ICCE 2018 Welcome by Conference Chair Prof Saraju Mohanty
Saraju Mohanty is an American professor of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, and the director of the NanoSystem Design Laboratory, at the University of North Texas in Denton, Texas. Mohanty received a Glorious India Award - Rich and Famous NRIs of America in 2017 for his contributions to the discipline. Mohanty is a researcher in the areas of "low-power high-performance nanoelectronics systems" and "hardware-assisted digital watermarking". He has made significant research contributions to analogue electronics and mixed-signal integrated circuit computer-aided design and electronic design automation, nanoelectronic technology based high-level synthesis, and hardware-assisted digital watermarking. Mohanty has been the Editor-in-Chief (EiC) of the IEEE Consumer Electronics Magazine since 2016. He has held the Chair of the IEEE Computer Society's Technical Committee on Very Large Scale Integration since September 2014. He holds 4 US patents in the areas of his research, and has published 220 research articles and 3 books.

Education
Saraju Mohanty started his schooling at Lodhachua, Nayagarh, Odisha. After graduating from Badagada Government High School, Bhubaneswar in 1988, Mohanty completed a 10+2 Science degree from Rajdhani College, Bhubaneswar in 1990. Whilst at high school he was a quite active and recognized member of The Bharat Scouts and Guides. He received his bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from the College of Engineering and Technology, Bhubaneswar, Orissa University of Agriculture and Technology, in 1995.
In 1999 Mohanty completed a master's degree in engineering in Systems Science and Automation from the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore, India. His thesis mentors at IISc were Professor K. R. Ramakrishnan and Professor Mohan Kankanhalli (IEEE Fellow) with whom he co-authored his first peer-reviewed paper. Mohanty earned a Ph.D. in computer engineering from the University of South Florida in 2003. His Ph.D. mentor was Professor N. Ranganathan (IEEE Fellow and AAAS Fellow).
Contributions to analog electronics and mixed-signal circuits
Mohanty has worked on design space exploration and optimization of nanoelectronic integrated circuits. The key feature of these design flows is the need for only two manual layout (or physical design) iterations which saves significant design effort. These fast design flows rely on accurate metamodels of the analog and mixed-signal circuit components. This research advances the state-of-the art in Design for Excellence (DfX) or Design for X, such as Design for Variability (DfV) and Design for Cost (DfC).
Contributions to high-level synthesis
Mohanty has worked to nanoscale CMOS or nanoelectronic technology based high-level synthesis (HLS) or architecture-level synthesis. This nanoelectronic-based High-level synthesis techniques addresses the issue of process variations, the primary issue of nanoelectronic technology, during the high-level synthesis itself before the digital design moves to the detailed and lower levels of design abstractions, such as logic-level or transistor-level.
Contributions to Digital watermarking and Digital rights management (DRM)
Mohanty has worked on the Secure Digital Camera (SDC) for real-time Digital rights management (DRM) at the source end of the multimedia content. The SDC can have applications where still image or video digital cameras are needed, such as secure Digital Video Broadcasting, secure Video Surveillance, electronic passport, and identity card processing. The secure digital camera (SDC) has been adopted by various researchers worldwide.
