I am a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University. (My official webpage.) My research interests include computer architecture, reconfigurable computing, and high-level hardware description and synthesis. I lead the Intel/VMware Crossroads 3D-FPGA Academic Research Center.

I received my PhD in EECS from MIT in 2000 (S.M., 1994). I received my BS in EECS from UC Berkeley in 1992. I am an IEEE Fellow (2013).

For Fall 2021, I am holding office hours by Zoom, open to all matters and all students, on Mondays 10~11am and Wednesdays 11~12am. If you are not an 18643 student, please email ahead to confirm. Please email for an appointment if you cannot make it to the regular hours. My recommendations for ECE undergrads.

• Spring: ECE 18-447: Introduction to Computer Architecture

• Fall: ECE 18-643: Reconfigurable Logic - Technology, Architecture and Applications

• Intel/VMware Crossroads 3D-FPGA Academic Research Center (FPGA Architecture for Computing)
• CONNECT NoC Generator relaunched with 3-clause BSD license without use restrictions.
• Pigasus FPGA-enabled 100Gbps Network Intrusion Detection and Prevention System (github)
• Computer Architecture Seminars (CALCM)
• Advice for ECE undergrads.
