About

Overview

Professor Audsley joined City from the University of York where he was Head of the Department of Computer Science and served on the University's Council. He holds PhD and BSc degrees from the University of York.

During a successful research career in Real-Time Embedded Systems, he has developed many novel approaches and implementation techniques, including predictable hardware, improved system software and system timing analysis. Specific areas of research include high performance real-time systems and their acceleration on field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs); real-time memory architectures; scheduling, timing analysis and worst-case execution time analysis.

Professor Audsley’s research has been funded by a number of national and European (EU) grants. He has published widely, with more than 170 publications in peer reviewed journals, conferences and books. He has worked with many UK and international companies, both within the context of EU grants, and also directly-funded research.

Professor Audsley joined City as Deputy Dean of the School of Mathematics, Computer Science and Engineering. He also leads the STEM Digital academy, dedicated to supporting digital education. He is a strong advocate of innovation in teaching practices within higher education establishments. He has previously led the successful roll out of multiple online MSc programmes within the field of Computer Science and contributes nationally to advancing the use of blended learning and digital technologies within higher education institutions.
