About Eric van Hensbergen

Eric is currently a Fellow and part of the leadership team of the Architecture & Technology Group at Arm looking after forward looking research. The group\'s activities span Arm\'s market segments and include developments in security, privacy, high performance computing, edge, efficiency, system scaling, agentic and embodied AI. In his earlier career at Arm he led bootstrapping Arm into high performance computing starting with the European Montblanc project and the DoE PathForward program through to collaborating with Fujitsu and RIKEN to realize Fugaku as the first Arm system to be #1 on the Top500.Previously, he was a research staff member in the Future Systems Department at IBM\'s Austin Research Lab. Over nearly twelve years at IBM, he has worked on low-power dense server and network processor appliance blades, DRAM power management, full system simulation, high performance computing, hypervisors, and the Linux operating system. Before coming to IBM, he worked for four years at Lucent Technologies Bell Laboratories on the Plan 9 and Inferno operating systems.Specialties: Operating SystemsDistributed SystemsComputer ArchitectureHigh Performance Computing
