Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNicolas Hili is an assistant professor and research engineer with 11+ years of experience at the intersection of model-driven engineering, real-time embedded systems, and human-computer interaction. He holds an engineering degree and a PhD from Grenoble, and his work spans formalizing end-to-end methods for embedded design, run-time observability and animation, and new semantics for statechart models. Nicolas has moved between academia and industry—contributing tools and prototypes integrated into open modeling platforms like Papyrus-RT and applied projects such as SensNact and RISC-V processor design—bridging theoretical rigor with practical tooling. His research emphasis on run-time analyses and debugging under physical stressors distinguishes him from typical modeling specialists. He has collaborated with industrial partners (Ericsson, Atos) and led multidisciplinary efforts on adaptive user interfaces and safety-critical systems. Based in Grenoble, he combines deep formal-methods expertise with hands-on development of modeling environments and embedded prototypes.
