Donald Yeung

Donald Yeung is a Professor and Associate Chair for Undergraduate Education in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Maryland, with an additional appointment as Affiliate Professor in the Department of Computer Science. His research focuses on Computer Architecture, particularly in memory systems, 3D integration, energy-efficient processors, and parallel processing. He leads projects like Monolithic 3D Integration of CPU and Main Memory and Approximate Computing.

Recent work emphasizes ReRAM-based memory architectures, extreme-scale processor design, and micro-fluidic cooling solutions for 3D CPUs. His teaching includes courses like ENE 646: Computer Architecture and ENE 150: Intermediate Programming Concepts.

Key achievements include the Best Paper Award at MULTIPROG-2017 and contributions to IEEE Micro and ACM Transactions. His research spans cache optimization, reuse distance analysis, and directory coherence protocols. Current grants include funding for heterogeneous microprocessor parallelism and low-power system design.

Advises graduate students Yinuo Wang and Hung-Yu Yeh, and collaborates with teams like the UMIACS Technical Report Group. His lab focuses on memory-centric computing and scalable multicore systems.
