Luke Wilson joined TACC in October 2005 as an HPC Specialist, and is responsible for assisting the HPC group with benchmarking activities and user support. Before joining TACC, Luke was a graduate student at the University of Texas at Arlington. There he focused on using artificial immune systems to generate near-optimal object replica placement schemes in a dynamic, distributed environment. Prior to attending UT Arlington, Luke worked at Texas A&M University, Corpus Christi developing genetic algorithms for optimized motion planning.

Research Interests:
