Congratulations to Dr. Gary Grewal and his team for a third-place finish at the ACM International Symposium on Physical Design 2016 FPGA Placement Contest.

Several weeks ago we reported that Dr. Gary Grewal and his team including the School of Engineering's Ryan Pattison (former SoCS student), Ziad Abuowaimer, Dr. Shawki Areibi, and Dr. Anthony Vannelli (Dean of CPES) were ranked top 5 in the ACM International Symposium on Physical Design 2016 FPGA Placement Contest.

Given their ranking, the team was invited to attend the conference. While there, they learned that out of 20 international entries they had won a third-place standing. For more information about the contest, click here.

Congrats again to Gary and his team!
