报告题目：Web-Scale Supercomputing: from Grid/P2P Networks to Massive Systems Exploring Internet Clouds

Abstract: In this talk, Dr. Hwang will assess recent advances in distributed computing and emerging Internet applications. He will present new techniques and technologies to build massively distributed systems in solving complex problems and upgrading web services. The talk covers evolutional changes from wide-area computational Grids and peer-to-peer (P2P) networks to cloud computing paradigm. In particular, he presents distributed system models, technological advances, and the demand of quantum jump in distributed supercomputing and personalized web services. The talk identifies research frontiers and reviews some current academic/industrial projects that explore massive resources over distributed datasets collected in Internet clouds dynamically in real time.

Biographical Sketch:

Dr. Kai Hwang is a Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and Director of Internet and P2P/Grid Computing Laboratory at the University of Southern California (USC). He received the Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from the University of California, Berkeley in 1972.  Prior to joining USC in 1985, he has taught at Purdue University for many years. Currently, he is on sabbatical leave from USC, serving as a Chief Scientist at the Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences and a Visiting Professor at Peking University, Beijing, China.

As an IEEE Fellow, he specializes in computer architecture, parallel processing, Internet security, and distributed computing systems. He has published 5 books and over 200 scientific papers in these areas. The CiteSeer.Continuity has ranked him at the top 0.25% of the mostly cited authors out of 790 thousand authors in Computer Science and Engineering. He is the founding Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Parallel and Distributed Computing. He is also on the Editorial Board of IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed System. He has chaired numerous ACM/IEEE International Conferences and presented two dozens of keynote addresses in these meetings. He has lectured worldwide and performed advisory work for IBM, Intel, MIT Lincoln Lab., JPL in Caltech, Academia Sinica in China, ETL in Japan, GMD in Germany, and INRIA in France.
