Computer Architecture Lab (CALCM) Center for Silicon System Implementation (CSSI) Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering Carnegie Mellon University 5000 Forbes Ave. Hamerschlag Hall, A-313 Pittsburgh, PA 15213 Curriculum Vitae  Research     Teaching      Personal Research Agenda (Sep 2011) I am currently a post-doc at Microsoft Research Silicon Valley. Previously, I completed my PhD in 2011 under the supervision of my advisor, Prof. James C. Hoe, at the Computer Architecture Lab at Carnegie Mellon (CALCM). My research interests are in computer architecture and reconfigurable computing. I am the lead student for the Connected RAMs (CORAMs) project, an effort to rethink how FPGA memory systems should be architected for computing. I have also led the ProtoFlex project, an effort to accelerate full-system, multiprocessor simulations using novel FPGA approaches. This work is affiliated with the RAMP project. I have collaborated with various students, researchers, and faculty, including Peter Milder, Brian Gold, Jared Smolens, Jangwoo Kim, Michael Papamichael, Prof. Babak Falsafi, and Prof. Ken Mai. During my 2008 internship at Microsoft Research SVC, I worked with Chuck Thacker and John Davis to develop applications for the BEE3 FPGA. My work in these areas has been generously funded in part by NSF, IBM, Intel, Sun Microsystems, Xilinx, and through a Microsoft Research Fellowship.
