Saraju Mohanty is an American professor of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, and the Director of the NanoSystem Design Laboratory , at the University of North Texas in Denton, Texas.[1][2] Professor Mohanty is a researcher in the areas of "Low-Power High-Performance Nanoelectronics Systems" and "hardware-assisted Digital watermarking".[3] He has made significant research contributions to analogue electronics and mixed-signal integrated circuit computer-aided design and Electronic design automation, nanoelectronic technology based high-level synthesis, and hardware-assisted digital watermarking. He has held the Chair of the IEEE Computer Society's Technical Committee on Very Large Scale Integration since September 2014.[4][5] He holds 4 US patents in the areas of his research. Professor Mohanty has published 200 papers and 3 books.[6][7][8]
Education
Saraju Mohanty started his schooling at Lodhachua, Nayagarh, Odisha. After graduating from Badagada Government High School, Bhubaneswar in 1988, Mohanty completed a 10+2 Science degree from Rajdhani College, Bhubaneswar in 1990. Whilst at high school he was a quite active and recognized member of The Bharat Scouts and Guides. He received his bachelor's degree (with Honors) in electrical engineering from the College of Engineering and Technology, Bhubaneswar, Orissa University of Agriculture and Technology, in 1995.[9][10]
In 1999 Mohanty completed a master's degree in engineering in Systems Science and Automation from the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore, India. His master's thesis mentors were Professor K. R. Ramakrishnan[11] and Professor Mohan S. Kankanhalli[12] with whom he co-authored his first peer-reviewed paper.[13] Mohanty earned a Ph.D. in computer engineering from the University of South Florida in 2003. His Ph.D. mentor was Professor N. Ranganathan (IEEE Fellow and AAAS Fellow).[14][15][16]
Notable scientific contributions
Contributions to analog electronics and mixed-signal circuits
Mohanty has worked on design space exploration and optimization of nanoelectronic integrated circuits. The key feature of these design flows is the need for only two manual layout (or physical design) iterations which saves significant design effort. These ultra-fast design flows rely on accurate metamodels of the analog and mixed-signal circuit components. His research significantly advances the state-of-the art in Design for Excellence (DfX) or Design for X, such as Design for Variability (DfV) and Design for Cost (DfC).[17]
Contributions to high-level synthesis
Mohanty is a contributor to nanoscale CMOS or nanoelectronic technology based high-level synthesis (HLS) or architecture-level synthesis.[18][19][20] His nanoelectronic-based High-level synthesis techniques addresses the issue of process variations, the primary issue of nanoelectronic technology, during the high-level synthesis itself before the digital design moves to the detailed and lower levels of design abstractions, such as logic-level or transistor-level.[21]
Contributions to Digital watermarking and Digital rights management (DRM)
Mohanty has worked on the Secure Digital Camera (SDC) for real-time Digital rights management (DRM) at the source end of the multimedia content. The SDC has quite diverse applications where still image or video digital cameras are needed, such as secure Digital Video Broadcasting, secure Video Surveillance, electronic passport, and identity card processing. The secure digital camera (SDC) has been well-adopted by various researchers worldwide.[22][23][24]
