Prof. Dr. Estela Suarez is a Professor of High Performance Computing at the Institute for Computer Science, University of Bonn (W2 in the Jülich Model) and Joint Lead of the Division "Novel System Architecture Design" at the Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC), Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH. She also leads the Research Group "Next Generation Architectures and Prototypes" at JSC and serves as Spokesperson of Helmholtz Information Program 1, Topic 2. Currently on sabbatical during the 2024/2025 and 2025 academic years, she remains active in research leadership roles. 2010: PhD in Physics from University of Geneva, Switzerland 2004: Master in Physics, Specialization in Astrophysics, University Complutense of Madrid, Spain Professor Suarez specializes in high performance computing with particular expertise in heterogeneous HPC system architectures and modular supercomputing architecture (MSA). Her research spans hardware prototyping and evaluation, system software development, operational data analysis, and co-design methodologies. She has pioneered approaches to address hardware heterogeneity through system-wide orchestration of diverse computing resources, enabling more efficient scientific computing across multiple domains. Her work bridges theoretical computer architecture with practical implementation challenges in exascale computing environments, focusing on real-world applications that require specialized hardware configurations. Professor Suarez's publication record shows a clear evolution from foundational work on the DEEP project (2016) through the development of modular supercomputing concepts (2019-2021) to current applications across diverse scientific domains (2022-2024). Her recent publications demonstrate how modular architectures can be effectively applied to climate modeling, neuroscience simulations, quantum chemistry calculations, and other computationally intensive fields. This trend highlights her focus on practical implementation challenges and the growing importance of adaptable computing architectures in modern scientific research. 2023/2024 Lehrpreis der Universität Bonn: UniBonn teaching award Professor Suarez has secured significant research funding through major projects including NUMERIQS (Projects A05, B02, and Z02), European Processor Initiative (EPI), DEEP-SEA (Software for Exascale Architectures), IFCES2 (optimization of simulation algorithms for exascale supercomputers), and AIDAS (virtual laboratory between Forschungszentrum Jülich and CEA on AI and data analytics). While currently not accepting new students due to sabbatical, she has previously mentored graduate students in high performance computing techniques and has delivered numerous invited lectures at international conferences. Professor Suarez leads the "Next Generation Architectures and Prototypes" research group at JSC and serves as Joint Lead of the "Novel System Architecture Design" division. She chairs the Research and Innovation Advisory Group (RIAG) from EuroHPC Joint Undertaking since 2024. Her work involves close collaboration with international research teams on advancing supercomputing architectures, including contributions to the University of Bonn's new HPC system "Marvin" which ranks on both the TOP500 and GREEN500 lists.
