My name is Florian and I am currently at Axelera AI. I formerly did my PhD at the Integrated Systems Laboratory of ETH Zurich. My research interest include the design of very large scale integration circuits with particular focus on application specific integrated circuits and their applications in high performance computing. Please don't hesitate to get in contact with me!
