LUIS ALFONSO TRAIN ARRONTES

Luis Alfonso Train Arrontes is a Full Professor at the Electronic Technology Department of Carlos III University of Madrid, affiliated with the Pedro Juan de Lastanosa Institute of Technology Development and Innovation and the Microelectronic Design and Applications (DMA) research group. His work focuses on radiation effects on microprocessors, fault-tolerant architectures, and error mitigation techniques for aerospace applications.

• Key Research Areas: Radiation-hardened electronics, FPGA-based fault injection, approximate computing, lockstep architectures, and GPU-accelerated systems.
• Notable Projects: Principal Investigator for RADNEXT (European Commission, 2021–2026), Modulos Hardware de Alta Fiabilidad para RISC-V (AEI, 2024–2025), and Diseño y verificación de sistemas en chip heterogéneos (AEI, 2020–2023).
• Publications: Over 40 peer-reviewed articles in journals like IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, IEEE Access, and Microelectronics Reliability, covering topics such as radiation-induced errors, fault detection, and self-repairing hardware.
• Patents: Co-inventor of a 2019 patent for an integrated circuit identification device.

His research bridges hardware design, radiation physics, and aerospace engineering, with applications in space-grade electronics and terrestrial radiation environments.
