Dr. Alan O'Cais has been active in the field of computational research and high performance computing since receiving his bachelors degree in Theoretical Physics from Trinity College Dublin in 2001. He received a Masters Degree in High Performance Computing in 2002 and a PhD in Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics in 2005, both from Trinity College. He has held research positions at Trinity College and the University of Adelaide. In 2008 he joined the Cyprus Institute as Scientific Coordinator and in 2010 moved to Juelich Supercomputing Centre where he works within the Application Support division. His work is primarily focussed within the LinkSCEEM-2 project helping to develop a Virtual Research Community in Computational Science in the Eastern Mediterranean region.
Christian Rössel has been active in the field of computer simulation and performance analysis since his time as a student at Cologne University from where he received his Diploma in Physics in 2004. After a year working as a consultant and software engineer for the Münster University of Applied Sciences he moved to PTV AG in Karlsruhe where he joint the traffic simulation development team. From 2009 on he works as a scientific staff member at the Jülich Supercomputing Centre, reinforcing the Helmholtz-University Young Investigators Group "Performance Analysis of Parallel Programs". His work is primarily focused within the SILC project developing the next generation measurement system for the performance analysis tools Scalasca, Vampir, TAU and Periscope.
