Robert Tomasulo

Robert Tomasulo

Robert Marco Tomasulo (October 31, 1934 - April 3, 2008) was the inventor of the Tomasulo algorithm. Tomasulo was the recipient of the 1997 Eckert-Mauchly Award "For the ingenious Tomasulo's algorithm, which enabled out-of-order execution processors to be implemented."

On January 30 2008, Tomasulo spoke at the College of Engineering at the University of Michigan about his career and the history and development of out-of-order execution. This seminar, believed to be his last public appearance, can be viewed at http://inst-tech.engin.umich.edu/media/index.php?sk=cse-dls-07&id=1683.

An obituary for Mr. Tomasulo is available at http://www.hometownlife.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080410/OBITS/804100719/1184.
