Paul Spirakis
Computer Technology Institute of Greece
Paul Spirakis obtained his Ph. D. from Harvard University in 1982. He
became a full Professor at the University of Patras, Greece in 1990. He
is currently the director of the Computer Technology Institute of Greece.
He won the top prize of the Greek Math Association in 1973, and is a Distinguished
Visiting Scientist of Max Planck Informatik. His research interests include
probabilistic algorithms, parallel and distributed algorithms and network
protocols, exact analysis of algorithms, algorithms for mobile computing,
and experimental algorithms as well as complexity of problems. He is a
member of the Council of EATCS, the Greek representative in the European
Union for Information Society and a consultant to the Greek State, the
EU as well as to major Greek firms in Informatics. He is a member of scientific
program or steering committees of the major conferences in his field. He
is also a member of ACM, EATCS, Math Society of America, and the Greek
Computer Society.

KEYNOTE ADDRESS
"Whither
MPI: Lessons From and the Future of MPI"
William Gropp
Argonne National Laboratory
William Gropp received Ph. D. in Computer Science from Stanford University
in 1982. He is a Senior Computer Scientist and Associate Director of the
Mathematics and Computer Science Division at Argonne, a Senior Scientist
in the Dept. of Computer Science at the University of Chicago, and a senior
fellow in the Argonne-University of Chicago Computation Institute. His
research interests are in parallel computing, software for scientific computing,
and numerical methods for partial differential equations. Dr. Gropp has
played a major role in the development of the MPI message-passing standard.
He is co-author of MPICH, the most widely used implementation of MPI, and
was involved in the MPI Forum as a chapter author for both MPI-1 and MPI-2.
He has written many books and papers on MPI, including "Using MPI" and
"Using MPI-2". Dr. Gropp is also one of the designers of the PETSc parallel
numerical library and has developed efficient and scalable parallel algo-rithms
for the solution of linear and nonlinear equations. In addition, he is
involved in several other advanced computing projects, including performance
modeling, data structure modifi-cation for ultra-high-performance computers,
and development of component-based soft-ware to promote interoperability
among numerical toolkits.
