Three years ago, the UW Departments of Computer Science & Engineering and
Electrical Engineering created an initiative -- the UW Experimental Computer
Engineering Lab (ExCEL) -- to facilitate broad collaboration between the
departments along the computer engineering boundary. Key to this initiative was
our intention to make six new joint hires in computer engineering. We are very
excited at our progress; here we announce our third joint computer engineering
hire: in early 2011, Josh Smith, currently at Intel Research, will join our two
departments. Josh, who works in wireless sensing systems and robotics, will
complement our previous ExCEL hires Shwetak Patel (whose research includes
sensors and ubiquitous computing) and Georg Seelig (whose research focuses
on synthetic biology), along with numerous other computer engineers in the two
