Professor Murray Cole is a faculty member at the School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh, holding the Personal Chair of Patterned Parallel Computing. He is affiliated with the Institute for Computing Systems Architecture and co-directs the Centre for Doctoral Training in Pervasive Parallelism. As a PGR Personal Tutor, he provides academic support for research students.
His research focuses on parallel programming models, particularly skeletons—abstractions for structuring parallel programs. Key areas include performance portability across architectures (GPUs, manycore, clusters), dynamic optimization, and domain-specific languages. Projects like Transmuter and CoSPARSE highlight his work in reconfigurable hardware and graph analytics.
He contributes to postgraduate teaching through the course Parallel Programming Languages and Systems. While no explicit scientific awards are listed, his leadership in major EPSRC-funded projects underscores his impact in compiler design and computer architecture.
