About
Dariusz Makowski received the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees from the Lodz University of Technology in 2001 and 2006, respectively, and the D.Sc. degree in electronics in 2018. He is currently employed as an Associate Professor at Lodz University of Technology.
D.Sc. Dariusz Makowski is conducting pioneering research in development of new complex and scalable hardware as well as software architectures for data acquisition and processing systems. He developed a new methodology for designing data acquisition and control systems that fulfils particular large-scale physics requirements.
The research is conducted in a close collaboration with international research institutions such as: DESY (Germany), ITER (France), ESS (Sweden), KIT i HZDR (Germany), SLAC (USA) and IPP (Germany).
D.Sc. Dariusz Makowski was leading a scientific team at the Department of Microelectronics and Computer Science (DMCS) of the Lodz University of Technology cooperating with DESY scientific research centre in 2008–2011. Since 2010, he has been in charge of cooperating with the ITER organisation, and since 2012 he has been the head of a working group conducting research together with the DESY on control and data acquisition systems. Since 2016, he is a group leader of the team carrying out research together with ESS scientists on the piezoelectric actuators control systems. He is also the creator of the CADAQ (Control and Data Acquisition) control systems and data acquisition laboratory, located in the Department of Microelectronics and Computer Science.
D.Sc. Dariusz Makowski is an author or co-author of more than 244 publications, including 42 articles from Journal Citation Reports database. On top of that, the author has presented over 149 papers at national and international conferences, and has published 28 articles in national and foreign journals. Web of Science Core Collection (WoS) has recorded 126 publications and 658 citations in its database of and the Hirsch h-index is equal 13; Google Scholar 1723, h-index: 21.
The results of the research and hardware solutions are used by the following scientific institutions, i.e.: DESY, ITER, ESS, SLAC, CERN (Switzerland), NRFI (Korea), HZDR, KIT, IHEP (China) and the following companies: Struck, Qualcomm, Creotech Instruments, CAENels, eicSys, Vadatech.
He is also a member of the scientific committees of the following conferences: Real Time Conference (RT), Superconductivity and Particle Accelerators (SPAS), Mixed Design of Integrated Circuits and Systems (MIXDES), MicroTCA Workshop for Industry and Research (MTWIR), Workshop on Longitudinal Diagnostics (WLD) and a reviewer in scientific journals, such as: Transactions on Nuclear Science, Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, Microelectronics Reliability, Fusion Engineering and Design, Neurocomputing, or Nuclear Science and Techniques.
He received the prestigious Prime Minister of Poland award for the best PhD thesis in 2008.
