About the authors
Mladen Božanić, SMIEE, obtained his B. Eng. (with distinction), B. Eng. (Hons) (with distinction) and Ph.D. degrees in Electronic Engineering from the University of Pretoria (UP) in 2006, 2008 and 2011 respectively. In 2008, he joined Azoteq, a fabless IC design company originating in South Africa with where he has been responsible for the silicon-level design, simulation characterization design for testability (DFT) of various analog, RF, digital and mixed-mode circuits. While actively working in the industry, he also participates in research activities, currently with the University of Johannesburg (UJ) where he is serving as a Senior Research Fellow. Since 2011, Dr. Božanić has been fulfilling a role of a Specialist Editor of South African Institute of Electrical Engineers (SAIEE). He is a recipient of SAMES Award and CEFIM Fellowship Award, and an author or co-author of over 10 peer-reviewed journal and conference articles, one book chapter and one book.
Saurabh Sinha, SMIEEE, FSAIEE, FSAAE, obtained his B.Eng., M.Eng., and Ph.D. degrees in Electronic Engineering from the University of Pretoria (UP), South Africa. He achieved both his B.Eng. and M.Eng. with distinction. As a published researcher, he has authored or co-authored over 85 publications in peer-reviewed journals and at international conferences. In addition, he is the managing editor of the South African Institute of Electrical Engineers (SAIEE) Africa Research Journal. Prof. Sinha served the UP for over a decade, his last service being as Director of the Carl and Emily Fuchs Institute for Microelectronics, Department of Electrical, Electronic and Computer Engineering. On 1 October 2013, Prof. Sinha was appointed as Executive Dean of the Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment (FEBE) at the University of Johannesburg (UJ). Prof. Saurabh Sinha is the 2014-2015 Vice-President, IEEE Educational Activities and serves on the IEEE Board of Directors.
