Recently he was elected to the Board of Governors of the IEEE Computer Society.
Prof. Yosi Ben-Asher received his PhD degree in Computer Science from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He is a professor at Computer Science Department, University of Haifa. He is currently leading several research projects including: P2NC a system to study probabilistic evaluation of Boolean circuits, a high-level synthesis compiler from C to Verilog with optimized memory layout, a silicon compiler that minimizes wire lengths, 1 K multicore chip and an ASIP compiler/CPU based on graph tiling. His research areas include compilers, EDA, parallel programming, ad-hoc networks and reconfigurable networks.
Prof. Anupam Chattopadhyay received his B.E. degree from Jadavpur University, India in 2000. He received his MSc from ALaRI, Switzerland and PhD from RWTH Aachen, Germany in 2002 and 2008 respectively. From 2008 to 2009, he worked as a member of consulting staff at CoWare R&D, Noida, India. From 2010 to 2014, he led the MPSoC Architectures Research Group at RWTH Aachen, as a junior professor. Since September 2014, he has been an Assistant Professor at SCE, NTU.During his PhD, he worked on automatic RTL generation from the architecture description language LISA, which was later commercialized by a leading EDA vendor. He developed several high-level optimizations and verification flows for embedded processors. In his doctoral thesis, he proposed a language-based modeling, exploration and implementation framework for partially re-configurable processors. Together with his doctoral students, Anupam proposed domain-specific, high-level synthesis for cryptography, high-level reliability estimation flows for embedded processors, generalisation of classic linear algebra kernels and a novel multi-layered coarse-grained reconfigurable architecture. In these areas, he has published as a (co)-author over 100 conference/ journal papers, several book chapters and a book. Anupam has served on various TPCs of top conferences, regularly reviews journal/conference articles and presented multiple invited seminars/tutorials at prestigious venues. He is a member of ACM and a senior member of IEEE.Anupam received Borcher's plaque from RWTH Aachen for his outstanding doctoral dissertation in 2008 and nomination for best IP award in DATE 2016.
