Richard Vuduc is a professor and long-time high-performance computing (HPC) researcher based in Atlanta with 17 years of professional experience and a Ph.D. from UC Berkeley. He builds practical, high-impact systems and libraries—such as the OSKI sparse matrix autotuning work from his Berkeley postdoc—that substantially close the gap between theoretical peak performance and real-world throughput. At Georgia Tech he leads an academic lab focused on "supercomputing" research, blending deep compiler, program-analysis, and numerical-kernel expertise from his time at LLNL and Berkeley. Known for a playful, approachable voice about serious technical problems, he combines rigorous research with an emphasis on tools that make performance portability and automatic tuning usable for end users.
