Latest Patents

One of Sohns’s latest inventions is a method for testing a product, including software, hardware, or a combination of both. The method simulates the product based on input parameters and tests a particular property. It compares the simulation’s result with a requirement to produce a first classification, then compares reference data from an alternative test with the same requirement to determine a second classification. These classifications are used to assess the simulation’s accuracy or robustness.

Another invention concerns a method and device for testing a technical system through simulation. Tests are evaluated against a quantitative requirement and different simulation error measures. Each test is classified as a reliable or unreliable case based on its fulfillment measure and error measures. The number of tests classified as reliable then informs the selection of an error measure.

Career Highlights

Sohns’s professional experience includes work with Robert Bosch and GS Yuasa International Ltd. His patent portfolio reflects an emphasis on evaluating simulations and assessing how reliably they represent products and technical systems.
