Biography
Dr Hoang Nga Nguyen is a Research Fellow in Cybersecurity and Cyber-Physical Systems. His research is in the area of Formal Methods. His work focuses on modelling and verifying qualitative, quantitative and secure/safe properties. In the last two years, he has been in several research projects. In particular, ACID aimed at developing methods detecting collusion of Android applications. These methods are based on machine learning and model checking. Another example is Ditto, investigating how to model railway systems for measuring capacity. His active research agenda also includes cybersecurity in automotive and autonomous systems.
Before, Dr Nguyen worked at the University of Nottingham and Swansea University. During this time, he involved in a couple of EPSRC-funded projects. Both involved developing methods, abstraction techniques and formal tool support. The first, VRBMAS, is for verifying resource-bounded autonomous systems. The second, SafeCap, is for large-scale railway systems.
Currently, he is an associate member of the Verification & Validation of Autonomous Systems network. He is also a member of European Technical Working Group on Formal Methods in Railway Control.
He has been on the PC of several international conferences and workshops. He also provides reviews for several journals. Dr Nguyen has over 40 publications.

Vision Statement
My research interest is in the area of Software Engineering, with focus on Formal Methods. Computer systems are integrated into every aspect of modern life. Example are embedded controllers in automotive systems, railway, and medical devices. Yet, any security or safety error could lead to catastrophes. Thus, it becomes more and more crucial to detect and remove any mistake as soon as possible. My recent work is concentrating on developing model-based techniques. They facilitate the verification of security and safety requirements. Their current applications are in the transport domain and multi-agent systems.
