Dr Artur Boronat

Artur is an associate professor at the School of Computing and Mathematical Sciences of the University of Leicester (UK). He obtained his BSc degree in Computer Science in 2002 (Ingeniero en Informática) with an award from Bancaixa/Bancaja for the final year project on data migration. He wrote his Master thesis DEA in 2004 and obtained his Ph.D. degree in Computer Science in 2007 (Doctor Cum Laude) from the Technical University of València (UPV). He has been a visiting researcher at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC USA) and at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC Spain). In 2007 he joined the University of Leicester (UK) as lecturer.

Artur's research interests revolve around: agile software development for the cloud using JVM technology and applications in healthcare and industry 4.0; design and implementation of DSLs using model-driven software development and type theory; application of AI technology and formal methods in the intersection of the two areas above.

Artur has secured funding from Innovate UK for developing manufacturing software infrastructure in the food industry (2018-2019). He is the principal investigator of the Informatics team in the ESA-funded project Personalised Space Technology Exercise Platform (P-STEP) (2021-2023).

He is a founding member of the EPSRC-funded MDENet: the expert network for Model-Driven Engineering.
