Congratulations to Ryan Liu, a PhD student in electrical and computer engineering (ECE); Shreya Shinde, ECE alum from the MEng program; Dr. Ladan Tahvildari, Professor in ECE; and IBM collaborators Dr. Mark Stoodley, Dr. Marius Pirvu, and Vijay Sundaresan on their remarkable achievement!

Their paper, "Using Semeru Cloud Compiler to Enhance Cloud-Native Java Application Performance," was honored with the Best Paper Award at the 34th International Conference on Collaborative Advances in Software and Computing (CASCON).

Congratulations to PhD student Elaheh (Ellie) Sanoubari. Sanoubari won a Best Presentation Award at the International Conference on Social Robotics (ICSR 2024) in Odense, Denmark in October for her work "What Makes an Educational Robot Game Fun? Framework Analysis of Children's Design Ideas.”

Imagine shrinking satellite technology that predicts the weather into a device that transmits vital information about the health of the person wearing it.

University of Waterloo engineers have achieved that technological feat that will help diabetics to monitor their glucose levels and other people faced with other chronic health problems.

Electrical and computer engineering (ECE) alumni, Samira Ghanbarian and Arpan Mukhopadhyay, along with ECE professor, Dr. Ravi Mazumdar, and Dr. Fabrice Guillemin, project leader at Orange Labs, won a Best Paper Award at ACM MOBIHOC 2024 last week.

Congratulations are in order for electrical and computer engineering professor, Dr. Ladan Tahvildari.  Tahvildari was recently elected to the Board of Governors of the IEEE Computer Society (IEEE CS) for a three year term beginning 1 January 2025.
