Georgios Voulgarakis

The main responsibilities, during my fellowship with CERN, as a Control Systems & Automations Engineer included:

• Analyze & assist in existing BE-ABP/BE-OP operating procedures.
• Project & team lead, design & implement software able to simplify & automate them.
• Design & development of Inspector framework, to allow for rapid design of operator user interfaces (frontend).
• Design & development of Services framework, providing the tools and an environment enabling rapid, flexible, centralized implementation & real-time execution of algorithms, along with analyzing, processing & logging utilities (backend).
• Design & implementation -using Inspector & Services- of Autopilot, a collection of real-time algorithms aiming to automatically optimize the operation of Linac4 H- Ion Source, derive performance indicators, identify log & recover component failures.
• Team/ project lead, design & implementation of ERIS (Emittance Reconstruction Integrated Software), simplifying the process of the Linac3 beam characterization, through real-time measurement logging, analyzing & post-processing
• Member of the LOC (Local Organizing Committee) for the ICIS-2017 (International Conference on Ion Sources), reponsible for website design, implementation & maintenance.

Technologies used:
Java 8, Spring (Boot, MVC), JPA (HIbernate), RxJava, SQL, JMS, RMI, Rest, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Swing, SVN, JUnit, eclipse, SVN, git, XML, JSON, yaml

During a 6 month internship, an embedded system for Car2Car communication has been developed, involving the following tasks:

• Design & implement the software/logic backbone for the Car2Car message exchange communication, using the dSPACE Autobox (rti1005) platform.
• Handle connectivity between vehicle CANbus and Autobox platform.
• Implementation of the Static Vehicle Warning Model, notifying the driver regarding stranded vehicles.
• Implementation of the Emergency Braking Warning Model, ensuring prompt notification and reaction, when other vehicles within an area of interest are braking hard.

Technologies used:
Embedded & real-time design, C, Simulink, MATLAB, python, CANbus, dSPACE
