Emmanuel Casseau received the Ph.D
Degree in Electronic Engineering from UBO University, Brest, France, in 1994
and the MS Degree in Electrical Engineering in 1990. From 1994 until 1996 he
was a research engineer in ENST Bretagne, a graduate engineering school in
France, where he developed high-speed Viterbi decoder architectures for
turbo-code VLSI implementations. From 1996 until 2006 he was an Associate
Professor in the Electronic Department at the University de Bretagne Sud, Lorient,
France, where he led the IP project of the Lester lab. He is a Professor in Taran team at INRIA/IRISA Lab., ENSSAT graduate engineering school, University of Rennes, Lannion,
France. From August 2016 until July 2017, he was an academic researching
visitor in the Parallel and Reconfigurable
Computing Group, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering,
University of Auckland, New Zealand. He is currently the Head of the Department
of Electronic Engineering (namely Department of “Digital Systems
Engineering”), ENSSAT Engineering
Graduate School, Lannion, France. His research interests include system design,
high-level synthesis, mapping/scheduling techniques, fault-tolerant techniques
and design, reconfigurable architectures and FPGA-based accelerators.
