Prof. Honold's research area is algebraic coding theory and its links with abstract algebra, combinatorics and geometry. Although being educated as a pure rather than applied mathematician, he has shifted his interests (especially during his stay at Zhejiang University) towards applications and done application-specific research, for example on error-detecting codes for Industrial Communication, on LDPC codes and on network coding. The current project (since 2016) on subspace codes for network coding is supported by a grant from the National Natural Science Foundation of

Dr. Chen is an assistant professor with ZJU-UIUC Institute, International Campus, Zhejiang University. His research interests include multi-physics computation methods and their applications for micro/nano-scale electronic devices and 3-D ICs.

Prof. Li is currently a Distinguished Professor, Vice-Dean for Faculty of Information Technology, Director for RF and Nanoelectronic Research Center at Zhejiang University, China. He received the Ph.D. Degree in Electrical Engineering from Sheffield Hallam University, Sheffield, U.K, in 1992 under the Scholar of Chinese Ministry of Education. From 1989 to 1992, he was a Research Associate in the School of Electronic and Information Technology at Sheffield Hallam University.

Professor Philip Krein earned his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from University of Illinois in 1982. He is a Fellow of IEEE and a member of the U.S. National Academy of Engineering.
