Igor Markov’s Summary
Igor L. Markov is an associate professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Michigan. He received his M.A. in Mathematics and Ph.D. in Computer Science from UCLA.
Igor's interests are in combinatorial optimization with applications to the design and verification of integrated circuits, as well as in quantum logic circuits. Prof. Markov's research contributions include new algorithmic techniques for Boolean satisfiability, hypergraph partitioning, block packing, large-scale circuit layout, synthesis of quantum circuits, as well as quantum-mechanical simulation with compressed matrices. Some of these algorithms lead to order-of-magnitude improvements in practice, and many of them are implemented in software, including open-source projects and major commercial tools.
Igor co-authored one book, four book chapters, and over 150 refereed publications. He served on program committees of most major conferences in Electronic Design Automation. Six Ph.D. degrees were defended under his guidance, and seven graduate students are working with him now. Current and former students interned at or are employed by AMD, Amazon.com, Cadence, Calypto, the US Department of Defense, the US Department of Energy, Google, IBM Research, Lockheed Martin, Microsoft, Qualcomm, UC Berkeley, Synopsys, and Synplicity.
