(1994) degrees from UMass Amherst and the Diploma (1984) from the Politehnica University in Bucharest, Romania. Since 1996 he has been with the ECE Department at UVa, where he is now the Director of Computer Engineering and the Virginia Microelectronics Consortium (VMEC) professor. Prof. Stan was a visiting faculty at UC Berkeley in 2004-2005, at IBM in 2000, and at Intel in 2002 and 1999. He received the 2018 Influential ISCA Paper Award (For his 2003 paper "Temperature-aware microarchitecture"), the NSF CAREER award in 1997, and was a co-author on best paper awards at ASILOMAR19, LASCAS19, SELSE17, ISQED08, GLSVLSI06, ISCA03 and SHAMAN02 and IEEE Micro Top Picks in 2008 and 2003. He gave keynotes at NILES22, DCAS18, SOCC16, CogArch16, WoNDP15, iNIS15 and CNNA14. He was the chair of the VSA-TC of IEEE CAS in 2005-2007, general chair for ISLPED06 and GLSVLSI04, TPC chair for SOCC18, ISVLSI17, NanoNets07, and ISLPED05, and on technical committees for numerous conferences. He is Editor-in-Chief for the IEEE TVLSI and was Senior Editor for the IEEE TNano 2015-2022, AE for the IEEE TNano in 2012-2014, IEEE Design & Test in 2016-2022, IEEE TCAS I in 2004-2008 and for the IEEE TVLSI in 2001-2003. He was Guest Editor for the IEEE Computer special issue on Power-Aware Computing in December 2003 and a Distinguished Lecturer for the IEEE Circuits and Systems (CAS) Society in 2020-2021, 2012-2013, and 2004-2005, and for the Solid-State Circuits Society (SSCS) in 2007-2008.
