Professional Preparation
- Postdoctoral Assistant, Distributed Computing, University of California at San Diego, 1994-1999
- Ph.D., Computer Science, University of California at Davis, 1994
- M.S., Computer Science, University of California at Davis, 1989
- B.S., Computer Science, California Polytechnic University, 1986
Appointments
- Assistant Professor, University of California, Santa Barbara, 2001-present
- Faculty Computer Scientist, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, 2001-present
- Assistant Professor, University of Tennessee, 1999-2001
- SDSC Junior Fellow, University of Tennessee, 1994-present
- Research Professor, University of California, San Diego, 1995-1999
- Postdoctoral Researcher, University of California, San Diego, 1994-1995
Synergistic Activities
- Leader, Grid thrust in the National Partnership for Advanced
Computational Infrastructure (NPACI). As co-leader of Metasystems, Dr.
Wolski is leading an effort to make the research-grade software
artifacts he produces available to the community at large. The
technology transfer he leads benefits both the computer and
computational science communities.
- Leader, Network Weather Service Pro ject. Dr. Wolski’s research
in dynamic network performance forecasting has lead to an on-line and
supported permanent installation of the Network Weather Service–a
facility for predicting nation-wide resource load in near real-time.
