Biography
Ronald J. Bolton is currently a Professor of Electrical Engineering at the University of Saskatchewan and Adjunct Scientist at Telecommunications Research Laboratories (TRLabs) in Saskatoon. Ron received B. Eng. and M.Sc. degrees from the University of Saskatchewan in 1972 and 1978 respectively and a Ph.D. degree from the University of Queensland in 1983. He presently teaches undergraduate and graduate courses in integrated circuit design, advanced electronics and pattern recognition. Current research interests are in VLSI design of application specific integrated circuits (ASICs). While on sabbatical leaves from the University, he has worked with the Canadian Microelectronics Corporation (CMC) in 1995 and Wavecom Electronics Ltd. (now VCom Electronics Ltd.) in 2003. Dr. Bolton is a Registered Proessional Engineer in Saskatchewan, a Member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and founder and president of Professional Special System Technologies Inc. (PSST).
