Unmistakably, there is a parallel between the world of sports and networks of excellence. The athletes meet each other regu- larly at specialized events, they are competitors for the same scarce resources, but at the same time many of them are friends. They belong to the very best in their field, they try to promote their field, and they are constantly looking for new talent. Koen De Bosschere Then there is the Olympic motto: there is the HiPEAC Conference in new innovative products, how to citius, altius, fortius – faster, higher, January 2009, in Paphos, Cyprus.

  • CECS Seminar
    CECS CENTER FOR EMBEDDED & CYBER-PHYSICAL SYSTEMS UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA · IRVINE CECS Seminar “Are There Any Questions?” Yale Patt Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at University of Texas Thursday, June 7th 2:00 p.m.- 3:00 p.m. Engineering Hall 2430 Abstract: Too many seminars can be characterized as 50 minutes of lecture, followed by 5 minutes of questions. ...and the first question makes it clear that nothing the speaker said in the 50 minutes was at all interesting to the audience. So, we will take the opposite approach: 5 minutes of lecture, followed by 50 minutes of questions. 5 minutes of lecture just to set the tone. Where the questions will take us is anybody's guess. It will probably have something to do with computer architecture, historical or current, but it may venture off into something political ...or at least politically correct. Biography: Yale Patt is a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering and the Ernest Cockrell, Jr. Centennial Chair in Engineering at The University of Texas at Austin. He divides his time between teaching the freshman and senior courses and his advanced graduate course in microarchitecture, working with his PhD students, and consulting in the microprocessor industry. He earned obligatory degrees from reputable universities and has received more than his share of awards for his research and teaching. Patt has spent much of his career pursuring aggressive ILP, out-of-order, and speculative computer architectures, such as HPSm. He has a Fellow of both the IEEE and ACM, and a member of the National Academy of Engineering.

  • Dis Lect. for Cs 2002
    Distinguished Lecture Series in Computer Science Monday, April 22, 2002 YaleYale Patt,Patt, Ph.D.Ph.D. Yale Patt is professor of electrical and computer engineering and the Ernest Cockrell, Jr., Centennial Chair in Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin. He enjoys teaching the freshmen to the graduate school level students, and directing the research of nine Ph.D. students in high performance computer implementation. He has, for more than 30 years, combined an active research program with extensive consulting and a strong commitment to teaching. The focus of his research is generally five to 10 years beyond what industry provides at that point in time. His rationale has always been that he does not do revenue shipments, preferring to produce knowledge that will be useful to future revenue shipments and, more importantly, graduates who will design those future products. Yale Patt earned his B.S. at Northeastern University and his M.S. and Ph.D. at Stanford University, all in electrical engineering. He received the 1995 IEEE Emannuel R. Piore Medal “for contributions to computer architecture leading to commercially viable high performance microprocessors,” the 1996 IEEE/ACM Eckert-Mauchly Award “for important contributions to instruction level parallelism and superscalar processor design,” and the 1999 IEEE Wallace W. McDowell Award “for your impact on the high performance microprocessor industry via a combination of important contributions to both engineering and education.” He is a fellow of both the IEEE and the ACM. For his teaching, he has received several awards, most notably the ACM Karl V. Karlstrom Outstanding Educator Award for 2000.

  • Requirements, Bottlenecks, and Good Fortune: Agents for Microprocessor Evolution
    Requirements, Bottlenecks, and Good Fortune: Agents for Microprocessor Evolution YALE PATT, FELLOW, IEEE Invited Paper The first microprocessor, the Intel 4004, showed up in 1971. It contained 2300 transistors and operated at a clock frequency of 108 kHz. Today, 30 years later, the microprocessor contains almost 200 million transistors, operating at a frequency of more than 1 GHz. In five years, those numbers are expected to grow to more than a billion transistors on a single chip, operating at a clock frequency of from 6 to 10 GHz. The evolution of the microprocessor, from where it started in 1971 to where it is today and where it is likely to be in five years, has come about because of several contributing forces. Our position is that this evolution did not just happen, that each step forward came as a result of one of three things, and always within the context of a computer architect making tradeoffs. The three things are: 1) new requirements; 2) bottlenecks; and 3) good fortune. I call them Fig. 1. The microprocessor today. collectively agents for evolution.
