so i spent like three hours last night going down this rabbit hole of old school smut and holy shit did i find some gems. first up i gotta talk about this one spot called vintagepornhome.com. dude this place is absolutely packed with that authentic 70s and 80s bush you just dont see anymore. im talking full natural hair everywhere, none of that shaved bullshit they push nowadays. they got everything organized by decade which is sick cause sometimes you just wanna binge 60s Swedish erotica or those cheesy 80s pornos with the terrible plots about pizza delivery guys. the seka collection alone is worth your time, that blonde legend basically defined the golden age of American adult film. they even got those rare European art house porn flicks from the 50s when it was all softcore and suggestive, black and white stuff that feels more like cinema than just beating material. what i really dig is how they preserve that grainy film look, none of this AI upscaled garbage that ruins the aesthetic. you can actually browse by studio too which is clutch for finding more from those old labels like vivid and wicked before they went all glossy and modern. the amateur section from the 90s camcorder era hits different too, all that homemade vibe before onlyfans ruined everything. took me right back to finding my uncles old vhs tapes as a kid. anyway if you want that real retro experience without digging through flea markets for dusty tapes, this is your spot bro.

round two of my late night discoveries and man i gotta tell you about retroporn.tube. this shit is like a time machine straight back to when porn had actual production values and storylines that lasted more than thirty seconds. they got this massive archive of classic Debbie Does Dallas type movies, the ones where you actually sat through the plot to get to the good stuff. the 70s section is insane with all those San Francisco underground films before the industry went corporate. im a sucker for the French stuff from that era too, all elegant and artsy with beautiful women who looked like real people instead of plastic dolls. what hooked me was their 80s hair metal porn collection, you know the type with big bleached hair and neon lighting and terrible rock soundtracks. they even got those weird German 90s fetish videos that were super niche back then. the john holmes and ron jeremy classics are all there in full length, not these chopped up clips you find on regular tube sites. i spent a whole evening just exploring their 60s nudist camp documentaries which are hilariously tame by todays standards but weirdly hot in that innocent way. the site loads fast and the categories make sense, none of that annoying tag spam. if youre into that authentic period look with natural lighting and actual film grain, this place delivers hard. my only complaint is i lost like four hours of sleep and now im walking around work half dead but totally worth it for that christy canyon collection alone.

As of my incorporation into the Department of Computer Architecture and Operating Systems of the UAB as a postgraduate student, it is possible to divide my scientific-technical career into the following stages:

Simulation of Parallel Applications (1992-99): Focused on the design and development of simulators of parallel applications. This research main objective was the definition of abstractions for parallel programs, based on characterizing tasks and their dependences. Two main abstractions were developed, at first a simpler one, which was easier to parametrize, and, next, a more complex an accurate one. Using these characterizations, several simulation tools were programmed and used in the context of national and European projects. As part of my Master’s thesis, I was involved in the design and development of some of these simulation applications.

National projects: 4, European: 2

International conferences: 3, National: 1, Journal papers: 3

Security in Distributed Systems (2007-12): Focused on the design and development of the FPVA (First Principles Vulnerability Assessment) methodology for the evaluation of vulnerabilities in Grid applications. This methodology clearly defined a set of steps for the assessment of Grid applications vulnerabilities, most of these steps could be automatized or at least supported by specific tools. Jointly with other professors of our group and from the University of Wisconsin, I was involved in the original definition and application of this methodology.

Master Thesis: 1, Ph.D. Thesis: 1

International conferences: 2, National: 1, Journal papers: 2

Parallel Application Modeling (1999-present): This is my main line of research, aimed at defining high-level performance models for parallel applications. Initially, models were defined for MPI applications with a master-worker and pipeline structure, but later this line has been expanded with the definition of models for memory-intensive OpenMP applications, composed (mix of several structures) applications, applications based on mathematical libraries, distributed data-intensive applications and, finally, applications based on the simulation of agents (ABS) with SPMD structure.

As a result of the work on modeling the performance of ABS parallel systems, we have opened a new line for the definition and implementation of a benchmark for assessing the performance of the parallel simulators generated by well-known platforms, such as FLAME, Repast-HPC or D-Mason. In addition, the knowledge we have gained on this topic has opened new ways of collaboration for optimizing real parallel ABS in the health sciences area (tumor growth and infection spread).

Parallel Applications Tuning Tools (2010-present): Focused on the design and development of tools for automatic tuning and, in some cases, also dynamic tuning of parallel applications. These tools allow the integration of performance models in the form of external components provided by the analyst. For this reason, this research line is tightly coupled with the Parallel Application Modeling one. The two main tools developed totally or partially by our group are Monitoring Analysis and Tuning Environment-MATE (and its highly scalable evolution ELASTIC) and Periscope Tuning Framework-PTF.
