I plan to obtain my Ph.D. from Indiana University this December and am
beginning to look for employment. A short description of my research follows.
Please contact me by email, telephone, or US-mail for more details.
Thesis Title: Performance Prediction of Supercomputer Programs.
Thesis Advisor: Dr. Dennis Gannon.
Research Interests:
* Static performance prediction of supercomputer programs.
* Parallel program development environments.
* Modeling and predicting program behavior on hierarchical memory
systems.
* Compilers and data flow analysis for parallel systems.
I am a member of the group that developed the Sigma interactive parallel
program development environment. The Sigma project, directed by Prof. Dennis
Gannon, contains a data dependence analyzer, a performance predictor, and a
program database. The X-window based (or the newly developed GNU-emacs based)
Sigma interface allows the user to fine-tune parallel programs interactively.
This tunning process is guided by the performance profiles from the static
predictor, data dependence information from the dependence analyzer, and
various standard restructuring constructs.
My contributions to Sigma include the Cedar Fortran parser (Fortran 8X with
parallel constructs) and the performance prediction module.
