Additional information

Hari Kalva joined the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Florida Atlantic University as an Assistant Professor in August 2003. Prior to that he was a consultant with Mitsubishi Electric Research Labs, Cambridge, MA, where he worked on content adaptation, including MPEG-2 to MPEG-4 realtime video transcoding. He was a co-founder and the Vice President of Engineering of Flavor Software, a New York company founded in 1999, that developed MPEG-4 based solutions for the media and entertainment industry.

Dr. Kalva is an expert on digital audio-visual communications systems with over 12 years of experience in multimedia research, development, and standardization. He has made key contributions to the MPEG-4 Systems standard and also contributed to the DAVIC standards development. His current research activities include pervasive media delivery, multi-view and 3D video coding, and multimedia communications.

Dr. Kalva received a Ph.D. and an M.Phil. in Electrical Engineering from Columbia University in 2000 and 1999 respectively. He received an M.S. in Computer Engineering from Florida Atlantic University in 1994, and a B. Tech. in Electronics and Communications Engineering from N.B.K.R. Institute of Science and Technology, S. V. University, Tirupati, India in 1991.
