Dmitry Karpeev
PhD, Old Dominion University, 2002

 


Dmitry Karpeev received a doctoral degree in Computer Science from Old Dominion University in December 2002 and immediately assumed a research staff position at the Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory, Argonne, IL, where he had been performing internships as a student prior to graduating. Earlier in his ODU career, Karpeev had been a fellow in the Graduate Assistantships in Areas of National Need (GAANN) program of the High Performance Computing and Communications (HPCC) group of the CS Department.

Karpeev, co-advised at Old Dominion University by Professors David Keyes (Computer Science and Math & Stat) and Connie Schober (Math & Stat), wrote his thesis about innovative numerical integration schemes for a class of dynamical systems relevant to such physical applications as communication in optical fibers and storage of data in micromagnetic materials. Karpeev had been a mathematics major and computer science minor at ODU as an undergraduate. At Argonne, he is now involved in computational biology under the DOE's "Genomes to Life" initiative.
