Paternoster Beatrice

Biography

Beatrice Paternoster was born in Naples, Italy, in 1958, where he graduated in Mathematics with praise in 1980 at the University of Naples. He has been a fellow at the National Institute of Higher Mathematics "F.Severi" in Rome and then an analyst-programmer at the SOGEI software house in Rome. In 1985 he began working as a Data Processing Officer at the University of Salerno. In 1986 he became a university researcher in the scientific-disciplinary field Mat08 / Numerical Analysis; in 2001 he became Professor Associate, in 2007 Professor Extraordinary and since 2009 is Ordinary Professor of Numerical Analysis (MAT / 08). His teaching activity takes place within the courses of Numerical Calculation, Numerical Analysis, Approximation Methods, Numerical Methods for Graphics at the Degree Courses of Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics and Chemistry. In his research activity he deals with the construction of new and efficient numerical methods for the resolution of Functional Equations, with particular interest in Differential and Integral Equations. He was also interested in parallel computing, with a focus on the development of mathematical software for evolutionary problems. He has recently begun to work on accelerating numerical methods on Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). He is a referee of numerous articles published in international journals, Editor of the journal "Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society" and Specialist Editor (Mathematics and Numerical Methods) of the journal Computer Physics Communications. Tutor of PhD students in Mathematics at University of Salerno. He is responsible for the Didactic Laboratories of the Mathematics Degree Course. He was responsible for the self-assessment process of the Mathematics Degree Course and Chair of the Didactic Mathematics Area from December 2008 to March 2013.
