Mladen Ivkovic’s Homepage

Hi there! Welcome to my homepage!

(Not sure how to pronounce my name?)

Currently I’m a postdoctoral research associate at Durham University in the Scientific Computing Group of the Department of Computer Science, working on task-based SPH formalisms and the performance prediction and optimisation thereof with the Peano framework.

My background is in physics and astrophysics, with heavy emphasis on computational astrophysics and software development for High Performance Computing simulations and on-the-fly analysis. So far, my fields of research span halo finding, mergertree building, computational fluid dynamics (using Finite Volume methods, Finite Volume Particle Methods, and Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics), and radiative transfer. I have worked on and with astrophysical codes like SWIFT and RAMSES.
