Subhasish Mitra - Biography#
Subhasish Mitra is Professor of Electrical Engineering and of Computer Science at Stanford University. He directs the Stanford Robust Systems Group, leads the Computation focus area of the Stanford SystemX Alliance, and is a faculty member of the Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute. Prof. Mitra also holds the Carnot Chair of Excellence in NanoSystems at CEA-LETI in Grenoble, France.
Prof. Mitra’s research ranges across Robust Computing, NanoSystems, Electronic Design Automation (EDA), and Neurosciences. Jointly with his students and collaborators, he demonstrated the first carbon nanotube computer. They also demonstrated the first 3D NanoSystem with computation immersed in data storage. These received wide recognition: cover of NATURE, Research Highlight to the United States Congress by the National Science Foundation, and highlight as "important, scientific breakthrough" by news organizations (BBC, Economist, EE Times, IEEE Spectrum, MIT Technology Review, National Public Radio, New York Times, Scientific American, Time, Wall Street Journal, Wired and others) around the world.
He has created many key approaches for circuit failure prediction, on-line diagnostics, QED system validation, soft error resilience, and X-Compact test compression. Their adoption by industry is growing rapidly, in market ranging from cloud computing to automotive systems and enabled billions in cost savings across the industry.
Prof. Mitra’s honors include the Newton Technical Impact Award in EDA (“test of time honor” by ACM SIGDA and IEEE CEDA), the University Researcher Award (by the Semiconductor Industry Association and Semiconductor Research Corporation to recognize lifetime research contributions), the Intel Achievement Award (Intel’s highest honor), and the United States Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers from the White House. With his students he published many award-winning papers. He is a Fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
