Senior🎓
Top SchoolRoman Iakymchuk is an Associate Professor and docent in scientific computing with 12 years of experience advancing energy-efficient, robust, and reproducible numerical solvers for high-performance computing. Based in Uppsala and jointly appointed at Umeå, he co-leads the EuroHPC Center of Excellence for Exascale CFD and heads its Exascale Algorithms work package, bridging algorithm design with practical exascale deployment. His research spans mixed-precision arithmetic, numerical reproducibility (author of the ExBLAS library), and asynchronous one-sided programming models that target both accuracy and sustainability. Roman’s track record includes leadership on multiple EU projects and a prestigious Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellowship at Sorbonne, reflecting a rare blend of deep numerical-analysis theory and hands-on HPC systems work. He also brings industrial and tooling experience from Fraunhofer and performance-analysis contributions such as the LiTL trace library lineage, demonstrating an aptitude for turning performance insight into scalable software.
