Rajesh K. Gupta (born 1961) is a computer scientist and engineer, currently the Qualcomm Professor in Embedded Microsystems at University of California, San Diego. [1] [2] His research concerns design and optimization of cyber-physical systems (CPS). He is a Principal Investigator in the NSF MetroInsight project [3] and serves as Associate Director of the Qualcomm Institute (also known as California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology). His research contributions include SystemC [4] and SPARK Parallelizing High-level Synthesis. Earlier he led NSF Expeditions on Variability in Microelectronic circuits. [5]

He was the inaugural co-director of the UC San Diego Halıcıoğlu Data Science Institute [6] along with Cognitive Science professor Jeffrey Elman. In addition, he chaired the Computer Science and Engineering department at UC San Diego until 2016, [7] during a time of extraordinary growth in computer science nationwide. [8]

He holds INRIA International Chair at the French international research institute in Rennes, Bretagne Atlantique. He is a Fellow of the IEEE, a Fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery [9] and a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. [10] In 2019 he received the IEEE W. Wallace McDowell Award [11] for his "seminal contributions in design and implementation of Microelectronic Systems-on-Chip and Cyberphysical Systems." He also served on the Engineering and Computer Science jury for the Infosys Prize, from 2014 to 2018. [12]

Education

Gupta received a BTech (1984) in Electrical Engineering from IIT Kanpur, an MS (1986) in EECS from UC Berkeley, and a PhD (1994) in Electrical Engineering from Stanford. [13]

IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design of Integrated Circuits and Systems is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering the design, analysis, and use of computer-aided design of integrated circuits and systems. It is published by the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society and the IEEE Council on Electronic Design Automation. The journal was established in 1982 and the editor-in-chief is Rajesh K. Gupta. According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2022 impact factor of 2.9.

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are integrations of computation with physical processes. In cyber-physical systems, physical and software components are deeply intertwined, able to operate on different spatial and temporal scales, exhibit multiple and distinct behavioral modalities, and interact with each other in ways that change with context. CPS involves transdisciplinary approaches, merging theory of cybernetics, mechatronics, design and process science. The process control is often referred to as embedded systems. In embedded systems, the emphasis tends to be more on the computational elements, and less on an intense link between the computational and physical elements. CPS is also similar to the Internet of Things (IoT), sharing the same basic architecture; nevertheless, CPS presents a higher combination and coordination between physical and computational elements.
