Casen Hunger, Ph.D student at Texas ECE along with Prof. Mohit Tiwari, Assistant Professor at ECE department at The University of Texas at Austin (UT) recently co-founded Privasera, an Austin based company. The startup provides privacy and security services to app creators and users.

Patt’s talk, titled, ‘If Moore's Law Does in Fact End, Whose Job Is It to Pick Up the Slack?... And How?’ was in line with the theme of the conference, ‘Connected World: New Challenges for Data, Systems, and Applications’.  IEEE CS was celebrating the 40th anniversary of this conference this year.

Prof. Alù received the Mathematics and Physical Sciences-Simons Investigators in Physics award. His work on the manipulation of light in artificial materials and metamaterials has shown how clever designs may surpass what had previously been thought to be limitations on wave propagation in materials.

To help mobile device users maximize their limited battery storage, electrical and computer engineering professor Vijay Janapa Reddi and graduate student Yuhao Zhu have developed what they are calling “GreenWeb."

Prof. Ray Chen was invited to give an invited technology transfer tutorial entitled “Silicon Nanomembranes for Sensing Applications” in the 2016 Optical Society (OSA) Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics Technology (CLEO) Transfer Program, which was held in the San Jose Convention Center early June. The talk was a summary of Prof.

Prof. Janapa Reddi received this honor  "in recognition for outstanding contributions to the field of electrical and computer engineering and presentation of his lecture on energy efficiency and mobile computing." 
 

The paper titled, “Accurate Phase-Level Cross-Platform Power and Performance Estimation” received the honor at the leading conference in electronic design automation (EDA).

He along with 31 national finalists will be competing for three spots as the 2016 National Laureates.

Prof. Vijay Janapa Reddi was awarded the 2016 IEEE TCCA Young Computer Architect Award in recognition of outstanding research contributions in mobile computing and resilient architectures.

The award recognizes the paper titled, ‘Multi-Type Activity Recognition in Robot-Centric Scenario’, which he co-authored with Dr. Ilaria Gori, Dr. Larry Matthies, and Dr. Michael  Ryoo.
