Xueyan Tang received the B.Eng. degree in computer science and engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 1998, and the Ph.D. degree in computer science from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 2003. He is currently an Associate Professor in the School of Computer Engineering at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. He is an associate editor of IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems. He has also served as a program co-chair of the 18th IEEE International Conference on Parallel and Distributed Systems (ICPADS 2012). His research interests include distributed systems, mobile and pervasive computing, and wireless sensor networks.
Wentong Cai is a Professor in the School of Computer Engineering at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. He is also the Director of the Parallel and Distributed Computing Centre. He received his Ph.D. in Computer Science from University of Exeter (UK) in 1991. His expertise is mainly in the areas of Modeling and Simulation (particularly, modeling and simulation of large-scale complex systems, and system support for distributed simulation and virtual environments) and Parallel and Distributed Computing (particularly, Cloud, Grid and Cluster computing). He has published extensively in these areas and has received a number of best paper awards at the international conferences for his research in distributed simulation. He is an associate editor of the ACM Transactions on Modeling and Computer Simulation (TOMACS) — the top journal in Modeling and Simulation, an editor of the Future Generation Computer Systems (FGCS) — a premier journal in High Performance Computing. He has chaired a number of international conferences. Most recent ones include: 2012 IEEE International Conference on Parallel and Distributed Systems (ICPADS 2012) and 2011 IEEE International Symposium on Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems (MASCOTS 2011). His recent research is concerned with using Agent-based Modeling and Simulation to understand the effect of individual behavior on system-level dynamics and to develop decision support systems for planning and tactical operations.
Rick Siow Mong Goh is the department director of the Computing Science Department at the A∗STAR Institute of High Performance Computing (IHPC). At IHPC, he leads a team of more than 70 scientists in performing world-leading scientific research, developing technology to commercialization, and engaging and collaborating with industry. The research focus areas include high performance computing (HPC), distributed computing, data analytics, interactive interaction technologies, and computational social cognition. His expertise is in discrete event simulation, parallel and distributed computing, and performance optimization and tuning of applications on large-scale computing platforms. He was in the program committee of a number of international conferences. The most recent one where he co-chaired is the 2012 IEEE International Conference on Parallel and Distributed Systems (ICPADS 2012). Dr. Goh received his Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the National University of Singapore.
