Computer Architecture Group
Our group's mission is to conduct fundamental research in computer architecture and hardware/software interaction. We explore novel architectural techniques to improve the performance, efficiency, dependability, and scalability of processor architectures and the software running on them. We are especially interested in understanding and improving the interactions between hardware and software.
