I'm Diman Zad-Tootaghaj, I am a postdoc/researcher at Hewlett Packard Labs in Palo Alto, California. I work on Software-Defined Network solutions in Wide Area Networks (SD-WAN).

I earned my PhD in Computer Science and Engineering at Pennsylvania State University. Prior to Penn State, I got my B.Sc degree in Electrical Engineering at Sharif University of Technology, Iran. During my PhD, I was working in the Institute for Networking and Security Research (INSR) and Network Sciences Research Group (NSRG) under supervision of Prof. Thomas La Porta (advisor), Dr. Ting He (co-advisor), and Dr. Novella Bartolini.

My research area is computer networks, stochastic analysis, operating system, and parallel computing. I graduated from Sharif University of technology, with MSc. in Electrical Engineering.

I'm on the N2Women board as a Website Co-chair.

I'm a doctoral student at the Chalmers University of Technology advised by Prof. Ioannis Sourdis. Formerly, I was a Researcher advised by Prof. Onur Mutlu at ETH Zürich, and Research Assistant to Prof. Trevor E. Carlson at the National University of Singapore. I obtained my engineering master's and bachelor's degrees in 2015 and 2013 respectively from BITS Pilani.

My recent work focuses on exploring near-data computing in the context of GPGPUs and 3D-DRAM architectures. Previously, I have worked on designing and building simulation infrastructures, energy-efficient cache memory architectures, and cache coherence protocols.

Sabrina M. Neuman is an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at Boston University. Her research interests are in computer architecture design informed by explicit application-level and domain-specific insights. She is particularly focused on robotics applications because of their heavy computational demands and potential to improve the well-being of individuals in society. She received her S.B., M.Eng., and Ph.D. from MIT, and she was a postdoctoral NSF Computing Innovation Fellow at Harvard University. She is a 2021 EECS Rising Star, and her work on robotics acceleration has received Honorable Mention in IEEE Micro Top Picks 2022 and IEEE Micro Top Picks 2023. She holds the 2023-2026 Boston University Innovation Career Development Professorship.

Computer Science Engineer, specializing in Hardware and Network Systems from SUNY Buffalo. Highly passionate about Research in the field of VLSI , Computer Architecture and Hardware Security. Also, I have a great interest in the field of Routers and Switches, MIMO technology and VLSI Digital Circuit designing. Along with my Master's I am also working as a Graduate Assistant in HPVSA Laboratory, in the Dept. of Computer Science Engineering , SUNY Buffalo. My current research is on design and optimization of Physically Unclonable Functions (PUF), which could act as a fingerprint for semiconductor devices.

Furthermore, I have obtained my Bachelor's degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering from SRMIST,Chennai,India. During my undergrad I sincerely worked under my Professor for the research project - on Tunnel Field Effect Transistor, which we presented at the National Conference Silicon'18. Our paper "Design Optimization of Tunnel Field Effect Transistor" was published in International Journal of Recent Technology and Engineering (IJRTE) in March 2019.

The amalgamation of Electronics, Computers and Communications have helped me to pave stronger base for the skills needed in the field of Computer Hardware and Computer Networks.
