Foster (born 1959 in Wellington, New Zealand). He is a New Zealand-American computer scientist and the Director of the Computation Institute in Chicago, Illinois. He is also a Distinguished Fellow and Senior Scientist in the Mathematics and Computer Science Division at Argonne National Laboratory, and a Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Chicago. == Education and career == Foster was educated at Wellington College and the University of Canterbury in New Zealand, and Imperial College London. In 2006, he was appointed director of the Computation Institute, a joint project between the University of Chicago, and Argonne. There, Foster brings together computational scientists and discipline thought leaders to work on a wide range of projects with computation as a key component. CI research efforts include the (Center for Robust Decision Making on Climate and Energy Policy ), which combines the best of modern computational and economic science to guide climate and energy policy, and the (Urban Center for Computation and Data ), which seeks to optimize the operation of cities and anticipate the impact of their growth using computational methods and tools. Foster's honors include the Lovelace Medal of the British Computer Society, the Gordon Bell Prize for high-performance computing (2001), and the IEEE Tsutomu Kanai Award (2011). He was elected Fellow of the British Computer Society in 2001, Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 2003, and in 2009, a Fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery, who named him the inaugural recipient of the (High-Performance Parallel and Distributed Computing (HPDC) Achievement Award ) in 2012. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ian Foster」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
