Computer Engineering Academic Genealogy 

Note:  This page is incomplete and may not be accurate.  Prof.Yuan Xie created it just out of curiosity about the academic genealogy in the areas of VLSI/Computer Architecture/Compiler/Embedded Systems (mainly related to hardware engineering,  even though some people do both hardware and software). If you are interested in software engineering academic genealogy, please refer to his younger brother Prof. Tao Xie's Software Engineering genealogy tree.   Also, please check another page that Yuan Xie maintains ---  "who is who in computer architecture/compiler/VLSI" 

If you have any update information, or find any mistakes, please send him an email at yuanxie AT cse.psu.edu. The tree grows when he has free time
