Carlos Carreras received engineering and M.S. degrees in electrical engineering from the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (U.P.M.) in 1986 and the University of Texas at Austin in 1989, respectively. He received his Ph.D. degree also from U.P.M. in 1993. From 1987 to 1991 he was a Staff member at Honeywell Bull (Madrid) and Schlumberger Well Services (Austin, TX). Since 1991, he is with the Electrical Engineering Department at UPM, where he currently is a Full Professor. He has actively participated in a number of national and international research projects in the fields of implementation of signal processing circuits, CAD tools development, and hardware acceleration. He is also co-author of multiple publications in these fields. His current research interests are in the areas of architecture and electronic design of high-performance processing systems and accelerators, and CAD tools for system design.
