About the Author

Marjan Asadinia received her Ph.D. degree in computer engineering from Sharif University of Technology, Tehran, Iran, in 2016. During the Ph.D., she worked on Phase Change Memories at HPCAN laboratory. She then acquired a research associate position in the Department of Computer Science at Oregon State University working on advanced technologies for non-volatile memories. She is currently a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Arkansas, Computer Science and Engineering Department. Her research interests include NoC, high-performance computer architecture, and new memory technologies.
Hamid Sarbazi-Azad is currently a professor of computer science and engineering at Sharif University of Technology, and a research professor of computer science at the Institute for Research in Fundamental Sciences, both in Tehran, Iran . His research interests include high-performance computer/memory architectures, NoCs and SoCs, learning architectures,, social networks, and storage systems, on which he has published over 400 refereed papers. He received Khwarizmi International Award in 2006, TWAS Young Scientist Award in engineering sciences in 2007, and Sharif University Distinguished Researcher awards in years 2004, 2007, 2008, 2010 and 2013. He is now an associate editor of ACM Computing Surveys, IEEE Computer Architecture Letters, and Elsevier’s Computers and Electrical Engineering.
