Welcome to Fastcode

We are Bruce Hoppe and Rod Tohid, the co-editors of Fastcode, and we want to make it easy for you to do software performance engineering — to write fast code.

Bruce Hoppe

Bruce reports on what’s happening in software performance engineering. Are you working in the field? If so, Bruce wants to interview you! As director of outreach for the NSF-funded Fastcode open-source ecosystem, Bruce is especially interested in connecting the dots — to help experts make their work more accessible and to help newcomers get oriented.

Rod Tohid

Rod is an open‑source advocate leading STE||AR Group’s efforts to grow the HPX ecosystem. He covers open‑source technologies and techniques for writing high‑performance code, with a focus on the intertwined worlds of hardware architectures, compilers, and runtime systems.
