Research Impact and Honors

I am going to be shamelessly boastful :-)

Listed in the ISCA Hall of Fame.
30-year record of four ISCA papers in a single year (in 2003). Jack Lipovski is the only other person to have had four papers in one ISCA back in 1973 when the first ISCA was held.
ISCA 2003 paper "Transient-Fault Recovery for Chip Multiprocessors" selected as one of IEEE Micro's Top Ten papers "most relevant to industry and significant in contribution to the field of computer architecture" in 2003.
ISCA 1999 paper "Is SC + ILP = RC?" shows one way to settle a decade-long debate on memory consistency models in the architecture community, and is included in the Readings in Computer Architecture.
NSF CAREER award in 1999.
ISCA 1997 paper "Dynamic Speculation and Synchronization of Data Dependences"
ISCA 1995 paper "Multiscalar Processors" introduced the concept of speculative multithreading and several projects including Stanford Hydra, Illinois IA-COMA TLS, and CMU Stampede have built on Multiscalar. This paper was selected in the 25 years of ISCA - selected papers.
Program Committee Member for MICRO 2003, ISCA 2004, MICRO 2004, and HPCA 2005.
Member on NSF panels, and ISCA 2000 panel on "Slow wires, hot Chips, and leaky transistors: New Challenges for the new millennium".
Invited talks at IBM Austin, TX (1996), Compaq Alpha group (1999), Motorola (1999), Intel Microprocessor Research Lab (2001), UW-Madison (2001), CMU (2002), USC (2003), IBM T. J. Watson Research (2003), NCSU (2004).
