While working on my PhD and a bit later, I was with the Laboratoire d'Informatique Fondamentale de Lille, at the Université de Lille 1. There, I studied vector supercomputers, their architecture, and supercompilers (compilers for supercomputers). Below, there is the list of publications related to this phase of my life. I've stopped working on these things for a very long time... These are not available on this page.
