Brief Biography

Barton Miller is Professor of Computer Sciences at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. He directs the Paradyn Parallel Performance Tool project, which is investigating performance and instrumentation technologies for parallel and distributed applications and systems. He also co-directs the WiSA security project. His research interests include tools for high-performance computing systems, binary code analysis and instrumentation, computer security, and scalable distributed systems.

Miller co-chaired the 2007 Dagstuhl Seminar on Code Instrumentation & Modeling for Parallel Performance Analysis and will co-chair the SC|2008 Technical Program Tutorials. He was co-chair of the 2005 Dagstuhl Seminar on Automated Performance Analysis, co-chair the SC2003 Technical Papers program, Program co-Chair of the 1998 ACM/SIGMETRICS Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Tools, and General Chair of the 1996 ACM/SIGMETRICS Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Tools. He also twice chaired the ACM/ONR Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Debugging. Miller has been on the editorial board of IEEE Transactions on Parallel Distributed Systems, the International Journal of Parallel Processing, Concurrency and Computation Practice & Experience, and the Journal of Computing Systems. Miller has chaired numerous workshops and has been on numerous conference program committees. He is also a member of the IEEE Technical Committee on Parallel Processing.

Miller is the chair of the IDA Center for Computing Sciences Program Review Committee, was a member of the Los Alamos National Laboratory Computing, Communications and Networking Division Review Committee, and has been on the U.S. Secret Service Electronic Crimes Task Force (Chicago Area), the Advisory Committee for Tuskegee University's High Performance Computing Program, and the Advisory Board for the International Summer Institute on Parallel Computer Architectures, Languages, and Algorithms in Prague. Miller is an active participant in the European Union APART performance tools initiative.

Miller received his Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from the University of California, Berkeley in 1984. He is a Fellow of the ACM.
