Biography

Khaled Abdel-Ghaffar (M'94) received the B.Sc. degree from Alexandria University, Alexandria, Egypt, in 1980 and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, in 1983 and 1986, respectively, all in electrical engineering.
In 1988, he joined the University of California, Davis, where he is now a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering. He did research at the IBM Almaden Research Center, San Jose, CA, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands, University of Bergen, Norway, and Alexandria University, Egypt. His main interest is coding theory.
Dr. Abdel-Ghaffar served as an Associate Editor for Coding Theory for the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory from 2002 to 2005. He is a corecipient of the IEEE Communications Society 2007 Stephen O. Rice Prize paper award.
