各位學弟妹大家好，我是B95的學姊，現在在美國念CS博士班
我的指導教授剛好要在台大給一個關於現有運算平台所面臨的困境和未來趨勢的演講，
並請我代為宣傳
演講結束後還會有一個關於美國研究所申請的座談會，將以Q&A的形式進行
希望有興趣的學弟妹踴躍參加，謝謝
演講主題：Future Computing Platforms: Challenges and Opportunities
時間：2013/01/04 (五) 下午2:20
地點：CSIE R103
主講人：Prof. David Brooks, Harvard University
Prof. David Brooks 於演講後, 會在CSIE106舉行 "申請美國研究所Q&A座談"
(4PM to 5PM), 歡迎有興趣的同學參加
Abstract:
The invention of the microprocessor 40 years ago started a transformation to
the ubiquitous computing environment that we live in today. The steady
technological progress that enabled this transformation has slowed in the past
several years due to power constraints and limits of underlying device
physics.
This talk explores the intersection of trends in fabrication technology,
software design, processor architecture, and computing industry economics to
postulate about directions of future computing platforms.
Biography:
David Brooks is a Gordon McKay Professor of Computer Science in the School of
Engineering and Applied Sciences at Harvard University. He joined Harvard in
2002 after spending one year as a research staff member at IBM T.J. Watson
Research Center. Prof. Brooks received his BS in Electrical Engineering at the
University of Southern California and MA and PhD degrees in Electrical
Engineering at Princeton University. His research interests include
technology-aware computer design, with an emphasis on power-efficient computer
architectures and system software for high-performance and embedded systems.
