Presenter

Wayne is a Computational Scientist at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. He specializes in developing mathematical algorithms and software to solve science problems more effectively on HPC systems. He received an R&D100 Award for the Falcon reservoir simulator project and was Gordon Bell finalist for the uDeviceX project and also for CoMet, the first reported application to achieve an ExaOp. His activities include application requirements gathering, application performance modeling and prediction, performance optimization, application readiness for future leadership systems and acceptance testing of leadership-class HPC systems. He earned his Ph.D. in Mathematics at the University of Texas at Austin.
