Network for Computational Nanotechnology, Purdue University
Gerhard Klimeck is the Associate Director for Technologies of the Network for Computational Nanotechnology at Purdue University and a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering since Dec. 2003. He guides the technical developments and strategies of nanoHUB.org which served over 89,000 users worldwide with on-line simulation, tutorials, and seminars in the year 2008. He was the Technical Group Supervisor of the High Performance Computing Group and a Principal Scientist at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Previously he was a member of technical staff at the Central Research Lab of Texas Instruments where he served as manager and principal architect of the Nanoelectronic Modeling (NEMO 1-D ) program. At JPL and Purdue Gerhard developed the Nanoelectronic Modeling tool (NEMO 3-D ) for multimillion atom simulations. At Purdue his group is developing a new simulation engine that combines the NEMO 1-D and NEMO 3-D capabilities into a new code entitled OMEN. His research interest is in the modeling of nanoelectronic devices, parallel cluster computing, and genetic algorithms. Dr. Klimeck received his Ph.D. in 1994 from Purdue University and his German electrical engineering degree in 1990 from Ruhr-University Bochum. Dr. Klimeck's work is documented in over 220 peer-reviewed publications and over 360 conference presentations. He is a senior member of IEEE and member of APS, HKN and TBP.
NEMO 1-D was recently demonstrated to scale to 23,000 parallel processors, NEMO 3-D was demonstrated to scale to 8,1892 processors, and OMEN was demonstrated to scale to 59,904 processors. More information about NEMO 1-D, NEMO 3-D, and OMEN can be found at their respective home pages.
