Reza Javeheri
PhD. Candidate
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Ryerson University
Advisor: Dr. Reza Sedaghat, Dr. Tom Chau
E-mail: rjavaher[at]ee[dot]ryerson[dot]com
Education & Training:
Reza received his B.Eng (Tehran University) in Computer Engineering and MASc degree (Ryerson University) in Electrical and Computer Engineering. He has previously worked on Line Probing Technology for ADSL and has had three years work experience at Unistar Micro Technology Inc. and two year teaching experience at the Iranian Research Organization for Science and Technology (IROST). His previous research was on dependability Evaluation and Reliability Assessment including Fault Injection into Switch level and HDL Models (Simulation-Based and FPGA-Based) and Reliability Issues in Deep Sub-Micron VLSI.
Current Research:
His research interests involve the development of access pathways to enable individuals with physical disabilities to communicate with environment. His current research is geared toward the design of a Reconfigurable System on Chip (SOC) device using the potential of surface electromyography (SEMG) and mechanomyogram (MMG) to measure and study the relation of neuromuscular signals and improve voluntary muscle contraction by supramaximal stimulus of people with motor impairments. The re-configurability allows the device to bias for each individual based on body signals.
