Biography
Dr. Kazuya Yamazaki is an assistant professor at the Information Technology Center (ITC) at the University of Tokyo. His research focuses on accelerating meteorological simulations on GPU-equipped systems using OpenACC. Recent work includes reducing kernel launch overheads while maintaining code readability and leveraging host CPU cores in fully GPU-ported applications.
As ITC transitions its supercomputing infrastructure to GPU-based architectures, he actively supports the migration of CPU-based simulation codes to GPUs. He offers tailored guidance to developers, drawing on his extensive experience in optimizing meteorological models. He earned his PhD in atmospheric sciences from the University of Tokyo in 2023, specializing in meteorological simulation, and joined ITC later that year.
