Richard Vuduc is a tenured professor of computer science at the Georgia Institute of Technology. His research lab, The HPC Garage, studies high-performance computing, scientific computing, parallel algorithms, modeling, and engineering.[1] He is a member of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM).[citation needed] As of 2022, Vuduc serves as Vice President of the SIAM Activity Group on Supercomputing.[1] He has co-authored over 200 articles in peer-reviewed journals and conferences.[2]

Education[edit]

Dr. Vuduc received his Ph.D. in computer science from the University of California, Berkeley,[1] in 2004. He received his B.S in computer science at Cornell University in 1997. He is also an alumnus of the Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology in Alexandria, Virginia.[citation needed]

Academic career[edit]

Vuduc was a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Center for Advanced Scientific Computing at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.[3] He has served as an associate editor of both the International Journal of High-Performance Computing Applications and IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems. He co-chaired the Technical Papers Program of the “Supercomputing” (SC) Conference in 2016 and was later elected to be Vice President of the SIAM Activity Group on Supercomputing from 2016 to 2018. He also served as department’s Associate Chair and Director of its graduate (MS & Ph.D.) programs from 2013-2016.[1]
