openlab summer students 2009

 

Pedro Andre Cunha

openlab Summer Student, IT-GS Group, from 30/06/09 to 21/08/09

Pedro Andre Cunha is a student at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL) - Switzerland, currently attending the last year of his MSc in Computer Science. He got a BSc in Informatics Engineering from University of Coimbra - Portugal. During his openlab Summer Student Internship he designed and implemented a monitoring system for problematic data subscriptions over the Grid. The system is in production and being used by IT/GS - ATLAS DDM team.

 

Marc D'Arcy

openlab Summer Student, IT-DI Group, from 22/06/09 to 14/08/09

Marc D'Arcy has recently completed his undergraduate studies having graduated from Brunel University, West London, UK with a BEng first class honours degree in Computer Systems Engineering. Working within openlab this summer, Marc investigated the optimization potential when moving to Nehalem and future Intel architectures.  Investigations were carried out on two high energy physics applications - ROOT (Data Analysis Framework) and a multiple threaded Geant4 prototype.  Key parts of the ROOT framework were enhanced to utilize Intel IPP based functions, achieving some 30% additional performance increase at run-time. Aside from the work carried out this summer, Marc has an interest in a broad array of technologies with current research interest in embedded system design, accelerators and GPUs for computation, augmented reality and image processing technologies.

 

Hifsa Kazmi

openlab Summer Student, IT-DES Group, from 26/06/09 to 21/08/09

My name is Syeda Hifsa Kazmi and I am pursuing a bachelors degree in Computer Software Engineering from Ghulam Ishaq Khan Institute of Engineering Sciences and Technology (GIKI), Pakistan. At CERN I worked in IT-DES-SIS group on Grid Control and Change Management which was about using OEM10g Grid Control Repository views as a source of data for identifying change events, and automatically feed them into Change Management (CM) database.

 

Raquel Mendez Gomez

openlab Summer Student, IT-DES Group, from 22/06/09 to 14/08/09

Raquel Mendez Gomez is a student studying for a double major at the Universidad Autnoma de Madrid, Spain. In June 2010 she will graduate with an MEng in Computer Science and an MSc in Mathematics. She is very enthusiastic, and enjoys solving challenging problems. During her stay at CERN she was a member of the IT-DES-DIS department, working on the project "Integration of Oracle Virtualization with CERN fabric management" with the aim to integrate Oracle VM with existing fabric management system, ELFms.

 

Massimo Paladin

openlab Summer Student, IT-GS Group, from 15/06/09 to 07/08/09

Massimo Paladin is a student, he graduated from the University of Udine with a bachelors degree in Computer Science. He is currently finishing his masters degree in Computer Science at Udine with one exam and the master project left. During his openlab Summer Student Programme at CERN he worked in IT/GS/ DMA. He worked on Hammercloud, a stress-testing system to commission grid sites for distributed analysis activities. He developed a new web interface for the visualization of the stress test results with an administration part for the operators. It is now in production for the ATLAS experiment.

 

Miguel Pedreira

openlab Summer Student, IT-UDS Group, from 06/07/09 to 06/09/09

Miguel Martinez Pedreira is a student on Technical Computer Science On Systems from Universidad de Oviedo, in Asturias (Spain). With the degree project pending and planning to continue with the Superior Grade (2 more years), he has worked in IT-UDS-CDS CERN section on image migration scripts (from CERN distributed file system to CERN document server) and on metadata extraction/update plugins from/to many kind of files for the Invenio software.

 

Julien Perrochet

openlab Summer Student, IT-GS Group, from 13/07/09 to 06/09/09

Julien Perrochet is a Swiss student currently at his second Bachelor year in Communication Systems at EPFL (Federal Polytechnic School of Lausanne). He worked on a project aiming to modify the hosts and services monitoring (Nagios) architecture to tighten its binding with the current messaging system (ActiveMQ).

 

Vlad-Stefan Petre

openlab Summer Student, IT-CS Group, from 24/06/09 to 24/08/09

Vlad Stefan Petre is an undergraduate student at the Department of Computer Science within Politehnica University of Bucharest, Romania. During his stay at CERN, he was a member of the IT-CS-CT section, and he worked on developing a system for visualizing different statistical data collected by the CINBAD project.

 

Karol Pogonowski

openlab Summer Student, IT-GD Group, from 03/06/09 to 30/07/09

Karol Pogonowski is a Masters of Informatics student at College of Science and Engineering, University of Edinburgh. His main interests include ray tracing, game coding, functional programming and GPGPU computations.
At openlab, he worked on security monitoring system for the Grid called Pakiti.

 

Martin Tverdal

openlab Summer Student, IT-GS Group, from 15/06/09 to 07/08/09

 

Martin Tverdal is a master student in Computer Science at NTNU (Norwegian University of Science and Technology). He starts his 5th and final year the fall of 2009. As an openlab summer student he worked on Indico, a web based tool for managing conferences. He added a webcast request form, and a prototype of a facebook like chat.
