Christie Louis Alappat wins the SC18 ACM Student Research Competition Award

Our PhD student Christie Louis Alappat just took first place in the ACM Student Research Competition at SC18. His work revolved around the “Recursive Algebraic Coloring Engine,” which is a new method and library for hardware-efficient graph coloring. This means that he will advance to the grand finale next year. Congratulations!
Christie’s project is part of the activities in ESSEX-II, a project funded by the German Science Foundation (DFG) within the priority programme SPPEXA.
