My
research interests are in computer architecture and high performance
computing, especially in finding ways to accelerate applications not
optimally served directly by commercial off-the-shelf solutions. This has led
me to fascinating domains such as computer vision, weather and climate
modeling, bioinformatics, computational biology, and computational
electrodynamics. Early on I concentrated
on ASIC-based solutions (e.g., with the IUA project); later, on switching
fabrics for connecting off-the-shelf components or IP; and most recently on
using the incredible, but largely untapped, computation capabilities of
Graphics Processors (GPUs) and configurable circuits (FPGAs). Always critical to my research has been
programmability -- at various times this has led to work in portable programming
languages. Lately I've been interested
in low-latency interconnects, especially among the accelerators themselves; in
thermal and power aware application development; and in HPC in the Cloud. |
