Biography
Tulika Mitra is the Dean of the School of Computing and Vice Provost (Special Projects)
at the National University of Singapore. She holds the Provost's Chair Professorship in the
Department of Computer Science.
Her research centers on hardware-software co-design of smart, energy-efficient, safety-critical
embedded computing systems. She leads the ECO (Embedded Computing) Lab, which designs
innovative computing systems for the mobile and embedded domain offering high performance,
flexibility, energy-efficiency, and predictability.
Her work employs cross-layer mechanisms spanning computer architecture (heterogeneous multi-cores,
processor customization, reconfigurable computing), compiler and operating systems (program analysis,
runtime resource management), and design automation (application-to-architecture synthesis).
