Bio
A senior research scientist for the School of Computer Science in the College of Computing at the Georgia Institute of Technology, Matthew Wolf researches high-performance, scalable applications and is particularly focused on high performance I/O and adaptive event middlewares. Wolf’s focus is to solve real-world problems in application domains like interactive scientific computation, real-time and embedded systems, and operational information systems in the enterprise domain. Particular research projects and contributions include ADIOS, a high performance I/O library jointly developed by Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Georgia Tech, the HERMES information system for dynamic web-scale data management, and contributions towards dynamic, cloud-scale monitoring. Wolf is a member of the Center for Experimental Research in Computer Systems (CERCS) and a founding co-lead of the Korvo Research Group. He also holds a joint appointment with Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
Organizations that have sponsored Wolf's work include the National Science Foundation, Department of Energy, Intel, HP, and Cisco, among others. Additionally -- through activities such as the ACM Computer Science Education Conference SigCSE, the SuperComputing conference’s educational program, and the development of the cross-cutting Educational Alliance for a Parallel Future (EAPF) -- Wolf has worked both to demonstrate Georgia Tech’s leadership on the national educational forefront and to improve the support for curricular innovation on behalf of Georgia Tech’s students. A visible instance of this external impact is the ACM Tech Pack on Parallel Computing, for which Wolf both served as a contributor and as one of two co-editors.
