Clint Whaley
Biography
R. Clint Whaley completed his BS in Mathematics at Oklahoma Panhandle State University in 1991. He completed his MS degree in Computer Science at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville in 1994. His MS work primarily involved research on supporting efficient dense linear algebra on distributed memory parallel machines. He worked for several years as a researcher at Jack Dongarra's Innovative Computing Laboratory, where he founded the ATLAS (Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra Software) research project.
He completed his PhD in Computer Science at the Florida State University in 2004. His PhD research was on empirical tuning in general, and specifically on empirical and iterative compilation. His PhD research resulted in the development of a compilation framework, called iFKO (iterative Floating Point Kernel Optimizer).
He was an Assistant, and later Associate Professor at the University of Texas at San Antonio from 2005-2012, and is currently an Associate Professor at Louisiana State University, with a joint appointment in the Division of Computer Science and the Center for Computation and Technology.
