Acerca del autor:

Maxime Pelcat is an associate professor at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the National Institute of Applied Sciences (INSA) in Rennes. He holds a joint appointment in the Institute of Electronics and Telecommunications of Rennes (IETR), a CNRS research unit. Maxime Pelcat obtained his Ph.D. in signal processing from INSA in 2010. The Ph.D. thesis resulted from a collaboration of INSA Rennes and Texas Instruments, Nice, and followed a contract as research engineer. Previously, after one year in the Audio and Multimedia department at Fraunhofer-Institute IIS in Erlangen, Germany, he worked as a contractor at France Telecom Research and Development until 2006. His main research interests include dataflow models, multimedia and telecommunication processing, and programming of distributed embedded systems.

Dr. Slaheddine Aridhi is a Senior Wireless Systems Engineer in the Communications Infrastructure laboratory at Texas Instruments –France. Slaheddine Aridhi, Ph.D., is a technical expert in emerging applications for communications infrastructure. In his role as senior wireless systems engineer at Texas Instruments France (TIF), Dr. Aridhi is driving solution analyses for LTE and other emerging applications (e.g. small cells, backhaul,...) in addition to actively participating in the architecture definition of next generation devices. His efforts have enabled TI to take leadership positions in these evolving standard/proprietary applications. In his 17 years in the industry, Dr. Aridhi has gained extensive experience in wireless/digital communications research and development for digital communications, IP data networking, and wireless systems applications. Dr. Aridhi is also co-supervising a Ph.D. thesis on rapid prototyping and code generation for complex applications in collaboration with the INSA Rennes, France. Dr. Aridhi obtained his Ph.D. in wireless telecommunications from the INRS (Institut National de Recherche Scientifique) in Montreal, Canada. He also holds M.S. and B.S. degrees in Digital Communications and Electrical Engineering respectively from the University Laval in Quebec City, Canada.

Jonathan Piat is an associate professor at the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Paul Sabatier University of Toulouse (France). He holds a joint appointment in the Laboratory for Analysis and Architecture of Systems, a CNRS research unit. Dr Piat obtained his Phd thesis in electronic and signal processing from the INSA of Rennes in 2010. His work dealt with loop partitioning for dataflow models to target multi-core architectures with signal processing applications. He is now working on the integration of robotics algorithms on FPGA-based dedicated hardware. His main research interests include dataflow-models, hardware/software co-design, embedded vision processing and robotics.
