Three faculty inducted into MICRO Hall of Fame

Three CSE faculty have been inducted into the IEEE/ACM MICRO Hall of Fame, an honor given to outstanding researchers with eight or more papers presented at the International Symposium on Microarchitecture (MICRO). The symposium is organized by the Association for Computing Machinery Special Interest Group on Microarchitecture, SIGMICRO, whose members include researchers and practitioners of computer architecture, microarchitecture and compilers.

MICRO is the flagship conference for microprocessor architecture and one of the top-tier computer architecture conferences. Technology presented at MICRO has been incorporated into modern microprocessors over the past fifty years. 

Inductees from CSE include Profs. Jason Mars, Lingjia Tang, and Thomas Wenisch. Mars’ and Tang’s work has centered on building systems that enable new computing applications, including conversational AI systems, at scale. Wenisch has focused on multiprocessor and multicore systems and performance methodology.
