Marisa Gil, Associate Professor, has been at the Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya since 1988. She received her Ph.D. in computer science from the Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya in 1994.
Prof. Gil is a member of HiPEAC, the European Network of Excellence on High-Performance Embedded Architecture and Compilation. She is also a Senior Member of the ACM and a Senior Member of the IEEE (IEEE Education , IEEE Computer Society and IEEE WIE). She has served on the board of Spanish IEEE Education. She is also co-founder of MuIN (Network Spanish Women in Informatics).
Marisa Gil's research is primarily concerned with the design and implementation of system software for parallel computing, to improve resource management. Her work focus mainly in the area of OS, middleware and runtime multicore architectures support. She is participating in the HiPEAC Network of Excellence and in the SARC European project.
Research topics are:
Operating systems for multicore heterogeneous systems, and parallel applications support on runtime.
Resource management at various component levels and for different execution environments to improve the performance at runtime.
Doctoral Positions
Preferred candidates should have computer architecture and operating systems skills. If interested please send a short application including CV, statement of research experience and interests to marisa@ac.upc.edu.
