Dmitry Arkhipkin @ Brookhaven National Lab

Personality: ex-physicist, who has switched to high-performance computing and database management.. and loved it!

Research interests:

• design and implementation of the distributed computing systems based on the reliable message queuing infrastructure, reactive and lambda architectures
• relational, object and NoSQL databases and their applications in support of peta- to exascale science, distributed computing
• distributed detector and expertiment control systems (DCS), real-time browser-based user interfaces (UI)
• web applications (frontend) development using HTML5 + CSS3 technology stack
• data warehousing and accounting, security infrastructure (PKI)
• experimental study of the signatures of quark-gluon plasma formation and strongly interacting matter behavior at high energy density

Collaborations/projects: STAR Collaboration @ RHIC (Software Design, Development and Database Support) and NICA experiment @ Dubna (Beam-Beam Counter detector). Some projects could be accessed by using links below, others accessible from "My Projects @ STAR" menu.
