Werner G. Krebs (born ca. 1977) is an American[6] data scientist. He is currently CEO of data science and artificial intelligence startup Acculation, Inc.[7] and has previously held positions at what are now Virtu Financial, Bank of America, and the San Diego Supercomputer Center.[1][8][9]

He was initially hired out of high school by the Nobel Laureate James Heckman.[1][10][11] A graduate of the University of Chicago and University of Chicago Laboratory Schools, he is a Salzburg Global Fellow, Founder Institute Graduate, and IBM Global Entrepreneur.[1][7][12] He resides in Los Angeles.[8][13]

Krebs and his work have been discussed in news articles in journals,[14][15] newspapers,[16][17] books,[18][19] encyclopedias,[20] official government publications,[1][21][22] and internationally in multiple languages[23] over a period spanning more than one decade.[1][14][22]

Amongst other things, he is noted for the Database of Molecular Motions which was developed with Mark Gerstein while a PhD Candidate at Yale University.[14][15][20] He has also been noted[24] as the original author of GNU Queue,[23][25] a 2000s-era load balancing and parallel processing system with a simplified in-line interface.[23][26] Although GNU Queue was decommissioned in 2015 in favor of GNU Parallel,[27] it was originally described in 1998 as having some functionality similar to LSF, which at the time was closed source commercial software.[28] A simplified version of LSF was later open sourced circa 2007, eventually named OpenLava and under a GPL license compatible with GNU Queue. Thus, both GNU Parallel and OpenLava may be considered related GPL’d projects, although the latter is not formally a GNU project.[29] He was an academic, on the faculty at UCSD.[5][1][11]
