Daqing Piao received his B.S. in
Physics from Tsinghua University in Beijing, China in 1990, M.S. in
Biomedical Engineering in 2001, and Ph.D in Biomedical Engineering in
2003, both from University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT. Before he pursued
graduate study, he had been employed as an MRI engineer from 1990 to
1994 at Guangdong Weida Medical Apparatus Corporation (Guangdong,
China), and as an R&D engineer/ program manager from 1994 to 1999 at
Shanghai Kanglian Medical Engineering Co. Ltd (Shanghai, China). fter
his Ph.D., he received post-doctoral training at University of
Connecticut from 2003 to 2004, and worked as Research Associate at
Dartmouth College from 2004 to 2005. Daqing Piao is the recipient of the
Guanghua Prize from Tsinghua Univeristy in 1989, Outstanding Engineer
from Guangdong Weida Corp in 1993, Pre-doctoral Traineeship Award from
Department of Defense in 2002, and the Best PhD Thesis Award of UCONN
Engineering School in 2003. His research area is in biomedical optical
imaging, with specilization on endoscopic optical tomography for
accurate selective biopy of cancer.

Sohum Sohoni’s research interests are
broadly in the area of computer architecture and performance analysis.
His primary field of research is the cache memory performance of
memory-intensive applications. Besides mainstream cache memory systems,
his research spans distributed systems, multimedia applications and low
power architectures for general-purpose and embedded systems. He is
highly interested in the development of graphical visualization tools
for classroom and laboratory instruction, and believes that classroom
instruction needs to incorporate the presentation techniques of today,
as well as new teaching methodologies such as case studies and team
learning.
Dr. Sohoni has published in highly ranked peer-reviewed conferences and
journals such as ACM SIGMETRICS and the IEEE Transactions on Computers,
and has won numerous awards as a graduate student, including the URC
graduate student summer fellowship in 2002 and 2003. He received his PhD
in computer engineering from the University of Cincinnati in 2004 and
his bachelors in electrical engineering from Pune University in 1998.

James E. Stine received the Ph.D.
degree in Electrical Engineering from Lehigh University in 2000. From
1999 to 2005, he was an assistant and associate professor at Illinois
Institute of Technology, where he directed the VLSI Computer
Architecture, Arithmetic and CAD Research Laboratory. He is currently
an associate professor in the Electrical and Computer Engineering
Department, College of Engineering, Architecture and Technology at
Oklahoma State University. Dr. Stine specializes in research and
teaching in VLSI, computer arithmetic, computer system architecture, and
digital design. His research contributions have been extensively
published in journals and conference proceedings. He is the author of
two monographs in the area of computer arithmetic. Dr. Stine has been
involved in organizing the IEEE Euromicro Symposium on Digital Symposium
and the ACM Great Lakes Symposium on VLSI, as well as serving on the
technical program committees for several high-profile conferences on
VLSI and processor design. He is a member of the ACM, the IEEE Computer
Society, and a Senior Member of the IEEE. |
