Presenter

Aurelien Bouteiller is currently a researcher at the Innovative Computing Laboratory at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. He received is PhD from the University of Paris in 2006 on the subject of rollback recovery fault tolerance. His research is focused on improving performance and reliability of distributed memory systems. Toward that goal, he investigated automatic (message-logging-based) checkpointing approaches in MPI, algorithm-based fault tolerance approaches and their runtime support, mechanisms to improve communication speed and balance within nodes of many-core clusters, and employing emerging data flow programming models to negate the raise of jitter on large-scale systems. These works resulted in over 30 publications in international conferences and journals and three distinguished paper awards from IPDPS and EuroPar. Aurelien is also a contributor to Open MPI and one of the leading designers of MPI Forum efforts toward fault-tolerance interfaces.
