Team leader of Datamove, Bruno Raffin is senior research scientist at Inria.
Bruno Raffin is Director of Research at INRIA Grenoble Rhône-Alpes and leader of the DataMove team. Bruno Raffin has a PhD from the Université d’Orléans on parallel programming language design (1997). After a 2 years postdoc at Iowa State University he refocused his research on high performance interactive computing. He led the development of the FlowVR middleware for large scale data-flow oriented parallel applications, used for virtual reality, telepresence and computational steering. He recently retargeted FlowVR at in-situ analytics for large scale parallel application. He also worked on parallel algorithms and cache-efficient parallel data structures (cache oblivious mesh layouts, parallel adaptive sorting), strategies for task-based programming of multi-CPU and multi-GPU machines. He initiated and steered the multi-camera Grimage platform to develop real-time full-body 3D interactions and 3D telepresence. Today he is refocusing is research activity on high performance computing. He leads the INRIA Integrated Project Lab focused on the convergence between HPC, AI and Big Data. Bruno Raffin accounts for more than 60 international publications, advised 16 PhD students. He was responsible for INRIA of more than 15 national and European grants, was the co-founder of the Icatis startup company (2004-2008), and transferred several codes to other companies. Bruno Raffin has been involved in more than 30 program committees of international conferences. He is the head of the steering committee of the Eurographics Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualisation.
