications to mixed-criticality and multi-core platforms. Current role: Reader, University of York Research group: Real-Time Systems Research Group Contact: Department of Computer Science, University of York, Deramore Lane, York YO10 5GH, UK Education DPhil in Computer Science, University of York (1995) Research Interests include real-time scheduling, mixed-criticality systems, cache-related preemption delays (CRPD), probabilistic real-time systems, and scheduling IDK classifiers. His work addresses the integration of schedulability analysis with worst-case execution time (WCET) analysis, focusing on systems with single-core, multi-core, and networked architectures. Article Trends show a focus on IDK classifiers, mixed-criticality systems, and multi-core schedulability. His recent work explores probabilistic timing, adaptive scheduling, and industry-driven real-time practices, often bridging theoretical analysis with industrial applications (e.g., automotive, avionics). Scientific Awards Outstanding paper at RTNS 2016, RTNS 2015, ECRTS 2015 Best paper at RTNS 2014, ECRTS 2011, RTCSA 2013 Influential paper award at RTNS 2017 Advising and Grants involve collaborations on European projects like HI-CLASS and MCC, and he has received funding from EPSRC and Inria International Chair. He co-founded three spin-out companies for technology transfer. Labs and Teams include the Real-Time Systems Research Group at York and collaborations with international institutions (e.g., Inria, France; NJIT, USA).
