My
research is broadly in Memory Systems, particularly Flash Memory. I'm also interested
in computer architecture and micro-architecture design.
Short
Professional Biography
Amit
Berman is a Ph.D candidate at the Electrical
Engineering Department, Technion –
Israel Institute of Technology. He received the B.Sc and M.Sc in Electrical
Engineering at 2006 and 2010 respectively. He is a recipient of several awards,
including HPI fellowship and Intel research award. He held engineering and
management positions at Intel and Saifun (acquired by Spansion) during
2003-2009. He authored several international publications in the field of
non-volatile memory and computer architecture and holds several pending US
patents.
