Biography

Subhasish Mitra is currently a Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Stanford University, Stanford, CA, USA, where he directs the Stanford Robust Systems Group and co-leads the computation focus area of the Stanford SystemX Alliance. He is also a Faculty Member with the Neurosciences Institute, Stanford University. He holds the Carnot Chair of Excellence in Nanosystems at CEA-LETI, Grenoble, France. Before joining the Stanford faculty, he was a Principal Engineer at Intel Corporation, Santa Clara, CA, USA. His current research interests include broadly across robust computing, nanosystems, VLSI design, validation, test, and electronic design automation, and neurosciences. He along with his students and collaborators demonstrated the first carbon nanotube computer and the first 3-D nanosystem with computation immersed in data storage. These demonstrations received widespread recognitions (cover of Nature, Research Highlight to the U.S. Congress by the National Science Foundation, highlight as “important, scientific breakthrough” by the BBC, The Economist, Electronic Engineering Times, IEEE Spectrum, MIT Technology Review, National Public Radio, The New York Times, Scientific American, Time, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, and numerous others worldwide). His earlier work on X-Compact test compression has been a key to cost-effective manufacturing and high-quality testing of almost all electronic systems. X-Compact and its derivatives have been implemented in widely-used commercial electronic design automation tools. He is a Fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and IEEE. He received the Association for Computing Machinery Special Interest Group on Design Automation/IEEE CEDA A. Richard Newton Technical Impact Award in Electronic Design Automation (a test-of-time honor), the Semiconductor Research Corporation's Technical Excellence Award, the Intel Achievement Award (Intel's highest corporate honor), and the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers from the White House (the highest United States honor for early-career outstanding scientists and engineers). He along with his students published several award-winning papers at major venues, including the ACM/IEEE Design Automation Conference, the IEEE International Solid-State Circuits Conference, the ACM/IEEE International Conference on Computer-Aided Design, the IEEE International Test Conference, the IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design, the IEEE VLSI Test Symposium, and the Symposium on VLSI Technology. He was honored several times by graduating seniors for being important to them during their time at Stanford. He has served on the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's Information Science and Technology Board as an Invited Member.

Biography

Prof. Jörg Henkel is with Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Germany, where he is directing the Chair for Embedded Systems CES. Before, he was a Senior Research Staff Member at NEC Laboratories in Princeton, NJ. He received his PhD from Braunschweig University with "Summa cum Laude".

Prof. Henkel has/is organizing various embedded systems and low power ACM/IEEE conferences/symposia as General Chair and Program Chair and was a Guest Editor on these topics in various journals like the IEEE Computer Magazine.

He was Program Chair of CODES'01, RSP'02, ISLPED’06, SIPS'08, CASES'09, Estimedia'11, VLSI Design'12, ICCAD’12, PATMOS’13, NOCS’14 and served as General Chair for CODES'02, ISLPED’09, Estimedia’12, ICCAD’13 and ESWeek'16. He is/has been a steering committee member of major conferences in the embedded systems field like at ICCAD, ESWeek, ISLPED, Codes+ISSS, CASES and is/has been an editorial board member of various journals like the IEEE TVLSI, IEEE TCAD, IEEE TMSCS, ACM TCPS, JOLPE, etc.

In recent years, Prof. Henkel has given more than ten keynotes at various international conferences primarily with focus on embedded systems dependability. He has given full/half-day tutorials at leading conferences like DAC, ICCAD, DATE, etc. Prof. Henkel received the 2008 DATE Best Paper Award, the 2009 IEEE/ACM William J. Mc Calla ICCAD Best Paper Award, the Codes+ISSS 2015, 2014, and 2011 Best Paper Awards, and the MaXentric Technologies AHS 2011 Best Paper Award as well as the DATE 2013 Best IP Award and the DAC 2014 Designer Track Best Poster Award. He is the Chairman of the IEEE Computer Society, Germany Section, and was the Editor-in-Chief of the ACM Transactions on Embedded Computing Systems (ACM TECS) for two consecutive terms.
He is an initiator and the coordinator of the German Research Foundation's (DFG) program on 'Dependable Embedded Systems' (SPP 1500). He is the site coordinator (Karlsruhe site) of the Three-University Collaborative Research Center on "Invasive Computing" (DFG TR89). He is the Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE Design&Test Magazine. He holds ten US patents and is a Fellow of the IEEE.
