Jose Renau's Tenure-Track Application

Please find enclosed my application for a position of tenure-track Assistant Professor at your department. I will finish my Ph.D. in computer science at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign this coming summer, and would be available to start working in Fall 2004. My research area is Computer Architecture. I have been working under the supervision of Professor Josep Torrellas. I have a broad expertise in computer architecture, which includes chip and processor architecture, multiprocessor systems architecture, low power design, Thread Level Speculation (TLS), and processor-inmemory systems. I have also worked on compilation support for new architectures and Linux kernel development. Finally, I have developed substantial software systems, including a simulator for computer architectures and a TLS compiler. Please find enclosed my resume, statement of research and teaching, and samples of my publications. All these documents are also available at my website (www.uiuc.edu/~renau). I am very excited at the opportunity of contributing to your department. I am sure that I can enhance its visibility and reputation with my work. I am looking forward to your positive request for an interview.
