Leonardo Bautista Gomez
Senior Research Scientist
Barcelona Supercomputing Center
Dr. Leonardo Bautista Gomez is a Senior Research Scientist at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center, where he works on multiple H2020 European projects related to resilience, energy efficiency and multilevel storage systems for high performance computing. In 2016 he was awarded a European Marie Curie fellowship on Deep memory Ubiquity, Resilience and Optimization. In addition he was awarded the 2016 IEEE TCSC Award for Excellence in Scalable Computing (Early Career Researcher). Before moving to BSC he was a postdoctoral researcher for three years at the Argonne National Laboratory, where he investigated data corruption detection techniques and error propagation. Prior to that he did his Ph.D. in resilience for supercomputers at the Tokyo Institute of Technology. He developed a scalable multilevel checkpointing library called the Fault Tolerance Interface (FTI) to guarantee application resilience at extreme scale, work that earned the 2011 ACM and IEEE George Michael Memorial High Performance Computing Ph.D. Fellowship at the Supercomputing Conference 2011 with an Honorable Mention, and a Special Certificate of Recognition for a perfect score at SC11. In Japan he was awarded the Japanese Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) Research Fellowship for Young Scientists. Before moving to Tokyo Tech he graduated in Distributed Systems and Applications from the Paris 6 University, Pierre and Marie Curie, and earlier obtained a Bachelor in Computer Science from the same university.
