I am a Senior Engineer at Qualcomm Multimedia R&D team. I received my BS and MS degrees from the Department of Computer Engineering at Sharif University of Technology under the supervision of Prof Hossein Asadi in 2013 and 2016, and my PhD from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at UC San Diego in 2022. I was with the Embedded Systems lab (CES) at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in the summers of 2014 and 2015 as a research intern, working with Prof Jörg Henkel and Prof Hussam Amrouch. I have a broad research interest in developing domain-specific accelerators, spanning from FPGA prototyping and ASIC design to leveraging unorthodox computing approaches, with a slant toward trade-offs for energy efficiency.
