Biographical Sketch
John A. Stankovic received his Ph.D. from Brown University and then served on the faculty of University of Massachusetts at Amherst. He came to UVa as BP America Professor and Chair of the Department of Computer Science in 1997. Professor Stankovic is a Fellow of the IEEE, a Fellow of the ACM, and he served on the Computing Research Association Board of Directors for nine years. He received an IEEE Award for Outstanding Technical Contributions and Leadership in Real-Time Systems, and an Outstanding Scholar Award from the University of Massachusetts. He also received a Distinguished Faculty award from the School of Engineering at the University of Virginia. He was Co-Founder and Co-Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal on Real-Time Systems, Editor-in-Chief of IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Computing, Associate Editor for ACM Transactions on Wireless Sensor Networks, Associate Editor for ACM Transactions on Embedded Systems, and Book Series Editor for Real-Time Systems. He has won 4 Best Paper awards.
Research
Stankovic's primary research interests are in the areas of real-time computing, cyber physical systems, ad hoc wireless sensor networks, and wireless health. He is investigating various approaches to real-time scheduling, including the development of a theory and practice of feedback control real-time scheduling. He is also involved with many research projects in wireless sensor networks (WSN). He is applying WSN to wireless health and saving energy in both residential and commercial buildings.
