About Simon Hollis
Brief Bio
Simon Hollis is a Lecturer in Computer Science at the University of Bristol, with particular interests in microelectronics, VLSI design, and security architectures (see my Research Interests page).Education
Under the supervision of Dr Simon Moore, he undertook a PhD entitled Pulse-based, On-chip Interconnect at the University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory. He also holds an MA (Hons) in Computer Science from the same institution.Research
I am a member of the Microelectronics Research Grouphere in the Department of Computer Science, University of Bristol.
I also lead the Many-core Research Project, here in the Department of Computer Science.
Our major current project is the Swallow Many-core Project.
I have a separate page which describes in detail my current research interests.
UK Async Forum
In 2009, I hosted the UK Async Forum, here at Bristol. The website for this UK-based academic workshop, is here.Publications
See my publications page.Teaching
I teach the following course units for the Computer Science Batchelor's and Master's courses, as well as some postgraduate taught students:COMS12303: Origins of Computer Science (Unit Director and Lecturer)
COMS12600: Introduction to Computer Architecture (Unit Director and Lecturer)
COMS35102: System Integration (Unit Director and Lecturer)
Admissions
I am one of the departments Undergraduate Admissions Tutors, and would be happy to answer any questions from interested applicants. However, in the first instance, please contact our Undergraduate Admissions Co-ordinator with any queries. Contact details and course information are available at our admissions website.Local (BS8) Weather
I run an experimental weather station, housed here at the Department of Computer Science. We are currently trialing some software to display the local weather. Recent measurements (updated every minute) and a forecast for the department can be found here. The system is still very much experimental, so no guarantee of accuracy or even the functioning of the web-server is given (and the wind direction measurement is off by a constant factor of approximately 180 degrees).Contact
