Research Areas
The department is engaged in four broad overlapping areas of research:
Theoretical
and experimental research in: Fault-tolerant computing, digital system
testing, computer architecture, computer-aided design, parallel processing,
video signal processing architectures, neural computing, computer security,
multimedia, high-level synthesis, hardware-software cosynthesis, low-power
design, performance evaluation, embedded computational systems, and biological
computing.
Faculty active in these research areas:
Niraj K. Jha,
Sun-Yuan Kung,
Ruby B. Lee,
Sharad Malik,
Margaret R. Martonosi,
Naveen Verma.
Theoretical and experimental research in: Solid-state electronics, solid-state physics,
physical electronics, electronic materials, and the physical aspects of
electronic technology in general.
Faculty active in these research areas:
Ravindra N. Bhatt,
Stephen Y. Chou,
Andrew Houck,,
Antoine Kahn,
Stephen A. Lyon,
Paul R. Prucnal,
Mansour Shayegan,
James C. Sturm,
Daniel C. Tsui,
Sigurd Wagner.
Theoretical
and experimental research in: Communication networks, wireless communications,
information theory, wireless multimedia, signal and image processing, multiresolution
signal analysis, video coding, and adaptive and learning systems. Research
is oriented toward theoretical work in conjunction with the use of computers
for system simulation and optimization. See profiles of some of our ISS
alumni.
Faculty active in these research areas:
Mung Chiang,
Paul Cuff,
Bradley Dickinson,
Sanjeev Kulkarni,
Bede Liu,
H. Vincent Poor,
Peter Ramadge,
Sergio Verdu.
Theoretical
and experimental research in: optical communications, optoelectronic devices,
nonlinear optics, and optical systems design, with applications to optical
networks, telecommunications systems, and multiprocessor interconnects.
Projects range from areas such as photonic device (for example, lasers
and detectors) fabrication and characterization, ultrafast nonlinear spectroscopy,
photonic switching, spatial and temporal solitons, broadband optical networks,
optical computing, and smart pixels.
