Prof. Dutt was awarded a Research Initiation Award by the National
Science Foundation.  His current technical interests include CAD for
sub-micron VLSI circuits, fault-tolerant computing and testing for
emerging VLSI technologies, parallel computing and computer
architecture. His research is or has been funded by NSF, DARPA, AFOSR
and companies like Xilinx and Intel.  He has published around 70 papers
in well-recognized archival journals and refereed conferences in all
the above areas. He has received a Best-Paper award at the "Design
Automation Conference", 1996, a Most-Influential-Paper award from the
"Fault-Tolerant Computing Symposium (FTCS)" in 1995 for a paper
published in FTCS'88 and a Best-Paper nomination at the "Design
Automation Conference", 2004, and was a featured speaker (one of
two) at the Int'l Conference on CAD (ICCAD) 2006.

He has contributed an invited articles in the "Wiley Encyclopedia of
Electrical and Electronics Engineering" and the "Electrical Engineering
Handbook" from Academic Press, and an invited paper at DIMACS.  He has
been on several NSF review panels and the technical program committees
of conferences on fault-tolerant computing, parallel processing and
VLSI CAD. Recently he was a co-chair of the Tools and Methodology track
of ICCD'04 and on the technical program committees of ICCD'03,
GLSVLSI'04-'08.
