My name is Reid Atcheson. I have a PhD in Computational and Applied Mathematics (CAAM) from Rice University. I am a senior technical consultant for Numerical Algorithms Group (NAG). I periodically write here about my interests. I have interest in the following:- Scientific computation and numerical analysis
- High performance computing
- Correctness of numerical algorithms
- Functional programming
