Milos Prvulovic, Ph.D., is a professor in the School of Computer Science, College of Computing at the Georgia Institute of Technology. His research focuses on hardware and software support for program monitoring, debugging, and security. His research of side-channel emmanations and side-channel attacks has led to widespread interest from professional societies, the media and additional reserach sponsors -- most recently attracting a $9.4 million award from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) for continued study. In general, the goal of his research is to make both hardware and software more reliable and secure. Prvulovic is a senior member of Association of Computing Machinery (ACM) and Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), served as the chair of the IEEE Technical Committee on Microprogramming and Microarchitecture in 2016, and is a member of the Steering Committee for the ACM/IEEE MICRO conference. Prvulovic received his doctorate from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

Vivek Sarkar is Chair of the School of Computer Science at Georgia Tech, where he is also the Stephen Fleming Chair for Telecommunications in the College of Computing. He conducts research in multiple aspects of parallel computing software including programming languages, compilers, runtime systems, and debuggers for parallel, heterogeneous and high-performance computer systems. Prof. Sarkar currently leads the Habanero Extreme Scale Software Research Laboratory at Georgia Tech, and is co-director of the Center for Research into Novel Computing Hierarchies (CRNCH). He is also the instructor for a 3-course online specialization on Parallel, Concurrent, and Distributed Programming hosted on Coursera. 

Prior to joining Georgia Tech in 2017, Prof. Sarkar was the E.D. Butcher Chair in Engineering at Rice University, where he created the Habanero Lab, served as Chair of the Department of Computer Science during 2013–2016, and created a sophomore-level undergraduate course on Fundamentals of Parallel Programming. Before joining Rice in 2007, Sarkar was Senior Manager of Programming Technologies at IBM Research. His research projects at IBM included the X10 programming language, the Jikes Research Virtual Machine for the Java language, the ASTI optimizer used in IBM’s XL Fortran product compilers, and the PTRAN automatic parallelization system. Sarkar became a member of the IBM Academy of Technology in 1995, and was inducted as an ACM Fellow in 2008. He has been serving as a member of the US Department of Energy’s Advanced Scientific Computing Advisory Committee (ASCAC) since 2009, and on CRA’s Board of Directors since 2015.

Santosh Vempala is a prominent computer scientist. He is a Distinguished Professor of Computer Science at the Georgia Institute of Technology. His main work has been in the area of Theoretical Computer Science. 

Vempala secured B.Tech. degree in Computer Science and Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, in 1992 then he attended Carnegie Mellon University, where he received his Ph.D. in 1997 under professor Avrim Blum. 

In 1997, he was awarded a Miller Fellowship at Berkeley. Subsequently, he was a professor at MIT in the Mathematics Department, until he moved to Georgia Tech in 2006. 

His main work has been in the area of theoretical computer science, with particular activity in the fields of algorithms, randomized algorithms, computational geometry, and computational learning theory, including the authorship of books on random projection and spectral methods. 

In 2008, he co-founded the Computing for Good (C4G) program at Georgia Tech.

Vempala has received numerous awards, including a Guggenheim Fellowship, Sloan Fellowship, and being listed in Georgia Trend's 40 under 40.[5] He was named Fellow of ACM "For contributions to algorithms for convex sets and probability distributions" in 2015.[6] He was named a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society, in the 2022 class of fellows, "for contributions to randomized algorithms, high-dimensional geometry, and numerical linear algebra, and service to the profession".

Dana Randall is an American computer scientist. She works as the ADVANCE Professor of Computing, and adjunct professor of mathematics at the Georgia Institute of Technology. She is also an External Professor of the Santa Fe Institute. Previously she was executive director of the Georgia Tech Institute of Data Engineering and Science (IDEaS) that she co-founded, and director of the Algorithms and Randomness Center. Her research include combinatorics, computational aspects of statistical mechanics, Monte Carlo stimulation of Markov chains, and randomized algorithms.
