David Marson

David Marson is a Researcher at the Chair of Software & Systems Engineering (Prof. Pretschner) at the Technical University of Munich since September 2022. He holds a Master's in Aerospace Engineering and has industry experience as a systems engineer. His research focuses on cyber-physical systems (CPS), modeling and simulation (M&S), scenario-based testing, and drone swarm controllers, particularly in generating test cases for cooperating UAVs.

Teaching: He contributes to courses such as Systems Engineering (IN8015) and Scenario-Based Testing of Cyber-Physical Systems. He oversees thesis projects in UAV swarm robustness, search-based testing, and autonomous systems quality attributes.

• Key Projects: INVOLVED IN RESEARCH INITIATIVES LIKE SUPPRA (Algorand Center of Excellence), TAPFER, AND SCENARIO-BASED TESTING METHODS.

Advising: Supervised theses include Inaccuracies in UAV Awareness (Bachelor's), Development of Robust UAV Route Planners (Master's), and Testing Collaborative UAV Safety (Bachelor's). Ongoing projects focus on swarm controller robustness and component failure scenarios.

Labs/Teams: Active in CPS testing and UAV swarm research within the Chair's collaborative environment.
