Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndré Brodtkorb is Head of the Department of Computer Science and Professor of Scientific Computing at OsloMet with 13 years of professional experience in applied mathematics, GPU-accelerated computing, and scientific visualization. He has led research groups and operational modelling efforts—translating academic advances in parallel and heterogeneous architectures into practical tools for emergency dispersion modelling and high-performance simulations. His career spans academia and research institutes (SINTEF, Norwegian Meteorological Institute) where he combined teaching of algorithms, graphics and calculus with hands-on development of GPU-based flood and atmospheric models. A strong advocate for reproducible research and high-quality education, he brings both leadership and deep technical expertise in turning numerical methods into reliable production code. Less obvious: his background includes focused work on scientifically correct visualizations and operationalizing models for real-time decision support.
