The Intelligent Systems Software Lab (ISSL) is part of the Distributed Systems and Services Group within the School of Computer Science at The University of Leeds.
Our recent efforts cut across multiple systems stacks, ranging from runtime optimisation, compilation, high-level parallel programming models, kernel library implementations, and distributed communication systems. We often use machine learning as a design methodology to automate system design.
