I
work in supercomputing and distributed systems, mainly in Cluster, Grid
and Cloud Computing. My professional-academical life start in
Bucaramanga, Department of Santander, in the Republic of Colombia, where I followed studies in Engineering Systems
and Computer Science in the Universidad Industrial de Santander (UIS).
Among the years on the engineer formation I was worked in basis studies
of computer science issues for astrophysics and aerospace problems. My
first works were about the use of the dynamic systems to simulate and
modeling complex astrophysical phenomena. These works are made in the Halley Center of Astronomy and Aerospace Sciences at UIS.
With these first research experiences, we was find different problems associated
with the low performance and great lack in computer processing. For
this reason, I explore the use of Beowulf Clusters based in Linux...
and my supercomputing life begins!! My final Engineering Systems
project was about the study of the use of Linux Clusters in computer
classrooms.

After
my Engineer formation, I work as associated teacher for many academic unities: the Physics,
Chemical Engineering and Systems and Computer Science schools at
UIS. I gave different courses in Computer Programming, Numerical
Methods, Numerical Analysis and I created the course of "Introduction
to Distributed and Parallel Programming".
In the same time, I
continue with the research works in Astrophysics simulations, but now,
using HPC techniques. Also, I start with different projects to develop
HPC uses in Bucaramanga, Colombia, with the found of the CeCalcULA
group of the Universidad de Los Andes, in Mérida, Venezuela.
In 2004, I go to
Grenoble, in France to make the Master Research in Computer Science at the
Grenoble University (CEF Scholarship). My master work was advised by
the Prof. Yves Denneulin. This work was about the Analysis of
Highbanwidth Data Transfer in Clusters. The work was developed in the ID Laboratory (Now, LIG-Montbonnot Laboratory).

I'm
Doctor in Computer Science of the University of Nice-Sophia Antipolis,
in France. My PhD. research was about the study of Grid Computing
Architecture Behaviors for Large Data Transfers. This work was made in
the context of a special interaction between the MESCAL Team of the
Laboratory of Informatics of Grenoble at Montbonnot-St Martin (LIG
Montbonnot) and the RAINBOW Team of the Laboratory of Informatics,
Signals and Systems of Sophia Antipolis (I3S), in France. The research
was advised by the Prof. Michel Riveill and the Prof. Yves Denneulin.
During the years of the
PhD. Studies, I was part of the GEDEON Project and MEG Project. Also, I
participated in the interaction between the LIG-Montbonnot Laboratory
and the Parallel and Distributed Architectures Group of the Instituto de Informàtica of the Universidad
Federal de Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), in Porto Alegre, Brazil and in the ECOS- NORD
Action C07M02 (France and Colombia Cooperation).
In my first post-doc job, I was research engineer for the HIPCAL -GWENDIA Project of the MODALIS-I3S Team, at Sophia Antipolis, under
the direction of the Doctor Johan Montagnat (CNRS).
Nowadays, I am part of the coordination on the High Performance Computing Center/lab and professor of the Systems Engineering and Informatics School of the Universidad Industrial de Santander, in Bucaramanga, Colombia.
