Summary
Ramon Monfort is a Senior Research Scientist at IBM T.J. Watson Research Center with nine years of experience specializing in power- and energy-aware computer architecture for Hybrid Cloud and high-performance systems. He holds a PhD from the Barcelona Supercomputing Center/UPC where he developed novel, DVFS-agnostic power modeling techniques validated across Intel, POWER7 and virtualized platforms. At IBM he leads work on power/performance modeling, systematic microbenchmark generation (lead developer of Microprobe), and energy accounting for p- and z-series systems, contributing both tooling and empirical characterization used in processor development. His expertise spans the entire stack—from applications and compilers to microarchitecture—enabling practical, deployable energy-efficient solutions. Notably, his micro-architecture aware micro-benchmark framework is actively used for testing IBM POWER and Z processors, reflecting a rare blend of deep research and production impact.
