Biographical Sketch
|
|
Professor Zubair earned his PhD in
Electrical Engineering at IITD in 1987 specializing in systolic architectures for high performance
computing. Prof. Zubair has more than twenty years of research experience in the area of experimental computer science and engineering
both at the university as well as at the Industry. His primary area of interest is in the area of high performance computing and
management of large information. His major industrial assignment was at IBM T.J. Watson Research center for three years,
where his research focus was in high performance computing and some of his work was integrated into IBM products.
His current interests are in developing high performance algorithms for multicore architectures such as GPU, and Intel Multicore Systems.
He has been successful in obtaining funds to support his research work from NASA, NSF, DTIC, ARPA, Jefferson Laboratory, Los Alamos, AFRL, NRL, JTASC, Sun Microsystems, and IBM Corporation.
