- Showcase supercomputing results of an inter-disciplinary project with Mathematics, on developing an infrastructure for parallel symbolic computation (EP/G05553X/1; 366k for HWU). The evaluation of the main symbolic application in this paper represent the first ever parallelisation of an algebraic computation at modern HPC scale involving thousands of processors on a state-of-the-art supercomputer. This infrastructure impacts both the mathematical domain, especially group theory, and the computer science domain, especially languages and systems for high-performance computing.

Contribution: Contributed to design and implementation of the underlying SymGrid-Par infrastructure, and its evaluation on several architectures.
