About the Reviewers
Anders Damsgaard is a researcher at Aarhus University in Denmark, where he develops applications that simulate granular and glacier mechanics. He believes that glaciers are a key component in the climate system of the past, present, and future, and a deep understanding of their behavior is crucial in order to develop credible and reliable numerical climate models for the warm future of Earth.
In order to overcome the large computational requirements of the scientific simulations, he has turned to massively parallel modern graphics-processing units in large-scale cluster environments and has developed his own tools using primarily CUDA C and the scientific Python stack (Numpy, Scipy, and Matplotlib). The design and daily usage ...
