Topics of Wilfried Gansterer (wilfried.gansterer (at) univie.ac.at) focus on various aspects of numerical algorithms. For these topics, interest in numerical algorithms and (large-scale) matrix computations as well as in high performance computing and parallel computing is usually required.
Please Note: You find examples of possible topics below, but you can also contact me and suggest your own project idea!
