I have received the B.S. degree in computer and system engineering from Tallinn University of Technology, Tallinn, Estonia, in 2001, the M.S. degree in automation engineering from Tampere University of Technology, Tampere, Finland, in 2004, and the Dr Tech. degree with the subject of formal methods in factory automation from Tampere Universtiy of Technology in December 2008.

I am an Associate Professor at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology. My research interests include a development of architectures, methodologies, and technologies for knowledge-based engineering and knowledge-driven systems. I was a technical coordinator in the eScop project (video). I am the chair for the open Knowledge-driven Service-oriented System architectures and APIs (KiSS) community group (web).
