Julien Jaeger is a research engineer at CEA and in the LIHPC. After defending its Ph.D. at the University of Versailles Saint-Quentin-En-Yvelines, he joined the MPC team at CEA in 2012, to work on its MPI implementation. From 2019 to 2022, he lead the MPC team working in parallel programming languages such as MPI and OpenMP, their scheduling and interactions on supercomputers. He is an active member of the MPI Forum, participating in designing the new versions of the MPI Standard.
Julien Jaeger est un ingénieur-chercheur du CEA et du LIHPC. Il a rejoint l’équipe MPC au CEA en 2012, après avoir soutenu sa thèse en Informatique à l’Université de Versailles Saint-Quentin-En-Yvelines la même année. Depuis 2019, il est à la tête de l’équipe MPC travaillant sur les modèles de programmation parallèle comme MPI et OpenMP, leur ordonnancement et leurs interactions sur les supercalculateurs HPC. Il est un membre actif du MPI Forum, participant aux nouvelles versions du standard MPI.
Teaching
In the last decade, Julien Jaeger has taught multiple topics in the field of Programming Languages and HPC. Currently, he is the head of the following courses
- TOP (UVSQ) – Techniques d’Optimisation de la Parallélisation (Methods for parallel program optimization) : this course gives tips on how to improve parallel programs (MPI, threads, hybrid MPI+X), how to measure a parallel programs, what you should care about in a parallel program, and some insights about implementations and interactions between multiple runtime.
- APM (UVSQ) – Architecture et Programmation d’accélérateurs Matériels (Hardware accelerators Architecture and Programming) : this course introduces hardware accelerators such as GPUs, their characteristics and differences with CPUs. Programming languages for accelerators are also taught, with a focus on CUDA, OpenMP and OpenACC, and introductions to OpenCL, SYCL and Kokkos.
- PPD (ENSIIE) – Programmation Parallèle Distribuée (Distributed Parallelism Programming) : this course presents parallel programming for distributed memory. It mainly focuses on MPI covering both basic and advanced topics (point-to-point, collective and one-sided communications; blocking, nonblocking, persistent and partitioned communications; dataypes; IOs). This course also provides an introduction to high speed networks and the network topologies found in nowadays supercomputers, to RDMA, to PGAS models, and to the MPI Forum.
Publications
His research topics focus on parallel programming, scheduling, interactions between runtime, and tools for parallel programming.
