Diglio A. Simoni
Diglio A. Simoni is a senior computational
scientist and leader of the new HPC Group within the
Bioinformatics Program at RTI International.
Diglio
A. Simoni began his career working on
Hypercube MIMD concurrent supercomputers with Prof.
Geoffrey Fox at NASA/Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
For the
past 20 years Diglio A. Simoni has been
involved in various projects involving computational
seismology and geophysics (Carnegie Institution of
Washington), computational electromagnetism (JPL),
computational magnetohydrodynamics (Caltech),
computational fluid dynamics (NASA Ames),
computational neuroscience (VA Medical Center),
computational linguistics (YellowBrix, Inc.) and
more recently computational epidemiology ( RTI
International).
Diglio
A. Simoni 's currently guides various
participants of the NIH Models of Infectious Disease
Agent Study (MIDAS) research network in the
efficient use of large supercomputing resources, in
particular those related to the NSF TeraGrid .
Diglio
A. Simoni is Co-PI of a TeraGrid MRAC and
either PI or Co-PI of various other TeraGrid DACs
for projects involving the implementation of
computational epidemiology codes on the several
TeraGrid architectures, including Condor, SMP
machines and MPI-based fully distributed
architectures.
Diglio
A. Simoni was a grand prize winner at
TeraGrid ’06 in which he proposed the use of
TeraGrid resources for supporting national-level
models of infectious disease that span 12 orders is
magnitude in spatiotemporal scale.
