Drazen Jurisic (Member, IEEE) received the B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Zagreb, Croatia, in 1990, 1995, and 2002, respectively. From 1997 to 1999, he was with the Institute of Signal and Information Processing, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH), Zürich, Switzerland. Since 2008, he has been visiting the Faculty of Engineering at Bar-Ilan University, Israel, and conducting research in the field of analog circuits and filters. He is currently a Full Professor with the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing (FER), University of Zagreb. He lectures in the field of electrical circuits, signals and systems, and analog and mixed-signal processing circuitry. His research interests include analog and digital signal processing and filter designs, integrated circuit designs, and the study and analysis of fractional-order systems. He has been an MC Member of the COST Action CA15225, “Fractional-Order Systems: Analysis, Synthesis, and Their Importance for Future Design.” He is a member of the Croatian Society for Communications, Computing, Electronics, Measurement and Control and the IEEE-CAS Society. He was awarded the Silver Plaque Josip Loncar for his Ph.D. thesis and an IEEE Best Paper Finalist Award for a conference paper.
Prof. Dr. Costas Psychalinos serves as a Full Professor and Faculty member at the Electronics Laboratory, Department of Physics, University of Patras, Greece. He received his B.Sc. degree in Physics and his Ph.D. degree in Electronics from the University of Patras, Greece, in 1986 and 1991, respectively. From 1993 to 1995, he worked as a Post-Doctoral Researcher at the VLSI Design Laboratory, University of Patras. From 1996 to 2000, he was an Adjunct Lecturer at the Department of Computer Engineering and Informatics, University of Patras. From 2000 to 2004, he served as an Assistant Professor at the Electronics Laboratory, Department of Physics, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece. His research area is in the development of CMOS analog integrated circuits, including fractional-order circuits and systems, continuous and discrete-time analog filters, amplifiers, and low voltage/low power building blocks for analog signal processing.
