Biography
Ngai Wong (Senior Member, IEEE) received the B.Eng. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical and electronic engineering from The University of Hong Kong (HKU), Hong Kong. He was a Visiting Scholar with Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN, USA, in 2003. He is currently an Associate Professor with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, HKU. He was the Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design of Integrated Circuits and Systems from Jan 2014- Jun 2022, and has served as the track chair and member in the technical program committees (TPCs) of premier EDA conferences every year including DAC, ICCAD and ASP-DAC. He co-founded the IEEE Council on EDA (CEDA), Hong Kong Chapter in 2016, and was the Chair in 2018/19. His research interests include compact neural network design, compute-in-memory (CIM) AI chips, electronic design automation (EDA) and tensor algebra.
