Research Scientist, Architecture and Performance Group, Oak Ridge National Laboratory

Main research focus: Improving HPC runtimes using memory-centric performance models.

Short Bio: I am currently working as a Research Scientist at the Architecture and Performance group, Oak Ridge National Laboratory. I recently finished PhD in Computer Science from University of Oregon, USA. During PhD, I worked with the Future Technology Group of Oak Ridge National Laboratory, USA. My research interest spans multiple domains of High-Performance Computing (HPC), like memory-centric performance modeling, heterogeneous systems, and dynamic adaptation in HPC runtimes. Before starting my PhD at UO, I worked at Grameenphone Ltd - Telenor for 9 years as a lead engineer. I received my MS and BSc degrees respectively from North South University and Khulna University of Engineering & Technology, Bangladesh.

Research Interest in HPC domain

    • Memory-centric performance modeling

    • Heterogeneous Systems and runtimes for HPC.

    • Performance measurement and analysis in HPC environment.

    • Dynamic adaptation of runtime parameters.

    • Energy efficient algorithms.

Memory Contention aware kernel collocation for shared memory heterogeneous systems

The objective of my research at ORNL is to study the impact of memory contention on energy and performance in the heterogeneous system on Chips. In recent times, the use of heterogeneous systems on a chip is on the rise. The most interesting fact about this kind of heterogeneous systems is that all the processors share single system memory. So, whenever all the processors want to communicate to the system memory there should be memory access contention, stalling, and delay. As said earlier, the main objection of my current research is to investigate this contention and try to find out a solution to reduce the impact of contention and ensure a better energy and performance outcome.
