Education

Research Interests
  • Data Flow Architectures
  • Hardware for Ray Tracing algorithms
  • Asynchrony in Computer Processor Architecture
  • Asynchronous VLSI Circuits
  • I was involved in developing CMOS standard cell libraries for use with the Cadence and Synopsys CAD tool sets. A few classes use these libraries at University of Utah — CS6710: Digital VLSI Design & CS6830: VLSI Architecture

Employment and Experience
Design Engineer - Intel Corporation [Jan 2007 - current]

Graduate Intern - Technology Integration Group, Intel Corporation [May 2007 - Jan 2007]
  • Developed a fully automated timing correlation utility (delay, setup/hold time) for Quality Analysis of standard cell libraries (perl and tcl).
  • Developed a tool which compares characterization data from various data sources (standard cell libraries and several in-house tool reports) and displays results in graphical format (perl and gnuplot).
Graduate Intern - CT Labs, Intel Corporation [Jan 2006 - May 2006]
  • Worked on a next generation Ethernet controller prototype.
  • RTL (VHDL) code writing, debug and validation both in the simulation test environment.
  • Built a random test generation validation environment for validating the RTL using Specman e language.
  • Debug and validation of the FPGA prototype.
Research Assistant - School of Computing, University of Utah [Summer 2003 - Summer 2007]
  • Working on the dataflow architecture approach for raytracing hardware
  • Working on optimizing multiprocessor architectures for efficient implementation of ray-tracing algorithms
  • Built VLSI circuit systems which were used as comparable examples with the ARCS - an architectural level asynchronous communication event based simulator
  • External support for the course VLSI Architecture
  • External support for the course Digital VLSI Design
University Teaching Assistant (UTA) - School of Computing, University of Utah [Summer 2004 - Spring 2005]
  • Awarded the UTA grant for the year 2004-2005
  • Developed CMOS Standard Cell Libraries for use with the Cadence and Synopsys tool sets. These libraries are being used in classes at University of Utah - Digital VLSI Design and VLSI Architecture
  • External support for the course VLSI Architecture
