Szilard Pall

Szilárd Páll is an HPC software scientist at the PCD Center for High Performance Computing. He has a background in computer science and computational biophysics and has worked with GPU accelerators in scientific computing since 2008. He helped reformulate key parallel algorithms in molecular dynamics for modern processor architectures, co-authored the first heterogeneous CPU-GPU parallelization of GROMACS, and contributed to the design and implementation of many heterogeneous algorithmic and portability features since.

His recent focus is fine-grained communication for strong scaling molecular dynamics on exascale heterogeneous architectures.
