Find me at the Mathematics Genealogy Project.

I am associated with the Linnaeus center of excellence UPMARC, Uppsala Programming for Multicore Architectures Research Center.

I am the current faculty advisor of UPPSALA SIAM Chapter.

Project proposals: "Flexible and efficient simulation of stochastic reaction-diffusion networks"

There are several openings for interesting and challenging projects within the software framework URDME. Suggestions include high-performance software development, new models in molecular systems biology, and improving simulation efficiency and flexibility. Precise suggestions for projects suitable to MSc/BSc-theses can be formulated upon request.
More details can be found here.

Project proposal: "Frontier science with X-ray lasers: development of new parallel computing tools to image biomolecules".

MSc-thesis project joint with Tomas Ekeberg, Janos Hajdu, and Carl Nettelblad. Tomas Ekeberg was interviewed in Swedish Radio P1 (in swedish).
The details of the project can be found here.

Project proposals: "Computations and modeling of single neurons".

MSc-thesis project joint with Pavol Bauer, and Richardson Leao.
More details can be found here.

Teaching

Spring 2012: Classic Articles in Numerical Analysis (7.5hp, graduate course).
Fall 2010: Finite element methods 1TD253 (5.0hp).

Research

I am currently building up my research around the analysis and implementation of numerical methods specifically targeting multicore computers -- on the one hand for multicore desktop computers, but also on the other hand for manycore cards such as GPUs/FPGAs. Within this line of research I am interested in modelling issues, error analysis, hybrid methods, and implementation aspects in several different types of applications and models. This currently includes PDEs/ODEs, stochastic versions thereof, and N-body formulations.

In case you are interested in doing a MSc-thesis in this area or have specific ideas of your own, please feel invited to contact me for further discussions.

Freeware

Please feel free to and use my software (Matlab/C/Mex) under a very liberal license. The software provided here includes a fairly wide range of subroutines useful in research, computations and for fun.

Please mail comments, suggestions, references, criticism. Please do not send support questions.

Animations

If a picture tells more than a thousand words then a GIF-animation should tell at least a million...

Flow around airfoils (simulations by Paul Deglaire):
Colliding galaxies! (will take a while to download)

Miscellaneous

I am involved in teaching Tango at Tangogruppen Cambalache.
