Parthiv Krishna
Masters Student in Computer Science, admitted Autumn 2020
BioI'm a student at Stanford with a passion for hardware and software, and aspirations to pursue a career in product innovation and entrepreneurship. I have experience with various robotics projects and have a particular interest in computer architecture for high-performance embedded computing. Outside of the classroom, I'm involved with the Stanford Harmonics a cappella group, the Stanford Ski Team, Stanford Student Robotics, and Delta Kappa Epsilon.
For my undergrad in Electrical Engineering major on the Hardware and Software track, I focused on computer systems and signal processing. I also completed a minor in Music, focusing on audio production and music theory. I found lots of interesting overlap between EE and Music, especially in the domain of signals.
For my Master's degree in Computer Science, I'm on the Systems track where I am studying computer architecture, compilers, and embedded systems. I am focusing my coursework and research towards areas like hardware/software co-design, efficient embedded architectures, and domain-specific hardware. -
Ilan Kroo
Thomas V. Jones Professor in the School of Engineering
BioProfessor Kroo's research involves work in three general areas: multidisciplinary optimization and aircraft synthesis, unconventional aircraft, and low-speed aerodynamics. Current research in the field of aircraft synthesis, sponsored by NASA and industry, includes the development of a new computational architecture for aircraft design, and its integration with numerical optimization. Studies of unconventional configurations employ rapid turnaround analysis methods in the design of efficient subsonic and supersonic commercial aircraft. Recent research has included investigation of configurations such as joined wings, oblique wings, and tailless aircraft. Nonlinear low-speed aerodynamics studies have focused on vortex wake roll-up, refined computation of induced drag, the design of wing tips, and the aerodynamics of maneuvering aircraft.
