    I have one research assistant position open for a Ph.D. student with solid circuit/algorithm background.
   

I received my B.S. and M.S. degrees in Electrical Engineering at Fudan University in 1993 and 1996, and my Ph.D. degree in Computer Science at the University of California San Diego in 2003, respectively. I worked with several industry companies (China IC Design Center, Conexant Systems, Incentia Design Systems, Cadence Design Systems, BlazeDFM, and Tabula), and held a post-doctoral research associate position at the University of California San Diego, before joining the ECE department at UTSA in 2008. I have published over fourty journal articles and conference papers, received a Best Paper Award at International Conference on Computer Design in 2005, a Best Research Award at University of California San Diego Research Review in 2000, and have served as co-chair for the Emerging Design Technologies (EDT) subcommittee at International Symposium of Quality Electronic Design (ISQED) since 2006,

My research area is VLSI design. This is a dynamic area. As we are approaching the end of silicon based technology era, research efforts are especially diversified towards the next generation (i.e., nanometer-scale) VLSI systems. I am working on variability and reliability analysis, robust (redundant, adaptive and resilient), high performance and low power design, nanoelectronic architecture exploration and other emerging design techniques.
