Congratulations Lukas Breitwieser for successfully defending your PhD

 On Monday, November 11, 2024, Lukas successfully defended his thesis work, “Design and Analysis of an Extreme-Scale, High-Performance, and Modular Agent-Based Simulation Platform” 👏




The core contributions of Lukas’s thesis work are:

BioDynaMo significantly reduces the simulation runtime, enabling larger and more complex simulations, faster iterative development, and more extensive parameter exploration. Specifically, BioDynaMo can:

  • simulate 500 billion agents (a 84x improvement over the state-of-the-art),
  • scale to 84’096 CPU cores,
  • significantly reduce the simulation time (e.g., BioDynaMo simulates an iteration of 800 million agents in 0.6 s instead of 5 s), and
  • significantly increases the visualization performance by 39x.
