I am investigating novel features of the experimental language X10, developed by IBM as part of their submission to the DARPA HPCS Program.
My PhD supervisor is Alistair Rendell.
I am interested in programming distributed data structures to support scalable scientific applications.
To motivate and evaluate this work I am developing ANUChem, a suite of computational chemistry applications in X10.
