Research

My research intersts include energy efficient embedded systems and heterogeneous multi-processor systems, with a focus on multi-media and digital signal processing applications.

I am or have recently been involved in the following major projects and groups:

Low Power and Fault Tolerant Cache Memory Design through a Combination of Hardware and Software Approaches (PALMERA), a European Union Horizon 2020 Marie Sklodowska-Curie Individual Fellowships project (grant agreement No 799481).

Runtime Exploitation of Application Dynamism for Energy-efficient eXascale computing (READEX), a European Union Horizon 2020 research and innovation project (grant agreement No 671657).

Towards Ubiquitous Low-power Image Processing Platforms (Tulipp), a European Union Horizon 2020 innovation project (grant agreement No 688403).

European Network of Excellence on High Performance and Embedded Architecture and Compilation

Energy Efficient Computing Systems (EECS), an inter-department Strategic Research Arena at NTNU.

Special-interest group on ''Scenario Driven Design for Embedded Systems'', a cooperation between several Europen universities.

Much of my research is done in cooperation with Professor Francky Catthoor at imec in Leuven, Belgium.
