Gert Jervan
Gert Jervan is a senior research fellow at the Department of Computer Engineering at Tallinn University of Technology. He
received his M.Sc. degree from Tallinn
University of Technology in 1998 and Tech. Lic. and Ph. D. degrees from Linköping
University (LIU), Sweden in 2002 and 2005, respectively. He was previously with the Embedded Systems Laboratory
(ESLAB) at Linköping
University, Sweden
He belongs to the management committee
of the Estonian centre of excellence in research CEBE (Centre for Integrated Electronic Systems
and Biomedical Engineering) and is one of the coordinators of the EU
FP7 REGPOT project CREDES
(Centre of Research Excellence in Dependable Embedded Systems). Since 2006 he is a member of the Estonian Science Foundation's Expert Commission for Physical Sciences and Engineering. He is also one of the authors of the Strategic Plan of Tallinn University of Technology 2011-2015.
Previously he was one of the coordinators of the national graduate school in information and communication technologies (2005-2008); prepared and managed the R&D infrastructure development project "Embedded Systems and Components" at the Department of Computer Engineering (2005-2008).
He was a special sessions chair and one of the main organizers of the 2010 Diagnostic Services in Network-on-Chips workshop (co-located with DAC 2010). Recently he was serving as a vice program chair of Norchip 2008 (November 17-18, 2008), general chair of the 19th EAEEEIE Annual Conference (June 29 - July 2, 2008) and was one of the organizers of the DATE 2008 Friday Workshop Impact of Process Variability on Design and Test. In 2011 he was the organizer of two special sessions: Power and Thermal Issues in 3D ICs at the IEEE International Workshop on Impact of Low Power Design on Test and Reliability (LPonTR), May 26-27, Trondheim, Norway and Dependability in multiprocessor and reconfigurable SoCs at the 6th International Workshop on Reconfigurable Communication Centric Systems-on-Chip (ReCoSoC 2011), June 20-22, Montpellier, France
Up to date CV (incl. publications) from the ETIS database (link opens in a new window).
