Fault-Tolerant Systems

Israel Koren is Professor Emeritus of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. Previously,he held positions with the Technion---Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa, the University of California at Berkeley, the Universityof Southern California, Los Angeles and the University of California, Santa Barbara. He has been a consultant to several companies,including Analog Devices, AMD, Digital Equipment Corp., IBM, Intel, and National Semiconductors. His research interests includefault-tolerant computing, cyber-physical systems, computer architecture, computer arithmetic, and secure cryptographic systems.He has over 300 publications in refereed journals and conferences and served as general chair, program committee chair and programcommittee member for numerous conferences C. Mani Krishna is Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. He received his PhD in Electrical Engineeringfrom the University of Michigan in 1984. He previously received a BTech in Electrical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, in 1979, and anMS from the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, NY, in 1980. Dr. Krishna's research interests are in the areas of cyber-physical systems, real-time and fault-tolerant computing, and distributed and networked systems. He has also been an editor on volumes of readings in performance evaluation and real-time systems, and for special issues on real-time systems of IEEE Computer and the Proceedings of the IEEE.
