Why Is Susan J. Eggers Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Susan J. Eggers is an American computer scientist noted for her research on computer architecture and compilers. "Eggers is best known for her foundational work in developing and helping to commercialize simultaneous multithreaded processors, one of the most important advancements in computer architecture in the past 30 years. In the mid-1990s, Moore's Law was in full swing and, while computer engineers were finding ways to fit up to 1 billion transistors on a computer chip, the increase in logic and memory alone did not result in significant performance gains. Eggers was among those who argued that increasing parallelism, or a computer's ability to perform many calculations or processes concurrently, was the best way to realize performance gains."
