Power-Efficient Computer Architectures / Synthesis Lectures on Computer Architecture (PDF)

Magnus Sjalander is a Research Associate at Uppsala University. He received both his Ph.D. degree (2008) and Lic.Eng. degree (2006) in Computer Engineering from Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden. He has been a visiting researcher at NXP Semiconductors, worked at Aeroflex Gaisler, been a post-doctoral researcher at Chalmers University of Technology, and a research scientist at Florida State University. Sjalander's research interests include energy-efficient computing, high-performance and low-power digital circuits, micro-architecture and memory-system design, and hardware-software interaction.Margaret Martonosi is the Hugh Trumbull Adams '35 Professor of Computer Science at Princeton University, where she has been on the faculty since 1994. She also holds an affiliated faculty appointment in Princeton EE. Martonosi's research interests are in computer architecture and mobile computing, with particular focus on power-efficient systems. Her work has included the development of the Wattch power modeling tool and the Princeton ZebraNet mobile sensor network project for the design and real-world deployment of zebra tracking collars in Kenya. Her current research focuses on hardware-software interface approaches to manage heterogeneous parallelism and power-performance tradeoffs in systems ranging from smartphones to chip multiprocessors to large-scale data centers. Martonosi is a Fellow of both IEEE and ACM. She was the 2013 recipient of the Anita Borg Institute Technical Leadership Award. She has also received the 2013 NCWIT Undergraduate Research Mentoring Award and the 2010 Princeton University Graduate Mentoring Award. In addition to many archival publications, Martonosi is an inventor on six granted US patents, and has co-authored a technical reference book on power-aware computer architecture. She serves on the Board of Directors of the Computing Research Association (CRA). Martonosi completed her Ph.D. at Stanford University, and also holds a Master's
