  ECE Seminar: Nathaniel Bleier "Sub-cent Processors, Earable Computers, and Space Microdatacenters: Novel Computer Systems for Truly Ubiquitous Computing"

  Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE)

  11:00 AM L440, Technological Institute

  EVENT DETAILS

  Nathaniel “Nate” Bleier is a PhD candidate advised by Rakesh Kumar at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. His research interests are in computer systems and architecture, and system-level design automation with a focus on designs and prototypes which extend the reach of computing to new domains.
  
  Nathaniel is interested in extending the reach of computing to new applications and domains whose constraints are not met by traditional computing platforms. This talk will focus on architectures, systems, and chips for three such domains. First, he will discuss the computer chips he had designed, taped out, and tested in flexible electronics for applications with conformality, thinness, and cost constraints that cannot be met by silicon chips. Second, he will discuss the novel architectures for earable and olfactory computing platforms that he believes will drive a large class of new and important computing applications in the future. Third, Natahniel will discuss computer systems for in-space computing – he believes that space is going to be a new and increasingly important frontier of computing.

  Efficient Machine Learning and Optimization

  Department of Computer Science (CS)

  8:30 AM 3514, Mudd Hall ( formerly Seeley G. Mudd Library)

  EVENT DETAILSmore info

  This workshop will bring together researchers and practitioners to discuss recent advances in energy-efficient machine learning (ML). As ML models grow in scale and complexity, optimizing their energy consumption has become a critical research challenge. Topics will include model compression, quantization, hardware-aware neural architectures, sustainable AI frameworks, and energy-efficient inference techniques. The workshop will feature invited talks and ample time for networking.
