Ian Lumsden is a first year PhD candidate studying Computer Science at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. He is a Research Assistant in the Global Computing Lab advised by Dr. Michela Taufer. From May 2017 to December 2018, he participated in the Higher Education Research Experiences at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) working under Drs. Garrett Granroth and Jiao Lin. At ORNL, he developed software tools that facilitate the analysis and visualization of data produced by neutron scattering experiments. Additionally, he contributed to the MCViNE and DANSE projects, developing visualization tools for the MCViNE neutron experiment simulation program and providing preliminary work on developing GPU acceleration for MCViNE. His current work involves developing a general-purpose in-situ data analytics framework using UCX and adding functionality to Lawrence Livermore National Lab’s Hatchet tool to allow for expanded analysis of HPC profiling data.
