Eduardo de la Torre

He is Associate Professor of Electronics since 2002, and obtained his MSC and PhD degrees in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from Universidad Politécnica de Madrid in 1989 and 2000, respectively. His main expertise is in FPGA-based embedded systems design and, in particular, on partial and dynamic reconfiguration of digital systems and reconfigurable Hardware acceleration. He has been working more than 25 years on digital systems design, among which more than 20 have been around FPGAs, mostly in industrial applications. He has more than 50 papers on reconfigurable systems in the last five years, and around 200 papers overall. He has been General Chair of the DASIP (2014) and ReCoSoC (2017) Conferences, as well as Program Co-Chair of ReCoSoC (2015), ReConFig (2012 and 2013), DASIP (2013), DCIS (2014) and SPIE VLSI Circuits & Systems (2009 and 2011). He is Program Committee member of Conferences such as FPL, ReCoSoC, RAW, WRC, ISVLSI, or SIES. He is also reviewer of numerous Conferences and Journals such as IEEE Transactions on Computers, IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics, IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics, or Sensor Magazine, Elsevier MICPRO. Currently he is involved in two European funded Projects, Enable-S3 (ECSEL JU) and Cerbero (H2020-ICT) as group leader, as well as a National funded project. All these three projects are on the topic of embedded reconfigurable CPSs, from which the ARTICo3 architecture is being enhanced and refined.
