Profile
During my work I’m developing algorithms, numerical methods and applications for computer simulation especially related to multiscale heat transfer modeling. My main field of work is the high-performance computing including parallelization on multi-core processors, multiprocessor systems, and graphics units.
I am also passionate about DIY and active leisure.

Services
Numerical modeling
Numerical simulation often is the only feasible approach. I work with FDM, BEM, FEM as also with the meshless methods.
HPC
I'm using the high-performance computing (mainly CUDA) to obtain the results efficiently, reliably and quickly.
Embedded software
Implementation of real time processing and signal analysis in embedded systems for reactions to the dynamic environment changes.
IoT
Development and application of algorithms for the distributed resources.
