James E. Smith (engineer)
James E. Smith is a computer engineer and an emeritus professor at the University of Wisconsin–Madison.[1]
Smith was awarded the 1999 Eckert–Mauchly Award "for fundamental contributions to high performance micro-architecture, including saturating counters for branch prediction, reorder buffers for precise exceptions, decoupled access/execute architectures, and vector supercomputer organization memory, and interconnects."[2]
Smith earned his BS in computer engineering and his MS and PhD in computer science from the University of Illinois in 1972, 1974, and 1976 respectively.[3] He joined Wisconsin's ECE faculty in 1976 and took leaves of absence to work in industry between 1979 -'81 and 1984-'89.[4]
