Herb Keller
CRPC Site Director at Caltech and Professor,
Applied Mathematics, Caltech
Herb Keller is an internationally recognized numerical analyst who has
made important contributions to large-scale scientific computing and
computational fluid dynamics. He conducts research in scientific
computing, bifurcation theory, path following, and homotopy
methods. Keller is currently a professor of applied mathematics at
Caltech and has been at Caltech since 1967, after leaving the Courant
Institute where he had been the Associate Director of the AEC
Computing and Applied Mathematics Center.
As CRPC site director at Caltech and a member of the CRPC's Parallel
Algorithms for Physical Simulation group, Keller works with and
advises a group of eight research scientists and CRPC Prize Fellows in
devising numerical methods and concurrent solution algorithms for a
variety of problems in fluid dynamics, reaction diffusion,
computational relativity, and biology. He maintains close contact with
other groups within the CRPC, particularly the template development
group headed by Mani Chandy and Dan Meiron (see this issue's "Research
Focus" article). His efforts are also closely tied to the work of the
Linear Algebra Project involving Jack Dongarra and Dan Sorensen.
Among his publications, Herb Keller has written several texts,
research monographs, and more than 140 research papers. To add to his
credits, he has directed the dissertations of 25 Ph.D. students and is
an associate editor for the Japan Journal of Applied Mathematics,
Numerische Mathematik, and the Journal of the Ramanujan Mathematical
Society.
Keller's honors and appointments include alternate delegate for the
7th Assembly of the International Mathematics Union. He has been a
member of PAMRAN (Panel on Applied Mathematics Research Alternatives
for the Navy), the Science Policy Committee for the Society for
Industrial & Applied Mathematics, the University of Chicago Review
Committee for the Mathematics and Computer Science Division at Argonne
National Laboratory, and the Universities Space Research
Association. He has also served on the Science Council for Applied
Mathematics and Computer Science at the Institute for Computer
Applications in Science and Engineering and the Research Institute for
Advanced Computer Science at the NASA Ames Research Center. Keller is
a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Science, the American
Association for the Advancement of Science, and the Guggenheim
Foundation. He recently received the von Karman Prize from
SIAM. Keller will be honored in June for his lifelong professional
achievements at a reception at Caltech.
