Katalin Popovici received her engineer degree in computer science from the University of Oradea, Romania, in 2004 and her PhD in micro- and nanoelectronics from Grenoble Institute of Technology, France, in 2008. Between 2005 and 2008, she was a member of the SHAPES (Scalable Software Hardware Computing Architecture Platform for Embedded Systems) European research project, where she worked on hardware–software codesign. Currently, she is a senior software engineer at MathWorks in Natick, Massachusetts, where she works on partitioning and mapping capabilities from Simulink^® models to embedded and real-time systems, with focus on code generation for multicore and heterogeneous architectures.

Dr. Popovici’s research interests include system-level modeling and design of multiprocessor system-on-chip, programming models, and code generation for embedded applications. She often serves on international technical program committees and gives lectures on hardware–software codesign.

Pieter J. Mosterman is a senior research scientist at MathWorks in Natick, Massachusetts, where he works on computational modeling, simulation, and code generation technologies. He also holds an adjunct professor position in the School of Computer Science at McGill University. Prior to this, he was a research associate at the German Aerospace Center (DLR) in Oberpfaffenhofen. He received his PhD in electrical and computer engineering from Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee, and his MSc in electrical engineering from the University of Twente, the Netherlands. His primary research interests include computer-automated multiparadigm modeling (CAMPaM) with principal applications in design automation, training systems, and fault detection, isolation, and reconfiguration.

Dr. Mosterman designed the electronics laboratory simulator that was nominated for The Computerworld Smithsonian Award by Microsoft Corporation in 1994. In 2003, he was awarded the IMechE Donald Julius Groen Prize for his paper on the hybrid bond graph modeling and simulation environment HyBrSim. In 2009, he received the Distinguished Service Award of The Society for Modeling and Simulation International (SCS) for his services as the editor-in-chief of SIMULATION: Transactions of SCS. Dr. Mosterman was a guest editor for special issues on CAMPaM of SIMULATION, IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology, and ACM Transactions on Modeling and Computer Simulation. He has chaired over 30 scientific events, has served on over 80 international program committees, has published over a 100 peer-reviewed papers, and is an inventor with over 30 awarded patents.
