I am slightly late to posting this owing to a heat dome, which is wreaking havoc all over Europe right now. Luckily, the weather was lovely for the duration of the conference, save for a few showers. As the name implies, the two biggest UK systems programming conferences (C++ on Sea and ACCU) have merged.https://mattbolitho.github.io/posts/calling-fortran-subroutines-from-rust/Mon, 13 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000https://mattbolitho.github.io/posts/calling-fortran-subroutines-from-rust/I’ve been working on some Rust bindings to the COIN HSL Archive - a Fortran package containing solvers for linear equations and finding matrix scaling factors. HSL make some of the best algorithms in this domain, and are they commonly used in large scale nonlinear optimization packages such as Ipopt. The algorithms in the free archive package have largely been superseded by more modern alternatives, but these cost money to acquire.https://mattbolitho.github.io/posts/scientific-computing-in-rust-2025/Sat, 21 Jun 2025 20:00:00 +0000https://mattbolitho.github.io/posts/scientific-computing-in-rust-2025/A few weeks ago, I listened to talks from the Scientific Computing in Rust 2025 workshop. Unfortunately, this post is a little late due to a fairly busy month. I was interested to attend the workshop to gain some insight into the current state of Rust in the science and HPC world. Whilst I am not really something of a scientist myself I am very interested in simulation software which is a domain that I think that Rust is a great fit for.
