Was great supervising Ludovic during his PhD, and I am pleased he has now joined @EPCCed as staff. His research brought the vertex centric model to a scale hitherto unobtainable, and set an unofficial world record for the largest vertex centric graph processed in shared memory ;)
EPCC Teaching Fellow Ludovic Capelli lets us in on his #PhD years when he investigated the vertex-centric programming model used in graph processing. edin.ac/3YCO2ze

It's really shocking that this hasn't been resolved yet, and it's vital for UK science that this be resolved and the UK rejoin Horizon. Just look at the numbers - it's a devastating loss to UK science. theguardian.com/education/20…
