Prof.dr. H. (Henk) Corporaal (1956 - )
Henk Corporaal is Professor in Embedded System Architectures at the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) in The Netherlands. He has gained a BSc and MSc in Theoretical Physics from the University of Groningen, and a PhD (cum laude) in Electrical Engineering, in the area of Computer Architecture, from Delft University of Technology.
His research is on low power multi-processor, heterogenous processing architectures, their programmability, and the predictable design of soft- and hard real-time systems. This includes research and design of embedded system architectures, like CGRAs, SIMD, VLIW and GPUs, on accelerators, the exploitation of all kinds of parallelism, fault-tolerance, approximate computing, energy-efficient architectures for machine and deep learning, optimizations and mapping of deep learning networks, and the (semi-)automated mapping of applications to these architectures.
Corporaal has co-authored over 600 journal and conference papers. He supervised more than 50 PhD and 200 Master thesis students at KULeuven, TUDelft and TUEindhoven. Furthermore, he invented a new class of VLIW architectures, the Transport Triggered Architectures, which is used in several commercial products, and by many research groups. He participated in more than 50 projects. Among them he initiated and led the Dutch NWO perspectief program on Efficient Deep Learning (efficientdeeplearning.nl); in this program many research institutes and over 30 companies participated. He also is the PI of the EU project CONVOLVE (convolve.eu) on seamless design of smart edge processors, with 19 partners. For many years Corporaal was chair of the exam board of Electrical Engineering, vice-chair of the exam board of Embedded Systems, and Scientific Director of DTI, the Design Technology Institute from TUE and NUS (Singapore).

Paul De Bra studied Mathematics (with a focus on Computer Science) at the University of Antwerp and graduated in 1981. He also obtained a teaching degree in 1981, and in 1987 a PhD in (Computer) Science, also in Antwerp. His research field was Databases, with a thesis on Horizontal Decompositions in the Relational Database Model. For most of 1988 and 1989 he worked as a post-doctoral researcher at AT&T Bell Laboratories in Murray Hill, New Jersey, in the Information Systems Principles department. After that he became first associate and later (1996) full professor at the TU/e, in the field of Databases. He is best known for his research on personalization in web-based systems and on technology-enhanced learning. He published around 200 scientific papers and 3 books. For many years he was board member (and for 8 years also president) of User Modeling Inc., a non-profit organization for User Modeling, Adaptation and Personalization. Since his retirement Paul De Bra has turned his attention to music, and in particular to the accordion. For about 30 years he was conductor of the accordion ensemble Avanti in Antwerp (until 2014). He makes many arrangements for accordion ensembles, which are freely available and played all over the world. He plays the bass accordion in ensembles and orchestras, and is a trained accordion repairer (who does voluntary repair work, only for friends).

P.J. (Piet) Lemstra (Godlinze (Groningen), 26 oktober 1946), bijnaam PLEM, is een Nederlands hoogleraar scheikunde. Prof. dr. Lemstra promoveerde aan de Rijksuniversiteit Groningen in 1975. Vervolgens was hij post-doctoraal fellow aan de Universiteit van Bristol (UK) onder professor Andrew Keller. Van 1976 tot 1985 werkte hij bij DSM Research waar hij samen met Paul Smith de supersterke vezel Dyneema heeft ontwikkeld. In 1985 werd Lemstra hoogleraar aan de Technische Universiteit Eindhoven. Van 1990 tot 1995 was hij voor de eerste maal decaan van de faculteit Scheikundige Technologie. Van 1994-1997 was Lemstra directeur van de onderzoeksschool Polymeren (PTN) en in 1997 richtte hij samen met professor het (DPI) op, waar hij tot 2004 werkte als wetenschappelijk directeur. In 2004 richtte hij met de op ten behoeve van de samenwerking met het MKB. In februari 2008 werd Lemstra (tot en met maart 2011) wederom decaan. Op 30 september 2011 hield hij -na ruim een kwart eeuw aan de TU/e-zijn afscheidscollege. Daarna ging hij aan de slag in China. Zie ook: Piet Lemstra - Wikipedia About - Plempolco B.V.
