Academic Career and Research Areas

Prof. Bader (* 1971) works on hardware-aware algorithms in computational science and engineering and in high performance computing. In particular, he focuses on challenges imposed by latest supercomputing platforms, and the development of suitable efficient and scalable algorithms and software for simulation tasks in science and engineering. The corresponding research group is therefore located at the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre.

Prof. Bader studied computer science and earned his PhD (in 2001) at TUM. After that, he acted as coordinator of the Elite Master’s Program in “Computational Engineering” (as part of the Elite Network Bavaria) and of the “Munich Centre of Advanced Computing”. From 2009 to 2011, when he accepted the professorship at TUM, he worked as an assistant professor (Juniorprofessor) at the SimTech Cluster of Excellence at University of Stuttgart.
