EDA family tree

This family tree is only recorded by my supervisor and me such that it cannot certainly contain every famous professor due to my ignorance. Especially, this tree focuses on Chinese schloars…

Update 2023.07. During DAC, I am happy to know that this EDA tree has been viewed by many distinguished scholars. If there is any update you want me to edit, feel free to contact me weili3@andrew.cmu.edu
