BACKGROUND
Krish Chakrabarty joined Duke University in September 1998 as Assistant Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering. He was promoted to Associate Professor with tenure in December 2002, and to full Professor in January 2007.
His current research is focused on
design and test of system-on-chip integrated circuits, microfluidics-based biochips (digital microfluidics, microelectrofluidics), and wireless/sensor networks.
Research support is provided by the National Science Foundation, the Semiconductor Research Corporation, Cisco Systems, Intel Corporation (equipment grant), and the National Institutes of
Health (STTR Phase II subcontract from Advanced Liquid Logic).Other sponsors in the recent past have included DARPA and the Office of Naval Research.
Prof. Chakrabarty is a recipient of the 1999 National Science Foundation Early Faculty (CAREER)
Award, the 2001 Office of Naval Research Young Investigator Award, the Mercator Professor award from Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, Germany, for 2000-2002, and best paper awards at the 2001 IEEE Design Automation and Test in Europe (DATE)
Conference, the 2005 IEEE International Conference on Computer Design, and the 2007 IEEE International Conference on VLSI Design.
He is a recipient of Duke University's 2008 Dean's Award for Excellence in Mentoring.
Prof. Chakrabarty is currently serving as an ACM Distinguished Speaker. He served as a Distinguished Visitor of the IEEE Computer Society for 2005-2007, and a Distinguished Lecturer of the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society for 2006-2007. He is also a recipient of the Humboldt Research Fellowship, awarded by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, Germany, in 2003. He
holds a US patent on built-in self-test, and has a pending US patent on sensor networks. He is an Editor
of the Journal of Electronic Testing: Theory and Applications (JETTA), an
Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design of Integrated Circuits and Systems,
IEEE Transactions on VLSI Systems,
IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Circuits and Systems, and
ACM Journal on Emerging Technologies in Computing Systems. He serves on the editorial board of IEEE Design & Test of Computers. During 2006-2007, he served as an Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems I, and before that as an
Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems II: Analog and Digital Signal Processing.
Prof. Chakrabarty received the B. Tech. degree
from the
Indian Institute of
Technology, Kharagpur,
India in 1990,
and the M.S.E. and Ph.D. degrees from the
University
of Michigan, Ann Arbor in 1992 and 1995, respectively, all in Computer Science and
Engineering .
During 1990-95, he was a research assistant at the
Advanced Computer Architecture Laboratory of the
Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, University of Michigan. During 1995-1998, he was an Assistant Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Boston University.
Prof. Chakrabarty is a Fellow of IEEE, a Golden Core Member of the IEEE Computer Society, a Distinguished Engineer of ACM, a member of SIGDA, and a member of Sigma Xi. He is also an Invitational Fellow of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS), 2009. He is a recipient of the IEEE Computer Society Meritorious Service Award. Prof. Chakrabarty is a Chair Professor (Member of the Chair Professor Group in Software Theory) in the School of Software in Tsinghua University, Beijing, China.
