Biography

Rajesh K. Gupta (F’91) received the B.Tech. degree in electrical engineering from Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, Kanpur, India, in 1984, the M.S. degree in EECS from University of California, Berkeley, Berkeley, CA, USA, in 1986, and the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from Stanford University, Stanford, CA, USA, in 1994.

He is a Qualcomm Endowed Chair Professor with the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, University of California, San Diego, San Diego, CA, USA. He was a Circuit Designer with Intel Corporation, Santa Clara, CA, USA, as a member of three successful processor design teams and on the Computer Science Faculty, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, Champaign, IL, USA and the University of California, Irvine, Irvine, CA, USA. Regardless of the title, the focus of the research has been on methods and tools to make things better, such as, more energy-efficient and reliable, or enable others (mostly, designers and architects) to do things better. To the extent a problem area requires it, there is a focus on creating usable artifacts or at least find the limits on what is achievable in practice. His past contributions include SystemC modeling and SPARK parallelizing high-level synthesis, both of which have been incorporated into industrial practice. His publications and patents cover various aspects of embedded systems design, design automation, clock design, data-path synthesis, system-on-chip modeling, and dynamic power management. He was a Lead or a Co-Lead of DARPA-sponsored efforts under the data-intensive systems and power-aware computing and communications programs on the role of adaptation in energy-efficient system architectures. His ongoing projects are focused on efficient compositional synthesis of system-chips, microelectronic variability, accurate timing, and synchronization for the integrated systems. His current research interests include embedded,cyber-physical systems, and Internet-of-Things.

Dr. Gupta was a recipient of the Best Demonstration Paper Award at ACM BuildSys’16, the Best Paper Award at IEEE/ACM DCOSS’08, and the Best Demonstration Award at IEEE/ACM IPSN/SPOTS’05 with and his students. He is a fellow of the ACM.

Rob A. Rutenbar is the Senior Vice Chancellor for Research, and provides strategic vision, leadership, and partnership expertise that helps University of Pittsburgh researchers and scholars advance their world-class research, scholarship, and innovation. He is responsible for advancing Pitt’s mission to expand the frontiers of knowledge and positively impact the world through collaborative and multidisciplinary approaches to research.

He leads five offices focused on the full breadth of the research enterprise -- from pursuing and securing sponsorships and funding, through ensuring adherence to the highest standards to research conduct, and providing cutting-edge resources to researchers, to creative collaborations that lead to successful commercialization.

Dr. Rutenbar possesses nearly 40 years of experience in innovation and technology. His research focuses on three broad categories: tools for a wide variety of integrated circuit design issues, methods for managing the statistics of nanoscale chip design, and custom computer architectures for perceptual and data analytics problems.

Prior to coming to the University of Pittsburgh, he served as the Abel Bliss Professor of Engineering and head of the Department of Computer Science at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where he oversaw a department composed of 70 faculty members and nearly 2,500 students consistently ranked as the No. 5 Computer Science program in the nation by U.S. News and World Report. Prior to assuming that position in 2010, Dr. Rutenbar held the Stephen J. Jatras Chair in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, where he served on the engineering faculty for 25 years.

As an entrepreneur, Dr. Rutenbar founded the tech firms Neolinear Inc. and Voci Technologies, Inc. in 1998 and 2006, respectively. He was the founding director for the Center for Circuit and System Solutions, a multi-university consortium that focused on next-generation chip design challenges. The recipient of 14 U.S. patent grants, his endeavors have been funded by such notable entities as AT&T, Google, DARPA, IBM, the National Science Foundation and the Pennsylvania Infrastructure Technology Alliance. Dr. Rutenbar is the author of eight books and 175 published research articles.

In recognition of his career accomplishments, Dr. Rutenbar was elected a fellow of both the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). He is a winner of the Semiconductor Research Corporation’s Aristotle Award, given in recognition of the impact of his students on the U.S. semiconductor industry, and the IEEE CEDA/ESDA Phil Kaufman Award, for his lifetime contributions to tools for chip design. He was also recognized with distinguished alumnus awards from both the University of Michigan and Wayne State University. Dr. Rutenbar is also among the top scientists to be elected both as an American Association for the Advancement of Science Fellow and as a National Academy of Inventors (NAI) Fellow. Election to NAI Fellow is the highest professional distinction for academic inventors.

In addition to his research career, Dr. Rutenbar is also a committed educator. He led efforts at Illinois to explore massive, open online courses (MOOCs) and launched the first MOOC on chip design tools.
