Vijay S Kumar is a PhD student in Computer Science at The Ohio State University. He is a research associate at the Multiscale Computing Lab, at the Biomedical Informatics Department at OSU, advised by Prof. Joel Saltz. His research interests include high-performance computing for data-intensive applications with a focus on runtime performance optimizations for workflow-based analysis of very large image data using parallel and distributed computing resources.

At LLNL, Vijay is working with mentors Ghaleb Abdulla and Maya Gokhale studying the applicability of new storage-intensive computing architectures to support the extreme performance requirements of the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) project. Specifically, he is emulating the near real-time object association part of the LSST analysis pipeline.

Prior to enrollment at OSU, Vijay received a B.E.(Hons.) in Computer Science and an M.Sc.(Hons.) in Chemistry from the Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani, India in 2003.
