BGNam

Byeong-Gyu Nam received his B.S.degree (summa cum laude) in computer engineering from Kyungpook National University, Daegu, Korea,in 1999, M.S. and Ph.D.degrees in electrical engineering and computer science (EECS) from Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), Daejeon, Korea, in 2001 and 2007, respectively. His Ph.D. work focused on low-power GPU design for wireless mobile devices. In 2001, he joined Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI), Daejeon, Korea, where he was involved in a network processor design for InfiniBand™ protocol. From 2007 to 2010, he was with Samsung Electronics, Giheung, Korea, where he worked on world first 1-GHz ARM Cortex™ microprocessor design.
Dr. Nam is currently with Chungnam National University (CNU), Daejeon, Korea, as a Professor His current interests include machine learning processor, graphics processor, microprocessor and low-power SoC design. He co-authored the book Mobile 3D Graphics SoC: From Algorithm to Chip (Wiley, 2010) and presented tutorials on mobile processor design at IEEE 1SSCC 2012 and IEEE A-SSCC 2011.
