Wen-mei Hwu is a professor and the Sanders-AMD Endowed Chair of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign. His research interests include architecture and compilation for parallel- computing systems. He has a BS in electrical engineering from National Taiwan University, and a PhD in computer science from the University of California, Berkeley. He is a Fellow of both the IEEE and the ACM.
Kurt Keutzer is a professor of electrical engineering and computer science at the University of California, Berkeley and a principal investigator in UC Berkeley’s Universal Parallel Computing Research Center. His research focuses on the design and programming of ICs. He has a BS in mathematics from Maharishi International University, and an MS a PhD in computer science from Indiana University, Bloomington. He is a Fellow of the IEEE and a member of the ACM.
Timothy G. Mattson is a principal engineer in the Applications Research Laboratory at Intel. He research inter- ests focus on performance modeling for future multicore microprocessors and how different programming models map onto these systems. He has a BS in chemistry from the University of California, Riverside; an MS in chemistry from the university of California, Santa Cruz; and a PhD in theoretical chemistry from the University of California, Santa Cruz. He is a member of the American Association for the Advancement of Sci- ence (AAAS).
