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
