I’m a professor in Scientific Computing and High Performance Computing at Durham University where I work at the Department of Computer Science. I head the Scientific Computing research group and I serve as director of Durham University’s Institute for Data Science.
Via the top menu, you can navigate to sites about my research software and links to some projects I am involved with. You also find some posters and videos as well as supplemental information about some books I have published. Finally, there is a short CV and a brief description of my research philosophy.

- Really proud to announce that our group became the 17th member of VI-HPS: www.vi-hps.org This aligns nicely with our initiatives around HPC training, but also our research around tasking with Otter, as enabled through the #ExCALIBUR programme. https://www.vi-hps.org/
- Vespertec is our sponsor of the day for the Durham HPC Days. Please note that we have only one more day to register. After that, registration will be closed. Stay tuned for more updates: https://www.durham.ac.uk/research/institutes-and-centres/data-science/events-/durham---hpc-days/
- While colleagues from #Intel visit us for the HAI-End performance analysis workshop, our Battlemage GPUs drop in. We'll make them available to the compute community soon through our testbeds: https://durham.readthedocs.io/en/latest/hardwarelab/index.html
- Very happy to learn that our friends from #Intel had been invited to the Chancellor's Circle Annual Dinner 2025 due to their support of Durham's OneAPI Centre of Academic Excellence: https://www.durham.ac.uk/alumni/news-and-events/latest-news/2025/05/chancellors-circle-annual-dinner-2025/
- If you intend to come to Durham for the HPC Days, please do register. Registration closes 21 May: https://www.durham.ac.uk/research/institutes-and-centres/data-science/events-/durham---hpc-days/ And then, our sponsor of the day: #OCF has provided some of our systems at Durham, so we are happy to have them back as vendor participant.
