| Bio | Gunnar Martinsson is an assistant professor of applied mathematics at the
University of Colorado at Boulder. He graduated from Chalmers University
of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden, in 1998, and earned his PhD in 2002
from the Computational and Applied Mathematics program at the University
of Texas at Austin. His research interests include numerical linear
algebra, fast solvers for linear PDEs, and applied harmonic analysis. A
particular focus of his research is the development of algorithms
specifically designed for very large scale problems. Such problems
require algorithms whose complexity scales linearly with problem size,
that can efficiently exploit parallel processors in a variety of
configurations, that can run with the data stored out-of-core or
streamed, and that maintain optimal accuracy even for very large
problems. |
