Celso L. Mendes

Department of Computer Science
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

 I'm a Research Scientist working with the PPL research group, lead by Prof.Kale. I received the degrees of Electronics Engineer and Master in Engineering from ITA, Brazil, in 1980 and 1988 respectively, and a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Illinois, in 1997. Between 1982 and 2000, I worked as an Engineer at INPE, a research institute of the brazilian space agency.

Research:

 My research interests are centered in the area of High Performance Computing. The focus of my work in the last few years has been performance analysis of sequential and parallel systems. More recently, I have also been involved in specific research targeting the use of Grids as high performance, heterogeneous computing engines.
