Biography
Torsten Hoefler is Associate Professor for Computer Science at ETH Zürich where I lead the Scalable Parallel Computing Laboratory (SPCL).
Research Interest
Torsten Hoefler research interests revolve around the central topic of "Performance-centric Software Development". In the context of High-Performance Computing (HPC), one can identify three sub-branches that I am actively working on: (1) performance modeling, simulation, and optimization of large-scale parallel applications, (2) topologies, routing, and host interfaces of large-scale networks, and (3) advanced parallel programming techniques and runtime environments. An overview graph of my past and current research activities (relative to my publication list) shows their connections: Research Overview.
