Raimund Kirner

Raimund Kirner is an academic at the Institute of Computer Engineering (E191-01) at Technische Universität Wien, specializing in real-time and embedded systems. His career spans research in Worst-Case Execution Time (WCET) Analysis, Time-Triggered Communication, and Automated Testing for safety-critical systems. He has contributed to projects such as ALL-TIMES, COSTA, and HINT, focusing on timing predictability and composability in real-time systems.

• Key Research Areas: WCET Analysis, Real-Time Systems, Embedded Testing, Time-Predictable Computing
• Notable Collaborations: Peter Puschner, Andreas Prantl, Martina Zolda

Recent Publications analyze cybersecurity in automotive networks, quantitative interface evaluation for time-triggered systems, and synchronization trade-offs. His work bridges theoretical timing models with practical compiler and hardware solutions for deterministic execution.

Awards: Recipient of the Mobilitätsstipendium der Creditanstalt AG (2003) for outstanding dissertation.

Advising includes supervising 11 theses from 2002–2014 on topics like Automated Load Balancing, WCET Estimation, and Compiler Timing Models.
