FRANK SILL TORRES

Frank Sill Torres obtained the diploma in Electrical Engineering in 2002, and the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering in 2007 from the University of Rostock, Germany. From 2007 until 2009 he worked as Post-Doc at the Department of Electrical Engineering, Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil, in the field of integrated analog-digital converter as well as reliable and robust design. Since 2010, he is Adjunct Professor at the Department of Electronic Engineering, Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG), Brazil, and permanent member of the Post-graduation programs in Electrical Engineering of the UFMG and the Federal University of Manaus (UFAM). His main research interests involve design for reliability, low-leakage techniques, and VLSI design for nanoscale technologies. Frank Sill Torres is the coordinator of the ?ASIC Reliability Group (OptMA/ART)? and sub-coordinator of the Laboratory for Optronics and Microtechnologies (OptMA_lab) at the UFMG. Frank is Program Chair of the Symposium on Integrated Circuits and Systems Design 2016 (SBCCI) and member of several conference committees, including the steering committee of the Symposium on Integrated Circuits and Systems Design (SBCCI), the organization committee of the NanoComputation Workshop (NaCoWo), and the program committee of the Latin American Test Symposium (LATS), and he is a member of the INCT-DISSE Nanodevices and Semiconductors. Further, he is also an Associate Researcher (ranked as level 2) of the Brazilian National Research Council (CNPq) and author and Co-author of more than 50 publications in scientific journals and congresses.
