I (Shaahin Angizi) am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), Newark, NJ, USA, and the director of the ACAD Lab. 

I completed my doctoral studies in Electrical Engineering at the School of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering, Arizona State University (ASU), Tempe, AZ.

​

My group research interests include the cross-layer (device/circuit/architecture/algorithm/application) co-design of energy-efficient and high-performance systems with the following directions:

  • Accelerator Design for Big Data Applications: Deep Learning, Bioinformatics, Graph Processing, etc.

  • In-Memory Computing with Volatile & Non-Volatile Memories

  • Adaptive Learning for Collaborative In-Edge AI Computing IoT Systems

  • Low Power and Area-Efficient In-Sensor Computing for IoT 

  • Hardware Security Solution for Emerging Non-Volatile Memories

  • Low power VLSI circuits

​
