Welcome to my corner of cyberspace

Juan Manuel Cebrián González is an Associate Researcher in University of Murcia. He was born in Albacete, Spain, in 1982. Got his B.Sc in Computer Engineering on July 2006 (University of Murcia), M.Sc in July 2007 (University of Murcia) and finished his Ph.D on September 2011 (University of Murcia) with the qualification of Summa Cum Laude founded by a four year grant from the Spanish Ministry of Education. The Thesis title was Efficient Power and Thermal Management using Fine-grain Architectural Approaches in Multicores, and his research advisors were : Prof. Juan Luis Aragón and Prof. Stefanos Kaxiras.

He has several publications on international and national conferences (IPDPS'09 & 11, Europar'11, ARCS'10) and journals (Journal of Supercomputing). He has two year teaching experience on Operating Systems Administration and his skill set tools include: Simplescalar, Wattch, HotLeakage, Hotspot, McPAT, GEMS (Opal + Ruby).

"I've always liked electronics and gadgets since I was a child, mainly because of the perfect balance between complexity and precision of their components. Nowadays we can do work that would take ages for a single person to perform thanks to these devices. So my hobby turned out into my career and after I finished my degree in Computer Architecture I was given the oportunity by Prof. Juan Luis Aragón and Prof. José M. García to do my Ph.D. My research interests lay in the field of Computer Architecture, particularly in parallel architectures, power dissipation and energy efficiency."

Currently, his research focuses on the design of energy efficient heterogeneous multicores inside the GACOP group. "Our goal in this project is to optimize hardware selection based on computational patterns and then optimize the selected hardware to the program specific needs."
