Mark Fahey, Group Leader, Scientific Computing Group Dr. Fahey is the Group Leader for the Scientific Computing Group at NICS. Dr. Fahey previously worked as a member of the Scientific Computing Group within the National Center for Computational Sciences (NCCS) at ORNL where he acted as a liaison for several fusion researchers funded by the DOE; and as such, has ported and/or optimized several of the DOE Fusion codes (AORSA, GYRO, NIMROD, and M3D) on NCCS computers, which include a Cray XT[3,4,5], Cray X1E, SGI Altix, and an IBM Power4 and Power3. Dr. Fahey was a Research Scientist at the Engineering Research and Development Center in Vicksburg, MS from 1998 to 2001. There he was part of the Computational Migration Group (CMG) and later became the Director of the CMG. Dr. Fahey received his B.A. from St. Norbert College in 1992 and his Ph.D. from the University of Kentucky in 1999 where he received the Trustee’s Distinguished Scholarship (4years) and the University of Kentucky Center for Computational Sciences fellowships (3years), respectively. His research in scientific computing and numerical linear algebra covered topics such as sparse and dense matrix computations, eigenvalue problems, iterative solvers, probability theory, bilinear forms, and numerical integration techniques with demonstrated applicability to problems in chemistry and physics. He also contributed to the 3.0 release of LAPACK and also contributed a complex nonsymmetric eigenvalue routine to ScaLAPACK. |
