RACER: A Technology-Agnostic Processing-Using-Memory Architecture

Prof. Saugata Ghose, Assistant Professor, Siebel School of Computing and Data Science, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign

Biography

Prof Saugata Ghose is an assistant professor in the Siebel School of Computing and Data Science at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, working broadly in the area of computer architecture. He holds affiliate appointments in the Coordinated Science Laboratory and in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Illinois. He leads the ARCANA Research Group (ARCANA Research Group Logo), where they explore several aspects of designing data-centric computer architectures and systems. He is particularly interested in processing-in-memory, introducing interactions between different levels of the compute stack that allow the levels to cooperate with each other, and architectures for emerging platforms and application domains. Prior to joining Illinois, he was a postdoc and then a systems scientist in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at CMU, working in the SAFARI Research Group. Before moving to CMU, he was a graduate student in the M3 Architecture Group, which is part of the Computer Systems Laboratory at Cornell University. At Cornell, he designed efficient, high-performance memory systems for multicore architectures.
