“Our project reaches across disciplines to design and build a software system based on data that can predict soil moisture at levels necessary to help support agriculture and hydrology, all on a shared model.”

Min H. Kao Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Professor Husheng Li, an expert in wireless technology, stands to play a key role in the continued development of 5G technology and the provisioning of 6G networks, related breakthroughs and uses, and future communications networks thanks to a trio of grants he received from the National Science Foundation.

Longtime UT and ORNL Professor Jack Dongarra was named the AM Turing Award winner for 2021 for his contributions to computing.

A research group at UT is helping to democratize access to data. Its collaboration is part of a national team […]

For his research in incorporating phase transition materials into electronics applications, Electrical Engineering Assistant Professor Ahmedullah Aziz has received the Outstanding Ph.D. Dissertation Award in Electronic Design Automation from the Association of Computing Machinery.

Bai’s research employs a new approach to electric vehicle applications, using what are called hybrid switching modules. His team’s designs utilize both the more expensive gallium nitride devices and the less expensive silicon devices in tandem, resulting in greater operating efficiency without hiking up the cost.

Included in that group are two University of Tennessee alumni from what is now the Min H. Kao Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Lynne Parker (’83) and Mark Dean (’79). In addition to their shared ties to the department, both later served as interim deans of the Tickle College of Engineering, giving UT a strong connection to the new task force.

A team of UT electrical engineering and computer science students used machine learning to predict feedback in a popular Reddit forum to identify jerks.

The UT EcoCAR team has worked diligently towards re-engineering their 2019 Chevrolet Blazer during Year 3. The main focus for […]
