This postdoctoral project at Eindhoven University of Technology focuses on optimization-driven verification and validation for precision machines such as semiconductor equipment, metrology systems, and advanced manufacturing tools. The aim is to uncover rare but critical “unknown-unsafe” operating scenarios before machines are built, so that high-tech systems can be qualified more efficiently and with greater confidence. You will extend a V&V framework that was originally developed for automated...
