Michael Ott received his PhD in computer science from Technische Universität München in 2010 for his work in high performance bioinformatics. Before he joined the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ) in 2012 he was a postdoc with the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) in Canberra, Australia. He is now a senior researcher in the “High-Performance Systems” division of LRZ and mainly involved in EU projects such as DEEP, Mont-Blanc, and PRACE and also leads the Energy Efficiency Working Group in the ETP4HPC. His research focuses on energy-efficiency and scalable monitoring, but he still keeps up an interest in bioinformatics, computer architecture, and parallel programming.
