CURRICULUM VITAE

Manuel Carcenac was born in 1964 in France. He obtained his Engineering Degree in Mechanics, Automatics and Robotics from the French Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Mécanique et des Microtechniques (ENSMM), Besançon, France. He had previously followed two years of preparatory classes, Math Sup and Math Spé, at Lycée Pierre-de-Fermat, Toulouse.

He then obtained his Mastère and his Ph.D. in Computer Science from the Ecole Nationale Supérieure de l'Aéronautique et de l'Espace (ENSAE, Sup'Aéro), Toulouse, France.

From 1994 to 1997, he worked as research engineer in a French software company on numerical computing applications.

From 1998 to 2010, he was an assistant professor in the Department of Computer Engineering of Eastern Mediterranean University.

From 2010 to 2015, Manuel Carcenac was an assistant professor in the Department of Computer Engineering of the European University of Lefke.

His research interests include the fields of numerical computing, functional programming, computer graphics, artificial neural networks, GPU-based parallel architectures and parallel computational linear algebra.
