Jun Yang is a Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh. She earned her PhD from the University of Arizona in 2002. Her research portfolio covers a wide array of subjects in computer architecture, with a recent focus on GPU designs, architecture level security, secure machine learning, memory technology, and quantum computing. Dr. Yang is a recipient of the NSF CAREER award (2008) and the IEEE MICRO Top Picks award (2010). She took on the role of Program Co-Chair at the prestigious ACM/IEEE Symposium on Microarchitecture in 2020, and has been an integral part of its steering committee till 2023. Beyond those, she has served on the editorial board of IEEE Transactions on Computers, ACM Transactions on Architecture and Code Optimization and IEEE Computer Architecture Letters. She has seved numerous organizing and technical program committees for symposiums such as ASPLOS, ISCA, MICRO, and HPCA. Her achievements and contributions have led to her inclusion in the Halls of Fame for both MICRO and HPCA.
