Prof. Heinrich Meyr, IEEE Fellow Professor of
RWTH Aachen, Germany Director of Institute for
Integrated Signal Processing Systems, Aachen
University of Technology
Prof. Heinrich Meyr received his M.Sc. and
Ph.D. from ETH Zurich, Switzerland. He spent over
12 years in various research and management
positions in industry before accepting a
professorship in Electrical Engineering at Aachen
University of Technology (RWTH Aachen) in 1977.
He has worked extensively in the areas of
communication theory, digital signal processing
and CAD tools for system level design for the
last thirty years. His research has been applied
to the design of many industrial products. At
RWTH Aachen he is a co-director (together with
Prof. Gerd Ascheid) of the Institute for
Integrated Signal Processing System (ISS)
involved in the analysis and design of complex
signal processing systems for communication
applications. Prof. Meyr was a co-founder of
CADIS GmbH (acquired 1993 by Synopsys, Mountain
View, California) a company which commercialized
the tool suite COSSAP. In 2001 he has co-founded
LISATek Inc., a company with breakthrough
technology to design application specific
processors. Most recently (February 2003 )
LISATek has been acquired by CoWare, an
acknowledged leader in the area of system level
design. At Coware Dr.Meyr has accepted the
position of Chiefscientist.
Prof. Gerd Ascheid, IEEE Fellow Professor of RWTH
Aachen, Germany Director of Institute for
Integrated Signal Processing Systems, Aachen
University of Technology
Prof. Gerd Ascheid received the Dipl.-Ing. and
Dr.-Ing. (PhD) degrees from the Aachen University
in 1977 and 1984. PhD research focused on
synchronization algorithms for digital receivers
and their implementation using digital signal
processing. This work was complemented by
measurement and analysis of the non-linear
behaviour of phase locked loops in noise. After
the PhD he worked as Sr. Researcher at the Aachen
University , continuing the research on
synchronization and working on various industry
consulting projects for European and US based
companies. During that time he co-authored
(jointly with Dr. Meyr) the book "Synchronization
in Digital Communications", published by Wiley in
1990. In 1989 he started as a co-founder CADIS
GmbH, a company which commercialized the COSSAP
tool suite. As Managing Director, he headed the
design service activities of CADIS. Since 1994,
when Synopsys acquired CADIS, he have held
various positions at Synopsys. In his last
position as a Sr. Director, he had worldwide
responsibility for professional design services
in Wireless and Broadband Communications with
teams in Germany, France, India and US. Design
projects mainly focused on system specification
and implementation of the digital baseband
section for wireless communication systems.
Applications covered include Digital Video
Broadcasting via Satellite, a proprietary
satellite-based WAN, satellite-based mobile
digital audio broadcasting (US), Spacecraft
Transponder (for the European Space Agency, ESA),
digital microwave (4-256 QAM), and cell phone
standards like GSM/GPRS, EDGE, WCDMA(UMTS).
Broadband designs were mainly in the areas of ATM
and IP sec.
