1963 年生。1986年東京大学理学部情報科学科卒、1989年同大学大学院博士課程から、学情報科学科助手に採用、同大学情報工学専攻講師を経て、1996年に東京工業大学情報理工学研究科数理・計算科学専攻助教授。1998年より科学技術振興財団のさきがけ研究員を併任。2001年4月に東京工業大学学術国際情報センターにおいてスーパーコンピュータ等を司る研究基盤部門の教授となる。博士(理学)(東京大学)。

高性能システム、並列処理、グリッド計算、クラスタ計算機、高性能・並列オブジェクト指向言語処理系、などの研究に従事。ソフトウェアの技術開発によりコモディティ技術の大幅な活用で従来の100倍の計算パワーを計算科学に広域に提供することを目指す。

現在進行中のプロジェクトは、(1) 産業技術総合研究所などと共同して種々のグリッド計算のプロジェクト(Ninf, GFarmプロジェクトなど)、(2) 大規模コモディティPCクラスタ構築プロジェクト(Presto クラスタ群)、並びに (3) 計算環境に適合・最適化を目指すJava言語の開放型 Just-In-TimeコンパイラOpenJIT, JDSMなど。1996年度情報処理学会論文賞、1999年情報処理学会坂井記念賞受賞。国際学会 ISOTAS'96, ECOOP'97, ISCOPE'99のプログラム委員長やReflection2001の大会委員長などを勤めｌ2002年においてはACM OOPSLA'2002のプログラム委員長。また、 Global Grid ForumのSteering Group委員並びにArea Directorを勤める。情報処理学会、ソフトウェア科学会、ACM,IEEE-CS各会員。

Satoshi Matsuoka received his B.C., M.S., and Ph. D. from the Information Science Department of the University of Tokyo in 1986, 1988, and 1993, respectively.

He became an Assistant Professor at the Information Engineering Department at the University of Tokyo in 1993, and after moving to the Associate Professorship position at the Department of Mathematical and Computing Sciences, Tokyo Institute of Technology in 1996, he is now a full Professor at the Global Scientific Information and Computing Center (GSIC) of Tokyo Institute of Technology (Titech) from April 2001, leading the Problem Solving Environment Group which oversees the supercomputng needs of the Titech campus.

His primary interests are high-performance software systems in general, including large-scale commodity clustering, global-scale "Grid" computing, as well as use of object-oriented technologies in high-performance settings. His current research projects include (1) the Ninf project, a high-performance GridRPC system in collaboration with AIST, Japan, (2) Plug&Play clustering project scaling clusters to hundreds of thousands of nodes, (3) the GFarm project which aims to achieve Petascale data processing on a federation of storage clusters on the Grid for data intensive application such as high-energy physics, as well as (4) the Java OpenJIT project, which applies reflection technology to a Java Just-In-Time compiler for parallel platform-specific customization and optimization.

He has been a program and general chairs of various international conferences including ISOTAS'96, ECOOP'97, ISCOPE'99, and Reflection'2001, and will be the program chair of ACM OOPSLA'2002. He has been the Steering Group member of the Global Grid Forum since 1999. He has received the Sakai award for research excellence from the Information Processing Society of Japan in 1999.

He is a member of ACM and IEEE Computer Society, as well as having served or serving several editorial positions of international journals.
