. Specifically, he is involved with developing specialized hardware using FPGAs and other forms of reconfigurable logic for sonar beamforming and digital signal processing. He is also interested in the development of CAD tool support for run-time reconfiguration. Past projects have included implementing genetic algorithms in hardware (SPLASH II and other FPGA-based platforms), evaluating the use of FPGAs for floating-point arithmetic and mathematical image morphology, and studying the applicability of reconfigurable computers to the (C3I Non-Real-Time Parallel benchmarks). He is married to Samara McGrath and has a daughter named Brenna. |
