PSU Computer Science lecture notes by
Dr. Herbert G. Mayer
Abbreviated Vitae
MS EECS at UCSD California, 1983.
Ph.D. CS (Informatik) Technical University Berlin, 1995.
Special interest: Compiler Construction, Programming Languages, SW Pipelining.
In 1987 I started in Oregon as manager for Intel's Programming Development Environment
for the iWarp Systolic Array supercomputer.
The next stage was to manage the SSD (Supercomputer Systems Division) compiler Department
at Intel, for the Hypercube and Paragon compilers.
Continued at Intel with debugging the Merced (original, internal name for the Intel Itanium (tm) )
family of 64-bit processors.
Then I managed 13 tuning and porting labs worldwide,
known as Application Solution Centers (ASC).
Starting in 2004 I managed Compatibility Validation of Intel's
chips of the x86 family, with execution labs in Hillsboro (OR),
Dupont (WA), and Guadalajara (Mex).
The most fascinating part of my engineering work at Intel is leading the Client Performance team, a staff of technology experts that quantify and identify
for each new Intel silicon, where and why there are reasons to run slower than expected.
During all this time I also worked with enthusiasm as an adjunct
prof. at PSU's CS department, in order to share with my CS students
interesting sides of
Programming, Architecture, Compiler Design, and special topics,
such as alias analysis, and code generation for MP computers.
