About Me

My name is Nick Lindsay and I am a computer architect.

I am a PhD student at Yale University, where I am advised by Professor Abhishek Bhattacharjee.

My research is in computer architecture and systems. It spans topics including performance debugging, microarchitectural modeling, and virtual memory for both CPUs and accelerators. I am particularly interested in techniques that make microarchitectures more intelligible for both research and pedagogical purposes.
