I Bios: Veljko Milutinović. Ph.D. from University of Belgrade in 1982, concurrently with the full-time job in the Michael Pupin Institute, where he was employed till August 1982. From August 1982 till August 1983 he was a tenure-track assistant professor at the Florida International University (Miami, Florida). Till August 1989 he was with the Purdue University (West Lafayette, Indiana), first as a visiting assistant professor and then (from 1987) as a tenure-track assistant professor. On August 1989 he transferred to the School of Electrical Engineering (ETF), University of Belgrade (first as an assistant professor, then as an associate professor from November 1992, and as a full professor from December 1997). Till August 1995. he was engaged at Purdue University as a visiting professor (State of Indiana employee: grant 1285/0055), each summer (six times). His primary field of interest is computer architecture. Secondary fields of interest include microprocessor and VLSI design, multiprocessor systems, distributed systems, and system support for electronic business on Internet.

II Books: He has published 26 books (21 in English, 4 in Serbian, and 1 in Polish) as follows. He wrote 4 books (on over 1000 pages) in Serbian (2 as a single author, for his lectures at two courses that he is in charge of at the University of Belgrade, and two as the first co-author, for exercises at the same two courses). One of the two single-authored books was translated into Polish and re-published by the Institute of Mathematical Machines, Warszaw, Poland, 1980, and the other was translated into English and re-published by IEEE Computer Society Press, Los Alamitos, California, USA, 1997. He published 8 edited books in English (4 as a single editor and 4 as a co-editor); some of the chapters were written by himself with or without associates (over 500 pages of the originally developed text, in all 8 books together), while the rest was written by leading researchers in the field (publishers North-Holland, New York, New York, USA and Prentice-Hall, Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, USA). For one of them, foreword was written by Nobel laureate Kenneth Wilson, and for another Nobel laureate Leon Cooper. He published (as editor or co-editor, in English) 7 edited reprint selection books with editor’s overviews and comments and overviews, on over 500 pages of originally developed text; one of them was the bestseller of all times for the publisher (IEEE Computer Society Press, 1986). He published 5 conference proceedings books from the IEEE/ACM HICSS—Computer Architecture track (as a co-editor). The major books among the recent ones include (some of them being used as textbooks at universities worldwide):

IV Conference papers: He published over 100 papers at conferences where the papers are printed in entirety; 70 papers at international conferences (10 as a single author) and the rest at national conferences. Some of them received awards both at IEEE/ACM conferences (2) and national conferences (2). One of them (split temporal/spatial cache) was co-authored with an architect of the SUN Microsystems UltraSparc II microprocessor and PicoJava I (M. Tremblay); another (integrated injection/absorbtion cache) was co-authored by an architect of Intel P8 microprocessor (G. Sheaffer).

V Projects: Major practically realized industrial prototypes which later entered serial production: (a) a 2-microprocessor modem for 4800 b/s (IMP, 1978), (b) a 17-microprocessor detector of HF radio data signals (IMP, 1980), (c) a 32-bit 200 MHz microprocessor (RCA, 1986), (d) a 16-bit microprocessor based on the vertical migration principle (NCR, 1988), (e) a DSM board which turns a PC into a DSM workstation (Encore, 1994), (f) implementing a silicon compilation model of the 64-bit microprocessor i860 (TDT, 1996). All 6 cases represent pioneering work in the field. In the first 2 he was the project leader and the only designer. In the next 2 he was the project leader and one of the designers. In the final 2 he was the project leader and creator of the overall strategy; the actual design was run by his associates (M. Tomašević, S. Savić, M. Jovanović, A. Grujić, Z. Petković).

From October 1991, in two cycles, je was in charge of the government sponsored research projects in both science and technology. In the first cycle, an FPGA-based redesign of an HF data modem was done, which was in serial production in a factory in Pljevlja; in the second cycle, an FPGA-based R2 detector redesign for anPABX switching technology was done, which was in serial production in a factory in Belgrade.

From October 1991 he was in charge of two international projects based at ETF. One was for NCR (Dayton, Ohio, USA)—architecture improvements for NCR’s next generation multimedia PCs. The other was for TD Technology (Cleveland, Ohio, USA)—design improvements of modern microprocessors. Both projects enabled the computing infrastructure of ETF to be considerably improved.

VI Coursework: Four courses on the undergraduate level. Two core courses, each one with 42 hours of lectures (microprocessor systems and VLSI systems), for which he has provided all necessary lab equipment (without any participation of university or government). From October 1997 he also teaches two optional courses, each one with 21 hours of lectures (multiprocessors and Internet).

Four courses at the graduate level. Two courses (VLSI computer design and software system support architectures), based on four textbooks co-authored by him (3 already printed; 1 in production, but available to students). Also in charge of two other courses being taught by others (I/O and arithmetic).

VII Postgraduate thesis research: At Purdue University advisor to 4 Ph.D. and 4 M.Sc. students. At ETF advisor to 4 Ph.D. and 6 M.Sc. students. Currently supervising 4 Ph.D. students and 8 M.Sc. students. He has created an original research methodology which is being used in his work with graduate students.
