      FCCM Community contributed video honoring the legacy and impact of Mike Butts who sadly passed away on March 29 2020.

      With deep regret we must share the terrible news that our friend and colleague Mike Butts passed away on Sunday, March 29, 2020.

      Mike was a champion of custom computing with programmable logic, including pioneering work on logic emulation, Ambric-style productive parallel computing with Kahn process networks, soft processors, and more. He was a leader and a fixture of our FCCM community for over 25 years. Moreover, Mike shared with all of us his boundless supply of positivity, good humor, insight, enthusiasm, encouragement, and good counsel, all of which will be dearly missed.

      We send our deep condolences to Mike’s wife Lily Gardner-Butts and their family.

      Jan Gray, Nachiket Kapre, Guy Lemieux, Shep Siegel
