Research Directions (+)

CAPPLabComputer Architecture

Funding is very limited, very competitive

Embedded (including FPGA) Systems Funding is very limited, very competitive

Parallel Computing Funding is very limited, very competitive

Heterogeneous Parallel Concurrent Distributed Systems Sensing, communicating, monitoring, controlling Collaboration among many disciplines Many applications! Many funding opportunities!!
