Hi, I am Nayana, a final year Ph.D. candidate at Princeton University, advised by Prof. David August. My research interests are in the field of computer architecture and hardware/software co-design, with more focus on performance improvement at the Datacenter scale. I interned for two consecutive summers with Google Wide Profiling team at Google. Before joining Princeton, I was working as a Verification Engineer at AMD, Bangalore, India.

Sandhya Dwarkadas is the Walter N. Munster Professor and Chair of Computer Science at the University of Virginia. Previously, she was the Albert Arendt Hopeman Professor of Engineering at the University of Rochester, where she was professor of computer science with a secondary appointment in electrical and computer engineering, and also served as department chair for 6 years. She received the 2020 Edmund A. Hajim Outstanding Faculty Award from the University of Rochester. She received her Bachelor’s degree from the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, India, and her M.S. and Ph.D. from Rice University. She is a fellow of the ACM and IEEE. She was co-chair of the CRA-WP board and steering committee from 2019-2022 and has been on the CRA-WP board since 2010.
Her areas of research interest include parallel and distributed computing, computer architecture, and the interaction and interface between the compiler, runtime/operating system, and underlying architecture. She has made fundamental contributions to the design and implementation of shared memory both in hardware and in software, and to hardware and software energy- and resource-aware configurability.

I am working with heterogeneous systems, specifically with CPU, GPU and FPGA. I am investigating the behavior of a heterogeneous node, evaluating the interaction and how it can improve the execution time and energy consumption.

Hoda Naghibijouybari is an Assistant Professor in the Computer Science Department at Binghamton University. She received her Ph.D. in computer science from the University of California, Riverside in 2020, working with Professor Nael Abu-Ghazaleh. Her primary research interests are in the area of computer architecture, and security. Her current research focuses on architecture support for security, microarchitectural attacks, GPU security, and heterogeneous systems. Her research has resulted in the discovery of new attacks that have been disclosed to GPU companies and received coverage from technical news outlets. Her paper on GPU security (published in CCS-2018) was selected for Top Picks in Hardware and Embedded Security in 2019.
