Dr. Yiorgos Makris Receives 2024 IEEE Fellowship

Dr. Yiorgos Makris earned the honor for his contributions to machine-learning-based design of trusted and reliable integrated circuits. IEEE, the world’s largest technical professional organization, has more than 460,000 members in 190 countries. Broadly recognized for pioneering the use of machine learning in semiconductor manufacturing and testing, Makris has spent over two decades developing and demonstrating solutions for ensuring quality, reliability, security and trustworthiness of integrated circuits and systems.

Makris, professor of electrical and computer engineering, has previously served as an Associate Editor for the IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design of Integrated Circuits and Systems, the IEEE Transactions on Information Forensics and Security and the IEEE Design & Test of Computers Periodical, and as a guest editor for the IEEE Transactions on Computers He has also served as the 2016-2017 General Chair and the 2013-2014 Program Chair of the IEEE VLSI Test Symposium, and as an organizing committee or program committee member for most IEEE conferences in the areas of VLSI Testing, Hardware Security and Electronic Design Automation. He has been recognized with the 2006 Sheffield Distinguished Teaching Award, Best Paper Awards from the 2013 IEEE/ACM Design Automation and Test in Europe (DATE’13) conference and the 2015 IEEE VLSI Test Symposium (VTS’15), as well as Best Hardware Demonstration Awards from the 2016 and the 2018 IEEE Hardware-Oriented Security and Trust Symposia (HOST’16 and HOST’18), and he is a recipient of the 2020 Faculty Research Award from the Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science at UT Dallas.

Makris is the director of the Trusted and Reliable Architectures (TRELA) Lab, the leader of the Safety, Security and Healthcare thrust of the Texas Analog Center of Excellence (TxACE), and a co-founder of the NSF Industry/University Cooperative Research Center on Hardware and Embedded-System Security and Trust (NSF CHEST I/UCRC).
