Bourianoff George Bourianoff is a senior program manager in the Strategic Research Group at Intel Corporation, and is responsible for managing Intel's external semiconductor research program in universities and other research organizations. He is directly responsible for the external research programs in optoelectronics and advanced devices. He has research interests in spin devices, energy of computation and ferromagnetic semiconductors. Dr. Bourianoff serves as co-chair of Intel's Semiconductor Technology Committee (STC), chairs the Emerging Logic technology working group associated with the ITRS, chairs the International Planning Working Group on Nanoelectronics, serves on the executive committee of with the Western Institute of Nanoelectronics the Focused Center Research Program and the Global Research Corporation.
Group Leader of accelerator simulation and correction group -1989-1994 I had full line management responsibility for a group of 12 physicists and engineers charged with developing the simulation codes and platforms required for design and operation of the entire accelerator complex of the SSC. He was responsible for design, development and verification of all software modules required by the accelerator complex. This included simulating subtle beam dynamics in highly non-linear magnetic fields that resulted in beam loss over periods of 107 turns. I drove the acquisition and managed the operation of the parallel computing facility at the SSC. He was a key participant in managing the laboratory wide computing environment. During the termination phase of the SSC, he led the effort to find alternative uses for laboratory computing equipment. Skills demonstrated include technical proficiency in computational physics, parallel computing, accelerator physics, and direct line management.
Dr. Bourianoff was responsible for research in alternate fusion concepts, free electron lasers, high power microwave devices and classical magento hydrodynamics. This included writing and running large computer codes, coupled to analyzing and interpreting experimental results. He conducted theoretical studies of non-linear electromagnetic wave propagation through adaptive lens systems and atmospheric turbulence. It also included electromagnetic material interaction studies. His primary duty was to conduct contract research for government agencies in the areas mentioned above. Secondary responsibilities included proposal writing, contract administration and supervision of younger staff members. Austin Research Associates Research Physicist--1984-1987 He was responsible for developing complex computer codes relating to numerical hydrodynamics, numerical ship hydrodynamics, and free electron laser operation. It included significant advances in the underlying analytical framework for modeling FEL operation under the direction of Professors Marshal Rosenbluth and William E. Drummond. It also included fundamental research of numerical methods for addressing incompressible fluid flow with non-linear free surface boundary conditions as well as the associated physical systems.
Dr. Bourianoff was a full time consultant to Exxon contracted to develop nonlinear, free surface hydrodynamics code to analyze the dynamics of moored ships and mooring systems.
