Biography:
Lewis Mackenzie is a Senior Lecturer in Computing Science and a member of the Embedded Systems and Networks group. His teaching in recent years has been primarily in data communications, networks and computer systems. His research interests are in mobile ad hoc, vehicular and wireless sensor networks, advanced computer architectures and simulation. He is also interested in physics of computing, quantum computing and philosophy of science and has recently co-authored a book covering topics in these areas. Within the School he is convener of the IT Committee and works closely with the Systems Team on equipment and IT service provision for both staff and students. He is also an undergraduate Adviser of Studies.

Prior to joining the School, he worked for a time as a lecturer in the then Department of Natural Philosophy at the University of Glasgow where he led the development of a dedicated multicomputer for diagonalising nuclear shell model Hamiltonians. His interest in multicomputer design and advanced architectures evolved from this base. He holds a BSc in Mathematics and Natural Philosophy and a PhD in Physics.

Research Interests:
