Eric comes to CIG with a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Osaka University, a B.S. in Computer Science from UC Berkeley, and a background in optimization of parallel computing simulations in biophysical and geophysical simulations. <br></div><br><div>Over the coming weeks, Eric will be getting to know CIG codes and CIG operations. I've asked Eric to take a look at CitComS in particular, as there has been an interest expressed by the CIG working group for new benchmarks in this well-established code.<br></div><br><div>Eric will attend the AGU meeting in December, where he will have a chance to meet many of you in person.<br></div><br><div>Best wishes,<br></div><br><div>Louise<br></div></div></span><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"></div></div><br><div>
