Tommaso Marinelli

Tommaso Marinelli obtained the M.Sc in Electronic Engineering in 2018 from Politecnico di Torino, Italy.

Specialized in digital systems design, he had the opportunity to expand his knowledge by studying in different countries (Italy, Belgium and Spain) and covering a wide series of topics.

At this time he is enrolled in a dual PhD programme at UCM and KU Leuven in collaboration with Imec, working towards architectural and system level optimizations for integration of new memory technologies in CPU cache hierarchies. Some of his other research interests include high-speed and low-power electronic systems, VLSI, microelectronics and cryptography.

Sandra Catalán Pallarés

Sandra Catalán received the B.Sc. degree, M.Sc. Degree in Intelligent Systems and Ph.D. in Computer Science in 2012, 2013 and 2018, respectively, from the Universitat Jaume I of Castelló, Spain. Her current research is focused on energy saving on moderate-scale clusters and low-power processors, parallel algorithms for numerical linear algebra and asymmetric architectures. She has also been a visiting researcher at the Foundations of Cognitive Computing group at IBM Research—Zurich, Switzerland, at the University of Texas in Austin, USA, and the Parallel Programming Models group of the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) in Barcelona, Spain.

Rafael Rodríguez Sánchez

In February 2013, I got my PhD in Computer Science at Universidad de Castilla-La Macha. At the same University, I previously got my BS and MS degrees in 2008 and 2010, respectively. In April 2013, I got the Spanish Credential to become Assistant Profesor, in November 2016 to become Associate Professor (tenured, non-civil servant) and in November 2020 to become Associate Professor (tenured, civil servant). Since November 2017, I am Assistant Professor at Universidad Complutense de Madrid.

In January 2008, I joined the Redes y Arquitecturas de Altas prestaciones (RAAP) group led by Professor Francisco José Quiles Flor at Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha. In this research group I developed all the research related to my thesis. During these years my main research focus was to accelerate video coding/transcoding by using heterogeneous architectures such as GPUs. In June 2013, I moved to the Universidad Jaime I de Castellon as a post-doctoral researcher joining the High Performance Computing & Architectures (HPC&A) group led by Professor Enrique Quintana Ortí. During these years I continued with my previous research lines as well as I started new ones: i) energy aware computation; ii) analysis/optimization of numerical algorithms for multi-core processors (both symmetric or asymmetric) or accelerator (DSPs, GPUs and FPGA). Finally, in November 2017 I joined the Architecture and Technology of Computing Systems (ArTeCS) group lead by Professor José Francisco Tirado Fernández of Universidad Complutense de Madrid.  Furthermore, I have performed two research stays: i) Ghent University (Belgium) ii) ARM Ltd. (United Kingdom).

From 2013 to present,  I have been teaching BS subjects such as Computer architectures, Operating systems or Computer networks. Furthermore, I have been co-advisor  of a PhD thesis qualified as Excelente Cum Laude.

As a researcher I have been a collaborating researcher in an European project, in 7 projects of the Spanish National Plan of R + D + i, in 1 project financed by the Board of Communities of Castilla-La Mancha, in 1 project financed by Community of Madrid, in 2 projects of the Bancaja-UJI foundation and in 4 non-competitive R + D + i projects financed by administrations or public or private entities. Focusing on the results, I am author or co-author of 22 papers published in international journals (all indexed in the JCR index), and of 29 papers published in national or international conference proceedings. In addition, I am an active reviewer in several relevant journals (Parallel Computing, IEEE transactions on Multimedia, IEEE transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology…) and conferences (SBAC-PAD, EUROMICRO, SAMOS, ISPA, PPAM, …). Moreover, I have taken part in the Technical program committee of some of them (EUROMICRO, CLEI).

Marina Zapater Sancho

I am currently Visiting Professor in the Department of Computer Architecture and Automation at Complutense University of Madrid (UCM). On the academic year 2014-2015 I was part-time lecturer at UCM. My research takes place in the ArTeCS group of UCM, but I am also part of the GreenLSI team at the Integrated Systems Lab (LSI) and the Center for Computational Simulation (CCS) of Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. I am also a post-doc researcher at the ESL group of École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, with Prof. David Atienza, with whom I’ve been collaborating since Fall 2015.

Marina @Boston

I received my PhD degree on April 2015 from Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. My thesis was on “Proactive and Reactive Thermal Aware Optimization Techniques to minimize the Environmental Impact of data centers”, was awarded Cum Laude.  My PhD Thesis was advised by Prof. José M. Moya and Prof. José L. Ayala, and was funded by a fellowship of the International Program for Attracting Talent (PICATA) of the Moncloa Campus of International Excellence.

On summer 2012 I did a 15-week research stay at the Performance and Energy-Aware Computing Lab. at Boston University under the supervision of Prof. Ayse K. Coskun. On fall 2014 I visited Prof. Coskun again for a 3-month period with a HiPEAC collaboration grant. Since 2012, we have published several papers together and our collaborating keeps on going.

I got a Master of Science in Electronic Engineering and a Master of Science in Telecommunication Engineering, both by ETSETB at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya on 2010.
