Vivek Sarkar is the John P. Imlay, Jr. Dean of the College of Computing at Georgia Institute of Technology and a professor in the School of Computer Science. He leads the Habanero Extreme Scale Software Research Laboratory, focusing on parallel computing, programming languages, compilers, and runtime systems. Previously, he was a Professor and Chair of Computer Science at Rice University and held senior roles at IBM Research, where he contributed to projects like the X10 programming language and the Jikes Research Virtual Machine. Research Interests: His work spans parallel computing software, including programming languages (e.g., X10, Habanero-Java), compiler optimizations, runtime systems, and debugging tools for high-performance systems. He emphasizes scalability and correctness in distributed and heterogeneous environments. Awards & Affiliations: ACM Fellow (2008), IEEE Fellow, Ken Kennedy Award (2011), member of the US Department of Energy’s ASCAC, and former IBM Academy of Technology member. He chairs the Center for Research into Novel Computing Hierarchies (CRNCH) at Georgia Tech. Grants & Students: His research is supported by NSF grants. He advises students in parallel computing, with openings for researchers interested in his lab’s work on asynchronous systems, graph processing, and quantum-classical programming. Labs & Projects: Habanero Lab, CRNCH, and collaborations on Chapel runtime systems, actor-based programming models, and exascale computing challenges.
