I will be joining the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Yale University as an Assistant Professor. I am currently recruiting Ph.D. students in Computer Engineering for Fall 2025. There are 2 – 3 positions available, with full financial support provided. Potential research topics include accelerator/computer architecture and systems, near/in memory processing, compiler and PL, performance and optimization, FPGA/GPU/CPU, sparse processing, large models and others. My work is about coding to explore something interesting in an accelerator system and improve the architecture and system. So coding skill (C/C++, HLS, Python etc) is required. If you are interested, please email me your CV, transcripts, links to published papers (if any), and links to open-sourced projects (if any).

Biography

Linghao Song is an incoming Assistant Professor in the Electrical & Computer Engineering Department at Yale University and a postdoctoral researcher in UCLA Computer Science Department under the supervision of Professor Jason Cong. He received Ph.D. in Computer Engineering from Duke University under the supervision of Professor Yiran Chen and Professor Hai (Helen) Li in 2020, M.S. in Electrical Engineering from University of Pittsburgh in 2017, and B.S.E. in Information Engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2014. His research interests include machine learning acceleration, computer architecture, FPGA acceleration systems, and deep learning application. He received 2020 EDAA Outstanding Dissertation Award and 2021 Duke ECE Outstanding Dissertation Award.
