Mantas Mikaitis

I am a Lecturer in the School of Computer Science at the University of Leeds. Before this I was a Research Associate with the Numerical Linear Algebra Group at the University of Manchester, working with Professor Nicholas J. Higham. I received a B.Sc. (Hons.) degree in Computer Science in 2016 and a PhD degree in Computer Science in 2020 (supervised by Dr David Lester and Professor Steve Furber), both from the University of Manchester.

My research interests include: computer arithmetic, numerical linear algebra, high-performance computing, mathematical software, performance optimization and benchmarking.

Main programming and software skills: C, MATLAB, Python, CUDA, Verilog, ARM assembly, Git, LaTeX, Bash.
