The CC chair welcomes Tauseef Ahmed to the team! Tauseef obtained his Bachelor’s degree in Electronics and Communication from the PES University in Bangalore India in 2013. He then spent several years working for companies such as Siemens, Intel, and IMEC. In 2025 he finished his Master’s degree in Artificial Intelligence from the Maastricht University. Tauseef joins the team in the context of the REACT Doctoral Network financed by the European Union within the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA). This project looks at self-awaRe nEuromorphic ArChiTectures, from the point of view of security, reliability and energy-efficiency. Tauseef experience in the micro-electronics industry and his background on computer architecture and artificial intelligence makes him ideal to tackle the challenges of programming and compiling reactive applications that execute close or at sensing nodes in cyber-physical systems (CPS). We look forward to working with Tauseef and are excited about having him in the team!
