Biographical Sketch
Sudip Dosanjh is the director of the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. NERSC’s mission is to accelerate scientific discovery at the US Department of Energy’s Office of Science through high performance computing and extreme data analysis. NERSC deploys leading-edge computational and data resources for over 10,000 users from a broad range of science disciplines. NERSC will be partnering with computer companies to develop and deploy pre-exascale and exascale systems during the next decade.
Previously, he headed extreme-scale computing at Sandia National Laboratories. He was co-director of the Los Alamos/Sandia Alliance for Computing at the Extreme Scale from 2008-2012 and served on the US Department of Energy’s Exascale Initiative Steering Committee for several years.
Dosanjh had a key role in establishing co-design as a methodology for reaching exascale computing. He has numerous publications on exascale computing, co-design, computer architectures, massively parallel computing, and computational science.
He earned his bachelor’s degree in engineering physics in 1982, his master’s degree (1984) and Ph.D. (1986) in mechanical engineering, all from the University of California, Berkeley.
