Biography

Prof. Tsui, Chi-Ying received his B.S. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Hong Kong and his Ph.D. degree in computer engineering from the University of Southern California in 1994.

He joined the Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 1994 and is currently a full professor in the department. His research interests include designing VLSI architectures for low power multimedia and wireless applications, developing power management circuits and techniques for embedded portable devices and ultra-low power systems. He has published more than 170 referred publications and holds 10 US patents on power management, VLSI and multimedia systems.

He was the General Chair of the 19th IFIP/IEEE VLSI-SOC 2011 and he served on the organization committee of ASP-DAC'99. He served in the technical program committees of various conferences including DAC, ISLPED, VLSI, ASP-DAC and ESTIMEDIA. He is an associate editor of Integration, the International VLSI Journal and Multi-Scale Computing Systems, IEEE Transactions on (TMSCS). He is the co-founder of Perception Digital Limited, a listed-company in Hong Kong. He also consulted for local and multinational companies. He is an IEEE senior member. He is an Associate Dean of School of Engineering, HKUST.

He received the Best Paper awards from the IEEE Transactions on VLSI Systems in 1995, IEEE ISCAS in 1999, IEEE/ACM ISLPED in 2007, IEEE DELTA in 2008, and CODES in 2012. He also received the Design Awards in the IEEE ASP-DAC University Design Contest in 2004 and 2006.
