#50yearsIRISA: IRISA has been created 50 years ago.  At that time, computers were a rare, voluminous and expensive resource. Nowadays, they have become ubiquitous in our every day life. They are present very cheap appliances, our cell phones, our labtops but also in multi-millions euros supercomputers. For the general public, this  technology revolution is often seen as the conjunction of  extraordinary progresses in hardware integration, and  the invention of new algorithms  and new applications.  However this revolution would not have been possible without the intermediate layers: computer architecture, operating systems, languages and compilers.

 

This session of the "invités du mois" will focused  on computer architecture with two prestigious invitees, Joel Emer and Moinuddin Qureshi.
 
Computer architecture is one of the domains where the influence of research on industry  has been particularly strong. Joel Emer and Moinuddin Qureshi have both academic and industrial profiles. Many products have been influenced by their research.
