About

Dr. Ezhilmathi Krishnasamy is a researcher at the University of Ljubljana and the Rudolfovo Science and Technology Center. He also holds a position as an Adjunct Lecturer at the University of Luxembourg. Previously, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Computer Science at the Faculty of Science and Technology, University of Luxembourg.He is currently working on hybrid quantum computing for solving large-scale linear systems. He is also presently coordinating the HEXAPIC HEXAPIC project, which focuses on plasma simulations (Particle-In-Cell) leveraging hexascale computing capabilities. In addition to his work on HEXAPIC, he is actively involved in the EuroCC and EUmaster4HPC projects at the University of Luxembourg. As part of the EuroCC initiative, Dr. Krishnasamy contributes to educational and training activities in Luxembourg. Through EUmaster4HPC, he oversees the design and implementation of the curriculum for the Master's program in High-Performance Computing (HPC).

Previously, he coordinated the PRACE-6IP project at the University of Luxembourg, which consists of eight work packages, four of which the university is actively participating in. His contributions include producing research articles on emerging trends in computer architecture and parallel programming, as well as engaging in research and teaching related to HPC.

Before his time in Luxembourg, Dr. Krishnasamy earned a PhD in Computer Science, focusing on High Performance Scientific Computing in Applications with Direct Finite Element Simulation. He spent three years at KTH in Sweden and an additional year at BCAM in Bilbao, Spain, working towards his PhD. Additionally, he has extensive knowledge in chemical engineering, energy and environmental engineering, and mechanical engineering. He also holds a master's degree in education from Linköping University in Sweden.
