Valeria Simoncini

Valeria Simoncini (born 1966)[1] is an Italian researcher in numerical analysis who works as a professor in the mathematics department at the University of Bologna.[2] Her research involves the computational solution of equations involving large matrices, and their applications in scientific computing.[3] She is the chair of the SIAM Activity Group on Linear Algebra.[4]

Education and career

Simoncini earned a degree from the University of Bologna in 1989, became a visiting scholar at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign from 1991 to 1993, and completed her PhD at the University of Padua in 1994. After working at CNR from 1995 to 2000, she returned to Bologna as an associate professor in 2000, and was promoted to full professor in 2010.[2]

Book

With Antonio Navarra, she is the author of the book A Guide to Empirical Orthogonal Functions for Climate Data Analysis (Springer, 2010).

Recognition

In 2014 she was elected as a fellow of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics "for contributions to numerical linear algebra".[5]

gollark: Hmm, 20%, actually.
gollark: I don't get it.
gollark: So if I understand the profiling right, 10% of runtime is spent in the `[]` operator?
gollark: Muahahaha, 3000 profiles or something obtained.
gollark: *is now waiting for this to very slowly finish running for profiling purposes*
