Kevin Skadron is the Harry Douglas Forsyth Professor of Computer Science at the University of Virginia, where he has been on the faculty since 1999, after receiving his Ph.D. at Princeton. He served as department chair from 2012-2021. He is also director of the Center for Research on Intelligent Storage and Processing in Memory, part of the SRC JUMP program from 2018-2022. Skadron’s research interests include designing and applying accelerators and heterogeneous architectures, their memory hierarchies, and associated power, thermal, reliability, and programming challenges. He and his colleagues and students have developed several tools to support research on these topics, such as PiMulator, MNCaRT/APsim, HotSpot, and Rodinia. He is a Fellow of the IEEE and the ACM and a recipient of the 2011 ACM SIGARCH Maurice Wilkes Award. He co-founded IEEE Computer Architecture Letters and served as Associate Editor-in-Chief from that time until he became Editor-in-Chief, serving from 2010-2012. He also served on the editorial board of IEEE Micro and helped launch its Prolegomena column.
