Hyeran Jeon is an Assistant Professor at the University of California Merced. Her research interests lie in energy-efficient high-throughput processor and systems design. She earned her Ph.D. at the University of Southern California in 2015. She spent her summer at IBM T.J. Watson Research Center and the fall at AMD Research as a research intern in 2012. Before pursuing her Ph.D., she worked as a systems software engineer at Samsung Electronics, Korea from 2002 to 2009. Hyeran obtained her M.S. from Georgia Institute of Technology and Korea University in 2008, and B.S. from Pusan National University, Korea in 2002.

Shuang Chen is a third-year Ph.D. student in the Computer Systems Lab at Cornell University, advised by Prof. José F. Martínez and Prof. Christina Delimitrou. She is generally interested in computer architecture and systems, with a focus on datacenters and architectural support for emerging memory technologies.

My research interests lie in field-programmable technology and electronic design automation, with increasing focus on the hardware security vulnerabilities of today’s heterogeneous and intelligent computing systems.

Bahar Asgari is an assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Maryland, Collage Park with a joint appointment in UMIACS. Before joining UMD in August 2022, she spent a year working at Google on its Systems and Services Infrastructure team. She received her Ph.D. in electrical and computer engineering from Georgia Tech in 2021, where she was advised by Dr. Sudhakar Yalamanchili and Dr. Hyesoon Kim. Bahar’s research interests include but are not limited to domain-specific architecture design, near memory processing, and reconfigurable computing. Her proposed low-cost hardware accelerators and hardware/software co-optimization that deal with essential challenges of sparse problems contribute to a widespread application domain from machine learning to scientific computing.
