This award-winning thesis extensively discusses innovative solutions for hardware efficient and high throughput reconfigurable channel decoders for wireless communication standards. This research demonstrates practical applications considering the critical challenges in the field of 5G New Radio Standard. These are the applications that can bring tremendous changes in the VLSI design landscape.

On receiving this honour, Dr. Anuj Verma said, “It is a matter of great pride for me and I believe that this award is a testament to dedication and collaboration. I would like to dedicate this award to my supervisor Dr. Rahul Shrestha, whose guidance and advice played a vital role in shaping my research journey. I also express my heartfelt gratitude to my family, whose constant support and encouragement motivated me and to the members of the VLSID 2025 Conference Committee for recognizing my work.”

The award reflects the innovation and impact of Verma’s research in advancing energy-efficient and reconfigurable architectures for next-generation wireless communication systems. It also highlights his commitment to pushing the boundaries of technology in VLSI design. Verma’s research contributions have already made a significant mark in the VLSI domain. He has several publications in several prestigious journals, including IEEE TCAS-I, IEEE TVT, and IEEE TCAS-II. Verma aims to make further significant contributions to cutting-edge research in VLSI design, collaborate with industry and academia, and inspire innovation in the field of advanced VLSI design.

VLSID Conference – International VLSI Design and Embedded Systems Conference is a premier global conference with a legacy of over three and a half decades. This global annual technical conference which focuses on the latest advancements in VLSI and embedded systems is attended by over 2000 engineers, students and faculty members, industry, academia, researchers, bureaucrats and government bodies. VLSI Design Conference started in 1985 as a simple idea to understand the level of VLSI activities in India with a focus on engineering education and research. With its global presence, VLSID is recognized as the ‘sister conference’ of Design Automation Conference. The conference is sponsored by VLSI Society of India (VSI).
