I am a senior researcher at Intel Labs in Santa Clara, CA. My research interests include real-time computer graphics, graphics architecture, and high-performance programming languages, often talking a "systems"-style approach.

Intel's research and product groups are always looking for world-class researchers, system builders, graphics architects, and compiler experts. If you have a track record of exceptional work in any of these areas and are interested in opportunities at Intel, please feel free to contact me. Working at Intel provides a unique opportunity to change the GPUs, CPUs, and system software used in the majority of the world's PCs.

Some Previous Research Projects

From 2003-2007, I lead a Real-Time Graphics and Parallel Systems group at the University of Texas to explore algorithms and architectures for future graphics systems organized around highly parallel, "general-purpose" single-chip parallel-processing hardware.
From Oct 2001 - Oct 2002, I worked at NVIDIA as the lead designer of the Cg language.
Ray Tracing on Programmable Graphics Hardware (project at Stanford).
Real-Time Programmable Shading (project at Stanford).
