Martin Törngren is Professor in Embedded Control Systems at the Mechatronics division of the KTH Department of Machine Design since 2002. He has particular interest in Cyber-Physical Systems, architectural design, system safety, systems integration, model based engineering, and co-design of control applications and embedded systems. He has authored/co-authored more than 100 peer reviewed publications, and also been in charge of developing and leading graduate and continued education courses and master programs. He spent time as a post-doc at the EU-JRC, did a 10 month sabbatical 2011/12 at UC Berkeley, and a 2 month sabbatical in the spring 2018 at Stevens Institute of Technology.
In 1996 he co-founded the company Fengco Real-time Control AB, specializing in advanced tools for developers of embedded control systems and related consultancy. In 1994 he received the SAAB-Scania award for qualified contributions in distributed control systems, and in 2004 the ITEA achievement award 2004 for contributions in the EAST-EEA project. He served as the technical coordinator of the international iFEST ARTEMIS project with 21 partners (2010-2013).
Networking and multidisciplinary research have been characteristic throughout his career. From 1999-2004 he served as the Chairman of the Swedish real-time systems association, and he has represented KTH as a core partner in the EU networks of excellence in Embedded systems design, Artist2 and ArtistDesign, and in the Artemis industrial association. He is moreover the principal initiator and Director of the Center for Trustworthy Edge Computing Systems and Applications.

Connectivity and digital infrastructures promise to promote road traffic safety and performance – in particular by closing the so called “information gap” to improve the safety/performance balance and assisting in monitoring emerging traffic behaviors. Despite efforts made, however, the involved stakeholders have not been able to reap synergies for collaborative traffic systems. The remaining challenges for large scale deployment of automated vehicles in complex ODDs and the simultaneous advancements in digitalization, have given rise to a renewed interest in connectivity and collaboration. This talk will provide insights from an investigation of key barriers and important directions towards solutions for collaborative systems as formed by connected automated vehicles and a supporting cyber-physical infrastructure. The audience will learn about:
