Dr. James Hoe

Biography

James C. Hoe is a Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University. He received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from MIT in 2000 and a B.S. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from UC Berkeley in 1992. His current research focuses on devising new FPGA architectures for power-efficient, high-performance computing. Professor Hoe's research group is working on the CoRAM application development framework that provides a virtualized FPGA execution environment and offers high-level programming abstractions for managing control sequencing and data movements. He is also further developing an FPGA runtime environment that incorporates features such as partial reconfiguration and virtualization to manage the FPGA as a dynamically sharable multitasking compute resource. He is a Fellow of the IEEE.
