    Dr Umut Arioz received his PhD from The Medical Informatics Department at Middle East Technical University, Ankara (2012). The title of his PhD thesis was "Developing Subject-Specific Frequency Lowering Algorithms with Simulated Hearing Loss for The Enhancement of Sensorineural Hearing Loss". His research interests include Biomedical Signal/Image Processing, Health Informatics, Audio/Speech Processing, Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning, Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Hearing Loss Simulation, Subjective Testing and Analysis Techniques, Psychoacoustics. He graduated from the Biomedical Engineering department (MSc) at Hacettepe University, Ankara and the Electrical and Electronics Engineering department (BSc) at Dokuz Eylul University, Izmir.


    Invited talk 3: Dr. Miquel Moreto Planas

    Bio: Miquel Moreto is a Ramon y Cajal Fellow at the Computer Architecture Departament (DAC) at the Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya-Barcelona Tech (UPC), and he leads the High Performance Domain Specific Architectures team at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC). Miquel received the BSc, MSc, and PhD from the UPC. After finishing the PhD, he spent 15 months at the International Computer Science Institute (ICSI), affiliated with UC Berkeley, as a Fulbright Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Holder during 2011 and 2012. In 2013, he returned to Barcelona to work on the RoMoL project and other European (Mont-Blanc, EPI, DeepHealth, eProcessor) and industrial projects (Arm, IBM, Lenovo). In 2019, he led the design and fabrication of Lagarto, the first processor developed in Spain based on the open source RISC-V instruction set architecture. Finally, he coordinates the DRAC project, which is promoting the Lagarto initiative with new generations of the Lagarto processor and accelerators.

    Title: DRAC: Designing RISC-V-based Accelerators for next generation Computers

    Abstract: Designing RISC-V-based Accelerators for next generation Computers (DRAC) is a 3-year project (2019-2022) funded by the ERDF Operational Program of Catalonia 2014-2020. DRAC will design, verify, implement and fabricate a high performance general purpose processor that will incorporate different accelerators based on the RISC-V technology, with specific applications in the field of security, genomics and autonomous navigation. In this talk, we will provide an overview of the main achievements in the DRAC project, including the fabrication of Lagarto, the first RISC-V processor developed in Spain.
