SUMMARY:Mohammad Ali Ghodrat\, Tony Givargis\, and Alex Nicolau win Best Paper Award for CASES 2008
DESCRIPTION:Mohammad Ali Ghodrat\, Tony Givargis\, and Alex Nicolau recently received the Best Paper Award for CASES 2008 for their “Control Flow Optimization in Loops Using Interval Analysis.” Congratulations!\nAbstract of Paper: \nThe work presents a novel loop transformation technique\, particularly well suited for optimizing embedded compilers\, where an increase in compilation time is acceptable in exchange for significant performance increase. The transformation technique optimizes loops containing nested conditional blocks. Specifically\, the transformation takes advantage of the fact that the Boolean value of the conditional expression\, determining the true/false paths\, can be statically analyzed using a novel interval analysis technique that can evaluate conditional expressions in the general polynomial form. Results from interval analysis combined with loop dependency information is used to partition the iteration space of the nested loop. In such cases\, the loop nest is decomposed such as to eliminate the conditional test\, thus substantially reducing the execution time. Our technique completely eliminates the conditional from the loops (unlike previous techniques) thus further facilitating the application of other optimizations and improving the overall speedup. Applying the proposed transformation technique on loop kernels taken from Mediabench\, SPEC- 2000\, mpeg4\, qsdpcm and gimp\, on average we measured a 175% (1.75X) improvement of execution time when running on a SPARC processor\, a 336% (4.36X) improvement of execution time when running on an Intel Core Duo processor and a 198.9% (2.98X) improvement of execution time when running on a PowerPC G5 processor. The CASES conference provides a forum for emerging technology in embedded computing systems\, with an emphasis on compilers and architectures for embedded systems. CASES is a common forum for researchers with an interest in embedded systems to reach across vertically integrated communities and to promote synergies. As evident from the past CASES meetings\, several emerging applications are critically dependent on these interactions for their sustained growth and evolution (from http:// thedude.cc.gt.atl.ga.us/conferences/cases/).

SUMMARY:CECS Researchers Receive Best Paper Award at IJCNN 2009
DESCRIPTION:The paper “Efficient Simulation of Large-Scale Spiking Neural Networks Using CUDA Graphics Processors” authored by Jayram Moornikara\, Nikil Dutt\, Jeffrey Krichmar\, Alex Nicolau\, and Alex Veidenbaum was recognized with a Best Paper Award at the 2009 International Joint Conference on Neural Networks (IJCNN 2009).\nIJCNN is the premier international conference in the area of neural networks theory\, analysis and applications. The paper describes new techniques for parallelization of spiking neural network models of the brain and their efficient realization on emerging graphics processor platforms. This will enable close-to-real-time simulation of realistic networks of nerve cells and could have many practical applications. The work is a result of interdisciplinary collaboration between CECS researchers in computer science (PhD student Moornikara and Professors Dutt\, Nicolau and Veidenbaum) and cognitive science (Professor Krichmar).

SUMMARY:EDAA Lifetime Achievement Award 2010 goes to Daniel D. Gajski
DESCRIPTION:Adapted from EDAA Press Release:The EDAA Lifetime Achievement Award 2010 goes to Daniel D. Gajski. \nThe Lifetime Achievement Award is given to individuals who made outstanding contributions to the state of the art in electronic design\, automation and testing of electronic systems in their life. In order to be eligible\, candidates must have made innovative contributions which had an impact on the way electronic systems are being designed. \nUCI Vice Chancellor for Research Susan Bryant congratulates Professor Gajski for this outstanding achievement: “His establishment and leadership of the Center for Embedded Computer Systems as a campus Organized Research Unit reflects the world-class research being undertaken at UCI.  We look forward to the continued success and world-wide recognition of Dr. Gajski and the Center for Embedded Computer Systems.“ \nPast recipients have been Kurt Antreich (2003)\, Hugo De Man (2004)\, Jochen Jess (2005)\, Robert Brayton (2006)\, Tom W. Williams (2007)\, Ernest S. Kuh (2008) and Jan M. Rabaey (2009). The Award will be presented at the plenary session of the 2010 DATE Conference\, to be held 8-12 March in Dresden\, Germany. \nDaniel D. Gajski received the Dipl. Ing. and M.S. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the University of Zagreb\, Croatia\, and the Ph.D. degree in Computer and Information Sciences from the University of Pennsylvania\, Philadelphia\, in 1974. After 10 years of industrial experience in digital circuits\, supercomputing\, and VLSI design\, he spent 10 years in academia with the Department of Computer Science at the University of Illinois\, Urbana-Champaign. Presently\, he is a Full Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of California\, Irvine. He holds the Henry Samueli Endowed Chair in Computer System Design and is the Director of the Center for Embedded Computer Systems at UCI. \nDaniel Gajski has made many fundamental contributions to areas spanning from electronic design automation to embedded systems. He is considered among the founding fathers of the push in electronic design methods towards higher levels of abstractions and their relationship to system architectures and has been a leader in establishing the fields of Silicon Compilation\, High-Level Synthesis\, and System-Level Design. \nDaniel Gajski has published over 250 journal and conference papers\, has edited\, authored and co-authored a total of seven books and numerous book chapters\, and has received several best-paper awards and nominations. He has been named an IEEE Fellow for contributions to VLSI design\, system-level design methodologies and CAD tools and also has been presented with an honorary doctorate from the University of Oldenburg\, Germany\, in 2006 in recognition of his contributions in the areas of embedded systems and design science. \nMore information and electronic version of this Press Release available at: http://www.edaa.com/
