Biography
Dr. Ahmad Tarraf is a senior researcher in computational science at the Technical University of Darmstadt (TUDa), where he has worked since 2021 on performance prediction, behavioral modeling, and optimization of High-Performance Computing (HPC) applications and systems within the Laboratory for Parallel Programming. His research focuses on efficient file and storage systems, malleability, performance analysis, and machine learning in HPC.He has contributed to several national and EuroHPC projects, including ADMIRE and DEEP-SEA, and is currently pursuing his habilitation.
Education
Dr. Tarraf earned his B.Sc. in Mechatronics Engineering from RHU Lebanon in 2013 and his M.Sc. in Mechatronics Engineering from TUDa in 2016. In 2017, he joined the Institute of Computer Science at the University of Frankfurt as a research assistant, exploring the formal abstraction and verification of analog mixed-signal circuits. He received his doctoral degree (Dr. rer. nat.) in Computer Science from the University of Frankfurt in early 2021, graduating Magna Cum Laude.
