David Bol
was born in Ottignies, Belgium in 1981. He received the M.Sc. degree in
Electromechanical Engineering from
Université
catholique de Louvain
(UCL), Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium in 2004. From 2004 to 2008, he
was a Ph.D student at the Microelectronics laboratory from UCL. In 2008, he
received
the Ph.D degree in Engineering Science for a
dissertation entitled "Pushing Ultra-Low-Power Digital Circuits into
the
Nanometer Era".
In 2004, he was an exchange student at the KTH Royal Institute of
Technology, Stockholm, Sweden, in embedded
systems and in 2005, a visiting Ph.D student at the CNM
National Centre for Microelectronics,
Sevilla, Spain, in advanced logic design. In 2009, he was a
postdoctoral researcher at
intoPIX,
Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium, in low-power design for JPEG2000 image
processing. In 2010, he was a visiting postdoctoral
researcher at the UC
Berkeley Laboratory for Manufacturing and Sustainability,
Berkeley, CA, in life-cycle assessment of the semiconductor
environmental impact. In 2015, he participated to the creation of e-peas semiconductors, Liège, Belgium. He
is now an assistant professor in the ICTEAM institute of UCLouvain.
Prof. Bol is currently leading with Prof. Denis Flandre the Electronic Circuits and Systems (ECS) research group
focused on ultra-low-power design of integrated circuits for the IoT
including computing, power management, sensing and RF communications
with focuses on technology/circuit interaction in nanometer CMOS nodes,
mixed-signal SoC implementation and variability mitigation. He is
also responsible of four M.Sc courses in Electrical Engineering at
UCL on digital, analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits and systems
as well as sensors.
Prof. Bol has
authored or co-authored more than 9 technical papers and conference
contributions and holds three patents. He (co-)received three Best Paper/Poster/Design Awards
in IEEE conferences (ICCD 2008, SOI Conf. 2008, FTFC 2014). He is an associate editor for MDPI J.
Low-Power Electronics and Applications and a TPC member for IEEE SubVt
and S3S conferences. He also serves as a reviewer for
various journals and conferences such as IEEE
J. of
Solid-State Circuits, IEEE Trans. on VLSI Syst., IEEE Trans. on Circuits and Syst. I/II and ACM Design Automation Conf. Since 2008, he presented several invited papers and
keynote
tutorials in international conferences. |
