Candidacy to SIGARCH Board of Directors
José F. Martínez
Professor
Electrical and Computer Engineering
Cornell University
Position Statement
There are arguably three top-tier “core” computer architecture conferences: HPCA, ISCA, and MICRO. While it’s important to recognize that there are differences in their history and character, these three conferences do share a large and vibrant computer architecture research community. Having served on the journal side of both the ACM and the IEEE Computer Society for about 10 years combined, I believe the time is right to create a new, shared ACM/IEEE journal-first model tied to these three conferences. This shared journal would constitute a common archival forum for our research community worldwide.
Should I be fortunate to be elected to SIGARCH’s Board of Directors, I would work toward joining forces with our sister organizations within the ACM and the IEEE Computer Society in pursuit of this goal, enabled by an inclusive, whole-community discussion.
Bio
I am Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering, faculty member of the graduate fields of Computer Science and Systems Engineering, and Faculty Fellow of the Atkinson Center for a Sustainable Future, all at Cornell. I am part of Cornell’s Computer Systems Laboratory.
I served as Editor in Chief of IEEE Computer Architecture Letters from 2013 through 2016. I was also Associate Editor of ACM Trans. on Computer Architecture and Code Optimization (TACO) for five years. In 2017 I served as Chair of the IEEE Computer Society’s Transactions Operating Committee, in charge of overseeing all of the Society’s journal publications. I was Program Co-chair (with David August) of MICRO 2009, and Program Chair of HPCA 2016. I am General Co-chair (with José Duato) of ISCA 2020.
I am currently co-PI and the hardware theme lead for the Center for Research in Intelligent Storage and Processing in Memory (CRISP), and co-PI of Cornell’s Center on Durable, Energy-Efficient, Pausable Processing in Polymorphic Memories (DEEP3M). I am also co-founder and part of the Executive Committee of Cornell’s Initiative for Digital Agriculture (CIDA).
I have been very fortunate to work with some extraordinary people, and as a result my research has received a number of awards over the years; among them: two IEEE Micro Top Picks papers; a HPCA Best Paper award, as well as MICRO and HPCA Best Paper nominations; a NSF CAREER Award; two IBM Faculty Awards; and a Distinguished Educator Award by the University of Illinois’ Computer Science Department (my graduate alma mater).
On the teaching side, I have been recognized with two Kenneth A. Goldman ’71 and one Dorothy and Fred Chau MS’74 College of Engineering teaching awards; a Ruth and Joel Spira Award for Teaching Excellence; twice as the most influential college educator of a Merrill Presidential Scholar; and as the student-elected 2011 Tau Beta Pi Professor of the Year in the College of Engineering.
I graduated in Computer Science & Engineering (“Licenciado en Informática de Sistemas”) in 1996 from the Universidad Politécnica de Valencia, and earned MS (1999) and Ph.D. (2002) degrees in Computer Science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I received two national awards for academic excellence from Spain’s Ministry of Education, and came to the United States on a four-year fellowship from the Bank of Spain, for which I am forever grateful. While a graduate student at UIUC, I was inducted into the Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi.
