Bashir Mohammed Ali Al-Hashimi (born 5 January 1961)[2] is a computer engineering researcher, academic and higher education leader. He is Vice President (Research & Innovation) and ARM Professor of Computer Engineering at King's College London in the United Kingdom.[3][4] He was the co-founder and co-director of the ARM-ECS Research Centre,[5] an industry-university collaboration partnership involving the University of Southampton and ARM.[6] He is the chair of the Engineers 2030 working group, a national campaign overseen by the National Engineering Policy Centre and led by the UK Royal Academy of Engineering. The campaign centres around accelerating change and the future workforce of engineering.[7]

Research and academic career

Bashir has made theoretical and experimental contributions to the field of hardware-software co-design,[8][9] low power semiconductor chips test[10] and test-data compression of digital integrated circuits[11][12] and energy-harvesting computing.[13][14]

In 2009, he established the Pervasive Systems Centre.[15] He has published 6 books (including Many-Core Computing: Hardware and Software, IET (2019)[16] and nearly 400 referred technical papers.[17][18]

He was the project director for PRiME,[19] an EPSRC funded five-year programme (2013–2018) researching in the areas of low power, highly-parallel, reconfigurable and dependable computing and verified software design.[20]

He was also the project director for the EPSRC funded Holistic battery-free electronics project,[21] aiming to develop ultra-energy-efficient electronic systems for emerging applications including mobile digital health and autonomous wireless monitoring in environmental and industrial settings. The project has played an important role in shaping and influencing the academic research agenda worldwide in powering Internet of Things devices in a sustainable way.[22]

In 2014, he was appointed Executive Dean of the Faculty of Physical Sciences and Engineering at Southampton and in 2018, as Executive Dean of the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences,[23] where he remains a Visiting Professor at the School of Electronics and Computer Science (ECS).[24] In 2020, he joined King's College London to lead the Faculty of Natural and Mathematical Sciences, leading the change to Natural, Mathematical & Engineering Sciences at King's.[25]

Awards, honours and fellowhips

Appointments

Bashir is an Elected Trustee of the Royal Academy of Engineering Board[36] and completed in 2023 a term as chair of the Academy's Awards Committee. He is a Board Director of the ERA Foundation[37] and a UK Electronics Skills Foundation (UKESF)[38] Board Trustee and Director.[39]

He was a member of the Research England Expanding Excellence in England (E3) Fund Assessment Panel[40] and he served as a panel member on the UK Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2014[41] and the REF 2021 Engineering Panel.[42]

He was a Trustee of King's College London Mathematics School, completing his term in 2023.[43]
