We're thrilled to announce Prof. Onur Mutlu as our confirmed keynote speaker.
Onur Mutlu is a Professor of ECE/CS at NYU and a Professor of Computer Science at ETH Zurich. He previously held the William D. and Nancy W. Strecker Early Career Professorship at Carnegie Mellon University. His research interests are in computer architecture, computing systems, hardware security, memory & storage systems, and bioinformatics, with a major focus on designing fundamentally energy-efficient, high-performance, and robust computing systems. He started the Computer Architecture Group at Microsoft Research (2006-2009), and held product, research and visiting positions at Intel Corporation, Advanced Micro Devices, VMware, Google, and Stanford University. He received various honors for his research, including the 2025 IEEE Computer Society Harry H. Goode Memorial Award “for seminal contributions to computer architecture research and practice, especially in memory systems.” He is an AAAS Fellow, ACM Fellow, IEEE Fellow, and an elected member of the Academy of Europe. He enjoys teaching, mentoring, and enabling & democratizing access to high-quality research and education. He has supervised 27 PhD graduates, many of whom received major dissertation awards, 20 postdoctoral trainees, and more than 70 Master’s and Bachelor’s students. His computer architecture and digital logic design course lectures and materials are freely available on YouTube and his research group makes a wide variety of artifacts freely available online.
