Umit Yusuf Ogras, an esteemed professor of electrical and computer engineering and an innovative entrepreneur, currently holds a pivotal role as an associate professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. His academic journey, enriched by a Ph.D. in Computer Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University in 2007, set the foundation for a career marked by significant contributions to both academia and industry. His path has been a testament to the fusion of deep academic insight and practical application, making him a notable figure in his field. Before he entered academia, he was integral to advancements in the tech industry, specifically during his tenure at Intel from 2008 to 2013. As a research scientist, he focused on the development of Intel Xeon Server processors, notably the Skylake server. He made significant strides in the innovation of energy-efficient systems-on-chip (SoC). This period was not only marked by technological breakthroughs but also by his growing expertise, which would later enrich his academic pursuits. Transitioning from the industry to academia, he joined Arizona State University as a faculty member in 2013. Over the next seven years, he dedicated himself to teaching, honing his skills as an educator while continuing to engage in impactful research. His commitment to Arizona State University was characterized by a drive to nurture the next generation of engineers and researchers, thereby contributing significantly to the academic community. His journey then led him to the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where he joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. Parallel to his academic role, he ventured into entrepreneurship, founding xPLORE Solutions and playing a foundational role in establishing DASH Tech Integrated Circuits, Inc. These endeavors demonstrate his skill in translating academic research into practical, real-world applications, bridging the gap between theory and practice. Throughout his career, his research interests have been diverse and influential, spanning from heterogeneous multicore architectures and wearable computing to low-power VLSI, flexible hybrid electronics, and domain-specific systems. His early collaborative work, notably a paper co-authored with his PhD advisor Radu Marculescu, was recognized by Google Scholar as a seminal contribution to computer hardware design.
