Speakers:

1. Ko Kelvin Lwin (Lecturer/Academic Coordinator, UC Merced)

Dr. Kelvin Lwin managed to only pass fifth grade in Mandalay, Burma.  After he
arrived to America, he discovered the low level of competition so
spent his time honing his skills by watching TV religiously.  He ended
up in Berkeley because it is the only school that accepted him.  Once
he realized how difficult real life is, he appreciate the value of
school even more.  He got his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and
Computer Science from UC Berkeley in 2009. Now, he figured out
a way to always have summer vacation by staying in school and
watching others suffer by teaching Computer Science and
Engineering courses in UC MERCED!


2. Ko Wai Lin Tun (Godfrey Tan) (Program Manager, INTEL)

Dr. Godfrey Tan is the program manager for the Intel AppUp Developer Program (appdeveloper.intel.com), managing the planning and execution of IADP activities. Prior to this role, he was the manageability architect driving the data center manageability system architecture and leading the development of the BI and capacity and performance management capabilities for Intel’s internal Cloud. Since joining Intel in late 2005, he also served as a key architect of the Intel Data Center Virtualization (DCV) program and the lead architect of the BI for Design Computing program. He received an Intel Achievement Award for his contributions in the DCV program. He holds a B.S. from UC Berkeley and an M.S. and a Ph.D. from MIT, all in Computer Science. He published more than a dozen papers in technical conferences.
