UT ECE professor Vijay Janapa Reddi has been awarded a National Science Foundation (NSF) Grant entitled Feedback-Driven Resiliency for Near-Threshold Systems.
The University of Texas at Austin’s Solar Vehicles Team, a volunteer student-run organization that represents the university at international solar car competitions, will be the local university host for the Formula Sun Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas from June 24-29th.
Recent UT ECE PhD graduate Karthik Ganesan was awarded an Honorable Mention by The Research Group of the Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC) for work on the topic “Automatic Generation of Synthetic Workloads for Multicore Systems”. Karthik recently received a PhD from Prof. Lizy John.
UT ECE professor Deji Akinwande and his research group have made a breakthrough with state-of-the-art flexible graphene field-effect transistors with record current densities and the highest power and conversion gain ever. The transistors also show near symmetric electron and hole transport, are the most mechanically robust flexible graphene devices fabricated to date and can be immersed in a liquid without coming to any harm.
Professor Nan Sun of UT ECE was awarded an NSF CAREER award for his work on Combining Nuclear Magnetic Resonance with Integrated Circuit Technology. The Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program is a Foundation-wide activity that offers the National Science Foundation's most prestigious awards in support of junior faculty who exemplify the role of teacher-scholars through outstanding research, excellent education and the integration of education and research within the context of the mission of their organizations.
Professor Yale Patt, his PhD students Khubaib, Hashemi and former studentSuleman, and Intel engineer Chris Wilkerson have received the Best PaperAward at the 45th annual IEEE/ACM Symposium on Microarchitecture(aka Micro-45), held in Vancouver, BC in December, 2012. Micro is consideredthe flagship conference in the field of microarchitecture and one of the toptwo conferences in computer architecture.
The EURECA program has received a $340,000 grant from the National Science Foundation to continue its mission to provide research experiences for undergraduates in the area of Communications, Networks and Systems.
EURECA was created seven years ago by UT ECE professors Sriram Vishwanath and Bill Bard and hosts 10-15 undergraduates to work on research projects over the summer.
UT ECE junior Mark Anthony Coleman has been selected as one of 25 to participate in The Ronald E. McNair Scholars Program at The University of Texas at Austin. This federally funded program’s goal is to increase the number of students in doctoral degree programs who are low-income and first-generation undergraduates or students who come from groups underrepresented in graduate education, particularly African American and Hispanic/Latino students.

Dr. Christine Julien and the Mobile and Pervasive Computing Group, along with collaborators, are working on redefining search based on locality though Personalized Networked Spaces. “In the future you might want to search very new information from the physical environment,” says Jonas Michel, a researcher working on the Gander project. “Your information needs are very localized to that place and event and moment.”
