Summary of Current Research and Development Activities
For the last few years, I have been working in several areas:
1. Coding theory
2. Instrumentation and Measurement
3. Biomedical engineering
4. Control Theory
5. Microcontrollers
Future Directions for Research and Development
I expect work in the biomedical signal processing area to occupy a fair amount of my time. My work on coding theory, with Dr. Osnat Keren of Bar Ilan University’s faculty of engineering, is also proceeding nicely, and I expect to continue working in that area for the next few years. As part of my work on instrumentation and measurement, I have written about compressive sensing. I intend to work in that field as well. I also examine questions related to digital signal processing and control theory from time to time. Finally, I am doing work on image and video processing with Dr. Frishman and his group.
Summary of Past Research and Development Activities
In the past, in addition to the topics mentioned in the previous paragraphs, I have performed work in the areas of non-linear partial differential equations, mathematical physics, circuits and signals, and control theory. I have no immediate plans to return to full-time work on non-linear partial differential equations and mathematical physics, but only time will tell. I am still involved in the other fields, but not to the extent that I once was.

Ties to Other Institutions
1. Until academic year 2013, I generally taught two courses at Bar Ilan University each year. (In October 2014, I became dean of JCT’s school of engineering and computer science and, according to the rules of the Council for Higher Education, I am not be permitted to work outside JCT.)
2. I was a postdoc at Tel Aviv University. I have taken a (half) sabbatical there, and I have published papers with Prof. Steve Schochet of TAU’s applied mathematics department.
3. I am engaged in research with Dr. Osnat Keren of Bar Ilan University.
4. I spent a half sabbatical at Bar Ilan University in the Springs of 2011 and 2012.
Academic Promotion Committee Service
1. I served on one committee to evaluate a JCT faculty member up for promotion to senior teacher.
2. I served on one committee to evaluate a JCT faculty member up for promotion to associate professor.
