Biography
Mirjana Stojilović received the Dipl. Ing. and Ph.D. degrees from the School of Electrical Engineering, University of Belgrade, in 2006 and 2013, respectively. From 2010 to 2013, she was collaborating with the Processor Architecture Laboratory at EPFL, visiting periodically as a Guest Researcher. From 2013 to 2016, she worked at the University of Applied Sciences Western Switzerland as a senior researcher, and at EPFL as a lecturer. She joined Parallel Systems Architecture Lab at EPFL in October 2016.Mirjana's main research interests span the areas of field-programmable technology, electronic design automation (EDA), and, more recently, electrical-level attacks and countermeasures for reconfigurable hardware.
Mirjana Stojilović serves on the program committee of the FPGA, FCCM, FPL, and DATE conferences and as a reviewer for IEEE TCAD, TVLSI, TC, TEMC, IEEE Access, IEEE TPDS, and ACM TRETS. She is an associate editor for IEEE ESL and ACM TRETS. In 2021, she was on the Best Paper Award (BPA) committee of the FPGA conference. In 2020, she was nominated for the BPA at the International Conference on Field-Programmable Technology (FPT). Mirjana received the Best Paper Award at 2016 International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC Europe 2016), Young Scientist Award at 33rd International Conference on Lightning Protection (ICLP2016), and the Young Author Best Paper Award at the 20th Telecommunication Forum in Belgrade (TELFOR 2012). In 2015, the EPFL School of Computer and Communication Sciences (IC) presented her with the Teaching Award.
