Borislav was born in 1982 in Leskovac, Serbia. He got a Degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Belgrade, Serbia in 2007. After that, he spent almost two years in industry developing large-scale enterprise applications. In 2010 Borislav became a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Porto, and he defended his thesis in 2015. His main research interest is in the real-time analysis of NoC-based many-core platforms. Borislav is an amateur road cyclist and a big fan of FC Red Star Belgrade.
