Q&A with Clive England
About the Speaker:
Clive England worked at Cray Research during the 1990s, a time when supercomputers
were evolving from superfast processors to super-capacity systems. As a software service
engineer at a hardware company, he was responsible for installing, tuning, and
troubleshooting these multi-million pound systems. Currently, he is researching the
history of Cray-branded supercomputers.
