Summary
Xuanqi Chen is a Senior DSE Researcher with 10 years of experience bridging computer architecture, CAD/CAE simulation, and silicon photonics, currently leading PnP modeling and CPU floating-point unit DSE at Huawei Hong Kong Research Center. He is the product owner of the open-source BOSIM optical simulator and an award-winning author (TCVLSI Best Paper), blending deep academic rigor from a PhD with hands-on system and simulator optimization. Technically fluent in Python, C/C++, Chisel, Linux toolchains, and PyTorch, he focuses on simulator performance through advanced modeling, algorithms, and parallelism. His work spans FDTD, SPICE-compatible modeling, and co-simulation of photonic-electronic systems, with patents pending from his hybrid system tuning methods. Known for profiling across x86_64 and RISC-V stacks and integrating DRAM and interconnect models, he brings rare cross-domain expertise that accelerates both research and product delivery.
