Congratulations to Nam Sung Kim and Shimeng Yu for receiving the 2023\u00a0<\/a>Outstanding\u00a0Research Award from Intel<\/a>!<\/span><\/p>

Professor Nam Sung Kim, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, USA<\/strong>
Rethinking Communication Infrastructure for Edge and Cloud Applications<\/em><\/p>

Prof. Kim and his team of researchers have been conducting advanced system innovations that promote new technologies on Intel architecture platforms to enhance various data center workloads, including AI, machine learning\u00a0(ML), and key-value store to optimize data center operations. In this project, his team has been instrumental in developing several cutting-edge technologies using Intel processors and field-programmable gate arrays\u00a0(FPGAs) that showcased the feasibility and improvements of new processor and platform features for future data center architecture. The project had a great impact on the associated academic research directions and produced multiple top conference publications and technology available to the community.<\/p>

Professor Shimeng Yu, Georgia Institute of Technology, USA<\/strong>
Simulation of Probabilistic Learning Ecosystems<\/em><\/p>

Modern computer hardware is primarily based upon determinist zeros and ones, while various phenomena in nature manifest a probabilistic behavior. This project leverages conventional and emerging technologies and novel hardware-software co-design for pathfinding of super energy-efficient probabilistic hardware for computation with robustness. The team prototyped scalable designs not only for Bayesian deep neural networks of AI, but also for non-polynomial\u00a0(NP) hard combinatorial optimization.<\/p>
