Samarjit Chakraborty is a Professor of Electrical Engineering at TU Munich, where he heads the Institute for Real-Time Computer Systems (RCS). Prior to joining TU Munich, from 2003 – 2008 he was an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at the National University of Singapore. He obtained his Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from ETH Zurich in 2003. His research interests are primarily in system-level power/performance analysis of embedded systems. The goal of his research is to develop techniques and tools that would aid system designers to effectively design, debug and program real-time and embedded systems. Some of the application domains he has worked on include automotive electronics and software, body-area sensor networks for health monitoring, and real-time multimedia.

Prof. Chakraborty has extensively published in major research forums on these topics, including DAC, DATE, CODES+ISSS, ASP-DAC, RTSS and RTAS, and regularly serves on the technical program committees of many of these conferences. He has also served as the Track/Topic Chair of RTSS 2007, ASP-DAC 2009, 2010, DATE 2010, as the TPC Chair of IEEE ESTIMedia 2006, 2007, as the General Chair of IEEE ESTIMedia 2008, and as the TPC Co-Chair of EMSOFT 2009 (along with Nicolas Halbwachs from Verimag). Apart from more than 70 referred journal and conference articles, he has authored a number of patents and regularly gives invited talks and tutorials at various research labs and international conferences (such as ESWeek, VLSI Design, ACM Multimedia and ICME). For his Ph.D. thesis, he received the ETH Medal and the European Design and Automation Association’s “Outstanding Doctoral Dissertation Award” in 2004. His work has also received a HiPEAC Paper Award in 2009 and Best Paper Award nominations at DAC 2005, CODES+ISSS 2006, ECRTS 2007, and CODES+ISSS 2008.
