- Aug2023 - Oct2023Imperial College LondonUndergraduate Researcher
I was responsible for a performance monitoring project for the Nektar++ framework (supervised by Dr. Chris Cantwell) developing tools to identify performance regression when new code was added, including retroactive analysis.
I extensively modified the test suite (in C++) to include performance tests, and implemented these into the CI/CD pipeline. My changes are now live and being used regularly.
As part of the project, I discovered a sudden 15% performance regression in one historical version which has now been fixed.
