Janos Sztipanovits is currently the E. Bronson Ingram Distinguished Professor of Engineering and professor of Electrical Engineering, Computer Science and Computer Engineering at Vanderbilt University. He is founding director of the Institute for Software Integrated Systems (ISIS) at Vanderbilt University. Between 1999 and 2002, he worked as program manager and acting deputy director of DARPA Information Technology Office. During his tenure at DARPA, he established and directed research programs in embedded software design (Model-Based Integration of Embedded Software, MoBIES) and networked embedded systems (Networked Embedded Systems Technology, NEST). Currently, he is member of the US Air Force Science Advisory Board. His research areas are at the intersection of systems and computer science and engineering. His current research interest is the foundation and applications of Model-Integrated Computing, an emerging model-based design technology for distributed embedded software, which is used in a wide range of defense and commercial systems. His other research contributions include structurally adaptive systems, autonomous systems, design space exploration and systems-security co-design technology. He has co-authored two books and over 200 papers.
