Research
My main area of research is the modeling of semiconductor devices, where I study the effects of intrinsic parameter variability
on the characteristics of future generation CMOS. While my main study is bulk CMOS devices I have also lloked at variability in
Dynamic RAM and Non-Volatile RAM.
A large part of my responsabilities is the development of numerical simulation codes and so my interests extend into parallel computing, distributed and concurrent programming. I have completed a Intel Paralle Faculty Training course to further my knowledge in this field. I am also interested in as well as VLSI design, embedded and real-time systems.
I have also become interesting in using functional programming techniques to reduce the complexity involved in designing concurrent programs as well introducing these into the embedded world to produce highly fault tolerant and distributed networks of devices.
