Speaker: Reuven Weintraub, Gidel

The FPGA provides many advantages such as performance, low power etc. However, the FPGA use has been limited due to its development challenges. The traditional design methods effected system reliability and development time and cost. In this talk, we will see concepts of tools that enables to overcome FPGA development challenges their advantages and disadvantages and thus, improve system reliability, improve productivity - enabling to reduce projects development time and cost as well as enabling more designers such as algorithm developers to use the FPGA.

Speaker bio: Mr. Reuven Weintraub founded Gidel Ltd. in 1997 and has since been serving as the company’s CTO. After graduating from Israel’s prestigious Technion Institute of Technology, Mr. Weintraub served ten years in Medical Imaging companies in both technical and management positions. Based on his expertise in algorithm, particularly its implementation in FPGA technology, for the past 25+ years, Mr. Weintraub has been continuously at the frontier of FPGA utilization, developing innovations in the scope of system, hardware, and algorithms.
