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. |
