Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Dr. Steven I Gordon is a Professor Emeritus at The Ohio State University in the City and Regional Planning and Environmental Science Programs. He also serves as the Senior Education Lead at the Ohio Supercomputer Center. In that and other roles at OSC, he has focused primarily on the integration of computational science into the curricula at higher education institutions in Ohio and throughout the U.S. He has worked with multiple institutions through a variety of grants from the National Science Foundation including the XSEDE and Blue Waters Projects.

Dr. Gordon is also one of the founders and first chair of the Association of Computing Machinery SIGHPC Education Chapter and serves as a presentative of the SIGHPC on the ACM Education Council. He has published extensively on topics related to environmental planning and the applications of modeling and simulation in education and research. He earned a bachelor’s degree from the University of Buffalo in 1966 and a PhD from Columbia University in 1977.

Brian Guilfoos serves as the HPC Client Services manager for the Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC). Guilfoos leads the HPC Client Services Group, which provides training and user support to facilitate the use of computational science by the center's user communities. Guilfoos also works directly with OSC clients to help convert computer codes, develop batch scripting, compiling and code development so that these researchers can efficiently use the center's supercomputers and licensed software.

Guilfoos developed and delivered training in MATLAB as a part of the U.S. Department of Defense High Performance Computing Modernization Program support. Prior to joining OSC, he was contracted by the Air Force Research Laboratory to focus on software development in support of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) interface research. He was a key technical member of a team that was awarded the 2004 Scientific and Technological Achievement Award by the AFRL Human Effectiveness Directorate. He earned a master's degree in public policy and administration in 2014 and a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering in 2000, both from The Ohio State University.
