Bokun Wang

Postdoctoral Researcher at UT Austin

I am a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at The University of Texas at Austin, working with Prof. Diana Marculescu and the EnyAC group. Before that, I received my Ph.D. degree in Computer Science at Texas A&M University, advised by Prof. Tianbao Yang.

My research interest lies in the Hardware-efficient Generative AI.
