Hewlett-Packard

Rob worked at Hewlett Packard for more than 20 years, https://trimaran.org/car/rob_schreiber.

Sparse

Iain Duff is known for his work on algorithms and software for sparse matrix computation. In 1990, he visited Stanford and gave a talk in the numerical analysis seminar. I attended the talk. So did John Gilbert, who was then at Xerox Palo Alto Research Center, and Rob Schreiber, from Hewlett Packard Research. We all went to lunch at Stanford's Tresidder Union and there Gilbert, Schreiber and I decided it was about time for MATLAB to support sparse matrices.

In 1992 we introduced sparse matrices. One of our examples is west0479

SIAM

Rob has been a member of SIAM for 50 years, https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=464499592673781.

NAS Benchmarks

The NAS Parallel Benchmarks (NPB) are a set of programs designed to evaluate the performance of parallel supercomputers. The benchmarks were developed as part of the Numerical Aerodynamic Simulation (NAS) Program at the NASA Ames Research Center. The benchmarks are derived from computational fluid dynamics applications and consist of five kernels and three pseudo-applications in the original "pencil-and-paper" specification. Rob is one of the 14 authors of the first specification, NAS Benchmarks.

The NAS Benchmarks received the Supercomputing Test of Time award at SC15 in Austin. Rob is next to Horst Simon, who holds the award.

Cerebras

Cerebras Systems is a ten-year old Silicon Valley startup. https://www.cerebras.ai/company.

The fellow in the center is holding the Cerebras "chip", an entire silicon wafer. Rob is on the right, in the green shirt.
