Abstract: AMD Fellow and UIUC alum Greg Tabor will explore the history of silicon design methodology and offer a glimpse into how AI will change how we design chips.
Presenter:
Greg Tabor, Fellow Silicon Design Engineer, AMD
B.S. Computer Engineering '92, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign
M.S. Electrical Engineering '98, University of Colorado, Colorado SpringsA 1992 computer engineering graduate of UIUC, Greg has had an adventurous career in the semiconductor industry with over 30 years of experience designing and architecting more than 40 complex SoCs for enterprise data storage applications. Greg has worked at several prominent semiconductor companies including NCR Microelectronics (now Broadcom), PMC-Sierra (now Microchip Technology) and Maxim Integrated Products (now Analog Devices), as well as a successful start-up acquired by Vitesse Semiconductor in 1999. In his role as a chip architect, Greg has collaborated in defining IC products with system designers and other industry experts at major computer companies including Compaq/HPE, IBM, EMC, Dell, NetApp, Sun/Oracle, Hitachi, Seagate and others. Greg has evaluated IP partners and corporate acquisition targets, served on industry standards committees on data storage technology, and has been awarded 11 patents in the fields of data storage technology and logic circuit design. As a Fellow Silicon Design Engineer at AMD, Greg presently leads a team developing and deploying Generative AI solutions for silicon design methodology.
