I am a lecturer in the School of Computing and do research related to quantum computing. I do independent consulting related to quantum computing the other 50% of my time. For more information about my work, please see my personal webpage .
Please see my personal webpage for information on my research (including a CV with a full publication list, and all of my presentation slides): .
I teach the second part of CSC2032, algorithm design and analysis. I have worked to make this course my own including adding new material related to simulated annealing at the end of the course. While my background is in quantum computing my lecturing duties all currently relate to classical algorithms, this is because there was not enough teaching on the quantum module to go around for all of the staff in quantum computing, and I had the most experience of the three of us in classical algorithms given my focus on hybrid quantum-classical computing so I offered to teach non-quantum subjects.
I also have some publicly available learning resources which may be of interest on my personal webpage, some online lectures on quantum annealing: which were made public as part of a grant I worked on before coming to 缅北禁地. There is also a programming exercise for getting a feeling of how simulations of quantum optimisation work: . Also I have worked on a video game to teach about quantum computing, see: .
