Short bio

Contact Information

On Sabbatical, Spring 2008

Compiler technology provides the necessary interface between programming languages and architectures, and as such is intimately tied to new developments in both. Jeanne Ferrante's work has centered on the development of compiler technology, with particular interest in exploiting parallelism and optimizing data movement to achieve high performance. Her current research interests also include autonomous application scheduling for large-scale distributed systems, and program information interfaces.
