Research: Prof. ShrivastavaÕs main theme of research in on making programming simple for embedded and cyber-physical systems. Prof. Shrivastava and his students have proposed novel computer architectures and compiler transformations for hardware error-tolerant computing, multicore computing, accelerated computing. They have also proposed languages, code generation and runtime for expressing and efficiently executing time-sensitive distributed intelligent applications.

Prof. Shrivastava has co-authored 1 book, and has contributed chapters in 4 books. He has more than 120 articles and conference papers in top embedded system journals and conferences, like DAC, ESWEEK, ACM TECS, and ACM TCPS. His papers have received several awards, including nomination for best paper at DAC 2017, best student paper award at VLSI 2016, second highest ranked paper at LCTES 2010, and best paper candidate ASPDAC 2008. He published at least one paper every year at DAC (the top conference in the field) in the last decade (2011 to 2019). Overall, his works have received more than 3000 citations, growing at the rate of over 200 citations every year. His i50-index is 14, i10-index is 84, and h-index is 31 (reference Google Scholar). His inventions have been granted 5 patents, and 5 more applications are pending. Prof. Shrivastava is the recipient of the prestigious 2010 NSF CAREER award. His studentÕs theses were awarded CIDSE outstanding Ph.D. thesis award in 2021 and 2017 and outstanding MasterÕs thesis awards in 2011 and 2014. Prof. ShrivastavaÕs research efforts have been supported by federal agencies (NSF, DOE, NIST), state funding agencies (SFAZ), as well as industry. His research portfolio is about $4M to date.

Prof. Shrivastava has mentored 2 postdocs, 9 Ph.D. students, and over 20 Masters students. His students are very well placed, including a full Professor at UNIST, South Korea, Assistant Professor at SJSU, ARM research lab, Google, Synopsys, Apple (x2), Qualcomm, Cadence etc.) Prof. Shrivastava is currently supervising 3 Ph.D., and 5 Masters students. Prof. Shrivastava teaches undergraduate and graduate level courses on computer organization, computer architecture, and embedded systems, and has student evaluations averaging over 4/5. He revamped the computer organization and computer Architecture courses at ASU to shift the focus towards processor design instead of assembly language programming and included modules about modern multicore architectures. He has redesigned the embedded systems course around projects in which students build an autonomously driving car, culminating in an autonomous car race!

Prof. Shrivastava was the General Chair of 2022 Embedded Systems Week (ESWEEK), which is the top event in the field of Embedded Systems, comprising of several conferences, symposia and workshops. He also serves in the Steering committee of the Languages Compilers, Theory and tools for Embedded Systems (LCTES). Currently, he is the deputy Editor-in-Chief of IEEE Embedded Systems Letters (IEEE ESL), and associate editor for ACM Transactions of Cyber-Physical Systems (ACM TCPS), ACM Transactions Embedded Computing Systems (ACM TECS), and the IEEE Transactions on Computer Aided Design (IEEE TCAD). Previously he has served as the program chair of CODES+ISSS 2017 and 2018, LCTES 2019, and chair of the Design and Applications track of RTSS 2020.

Biography

Franco Fummi received the Laurea degree in Electronic Engineering at Politecnico di Milano in 1990 and the Ph.D.in Electronics and Communication Engineering in 1994 at Politecnico di Milano. In 1993 he was Research Assistant at the Department of Computer Science of the University of Victoria (B.C.). In 1996 he obtained the position of Assistant Professor in Computer Science at the Dipartimento di Elettronica e Informazione of Politecnico di Milano where he remained until October 1998. In July 1998 he obtained the position of Associate Professor in Computer Architecture at the Computer Science Department of Università di Verona. Since March 2001 he is Full Professor in Computer Architecture at the Computer Science Department of Università di Verona He is leading the Cyber-physical and IoT Systems Design (CISD) group of the Università di Verona, currently composed of more than 20 people and working on hardware description languages and electronic design automation methodologies for modeling, verification, testing and optimization of cyber-physical systems. The main research directions exploited by Franco Fummi are • Embedded system verification (Static verification - Dynamic verification- Semi-formal verification - Hybrid and real-time systems – Smart systems integration); Dipartimento di Informatica Strada le Grazie 15 - 37134 | T +39 045 802 7071-7069 [email protected] P. IVA 01541040232 | C.F. 93009870234 • Networked embedded systems (System/Network co-simulation - System/Network codesign - QoS-enabled design - Sensor networks and M2M systems); • Embedded systems design (TLM-RTL synthesis and abstraction - RTL-to-SW abstraction - TLM transactor generation - Device-driver generation - Embedded SW for multi/many-core systems - Middleware-based design). • Cyber-physical production systems modeling, design, and simulation. In relation to such research areas, he published more than 320 papers; three of them received the "best paper award" respectively at IEEE EURODAC'96, IEEE DATE'99 and IEEE FDL'11. He is co-founder and CTO of the EDA company EDALab (www.edalab.it), a spin-off of the Università di Verona, focused on networked embedded systems design and tools.
