Professor Takahiro Katagiri received his Associate Bachelor of Engineering (B.E.) degree from Toyota National College of Technology in 1994, his B.E. from Kyoto University in 1996, his M.Sc. degree from the University of Tokyo in 1998, and his Ph.D (in Computer Science) degree from the University of Tokyo in 2001.

His main research interests focuses on parallel matrix calculation, High Performance Computing, and software auto-tuning. He is presently professor, High Performance Computing Division, Information Technology Center, Nagoya University.

After receiving Ph.D degree, he was a project lead of Japan Science and Technology in 2001, and he moved to Graduate School of Information Systems, The University of Electro-Communications in 2002 as a research associate.

He was also a visiting scholar at University of California at Berkeley (UCB) in Computer Science Division until January 2006. The supervised professors in UCB are Prof. Katherine Yelick and Prof. James Demmel, and the host research group is Berkeley Benchmarking and OPtimization (BeBOP) group.

In 2007, he moved to Supercomputing Research Division, Information Technology Center, the University of Tokyo as an associate professor. In 2016, he moved to current position.

He is a developer of Automatically Blocking-and-Communication adjustment Library (ABCLib), ABCLibScript which is a support language for automatic code generation for numerical libraries with auto-tuning facility. He is a proponent of Framework of Install-time, Before Execute-time, and Run-time optimization layers (FIBER) for the software auto-tuning framework.

In 2011, we received Commendation for Science and Technology by the Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, Young Scientist Award for contribution of research on auto-tuning.

He is a member of ACM, IEEE, SIAM, IPSJ and JSIAM.
