Michela Taufer (born 23 April 1971)[8] is an Italian-American computer scientist and holds the Jack Dongarra Professorship in High Performance Computing within the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.[10] She is an ACM Distinguished Scientist[4] and an IEEE Senior Member.[2] In 2021, together with a team al Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, she earned a R&D 100 Award for the Flux workload management software framework in the Software/Services category.
Education
[edit]Taufer attended the University of Padua where she obtained a Laurea in Computer Engineering in 1996. She later went on to earn her Ph.D. in computer science at ETH Zurich (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zürich) in 2002.[8] The dissertation for her Ph.D. in computer science from ETH Zurich (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zürich) was titled, Inverting Middleware: Performance Analysis of Layered Application Codes in High Performance Distributed Computing, and was supervised by Thomas M. Stricker and Daniel A. Reed.[8]
Research
[edit]Her current research interests[11] include high performance computing,[12] scientific applications, and their programmability on multi-core and many-core platforms.[13] She applies advances in computational and algorithmic solutions for high-performance computing technologies (i.e., volunteer computing, accelerators and GPUs, and in situ analytics workflows)[14] to multi-disciplinary fields including molecular dynamics,[15] ecoinformatics, seismology, and biology.
