Ivan Fernandez is a PhD candidate and seasoned computer scientist with 9 years of experience designing ultra-low-latency and low-jitter systems for trading platforms, air traffic management, and high-performance scientific computing. He specializes in kernel-bypass networking, RDMA/Infiniband, and reliable datagram protocols, having implemented production middleware using Solarflare ef_vi, Onload tuning, and secure integration with Kerberos/LDAP. His background spans embedded systems, numerical simulation on supercomputers, and performance-driven architecture optimization across C/C++, Fortran, MPI/OpenMP, and ADA. Based in Spain and currently conducting postdoctoral research at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center, he blends deep research rigor with hands-on production engineering. A polyglot in human languages—fluent English, basic German, and studying Chinese to HSK4—he brings uncommon cross-disciplinary curiosity to system-level problems.

NATSA is the first near-data-processing accelerator for time series analysis based on the Matrix Profile (SCRIMP) algorithm. NATSA exploits modern 3D-stacked High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) to enable efficient and fast matrix profile computation near memory. Described in ICCD 2020 by Fernandez et al. https://people.inf.ethz.ch/omutlu/pub/NATSA_time-series-analysis-near-data_iccd20.pdf
