Krishnendu Chakrabarty, the Fulton Professor of Microelectronics in the School of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering, part of the Fulton Schools, has  won a major award for developing quality assurance testing to improve the reliability and function of data servers. The award from the Open Compute Project Foundation acknowledges collaborations between foundries and university researchers to develop innovative data center design solutions, which can help the health care, security and finances and related industries successfully manage vast amounts of confidential user data. The new method is a breakthrough in the use of large language models that will have widespread impacts, says Chakrabarti’s ASU colleague Farshad Firouzi, an electrical engineering research scientist.
