Annechien Sarah HelsdingenDr. Anne Helsdingen works as course developer and project manager, developing massive open online courses at the center for digital education from EPFL in Lausanne. Anne has nearly 20 years of experience in human factors research, training and training development, academic teaching and (research) management. Her experience in training and education is rich and varied and includes training critical thinking strategies to various civil and military organizations; designing training programs for military aircrews; developing specifications for artillery training simulators; design, develop and conduct blended learning programs for military commanders; and teaching psychology to bachelor and master students. Anne’s research focuses on learning complex cognitive skills such as reflection, critical thinking and decision-making. She has worked in many international multi-disciplinary research teams, commissioned, for instance, by NATO Research and Technology Organisation or the European Union. Having worked both in academia and in contract research provides her with ample experience in both applied and more fundamental research projects. In her pervious role as research director for Effat University in Saudi Arabia, she managed a diversified team of researchers and substantially contributed to the university’s scientific development by actively shaping and defining the university’s research structure and strategies.

He is best known for his work on iterative decoding algorithms of graph based codes, an area in which he holds a number of granted and pending patents. He is the co-inventor of Tornado codes, and the inventor of Raptor codes. His codes have been standardized and successfully deployed in practical areas dealing with data transmission over lossy networks.
Prior to joining EPFL, Amin Shokrollahi has held positions as the chief scientist of Digital Fountain, member of the technical staff at Bell Laboratories, senior researcher at the International Computer Science Insitute in Berkeley, and assistant professor at the department of computer science of the university of Bonn. He is a Fellow of the IEEE, and he was awarded the Best Paper Award of the IEEE IT Society in 2002 for his work on iterative decoding of LDPC code, the IEEE Eric Sumner Award in 2007 for the development of Fountain Codes, and the joint Communication Society/Information Theory Society best paper award of 2007 for his paper on Raptor Codes.
