Although a PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Olaf envisioned computers would soon revolutionize structural analysis. He led a hardware-software-systems-application R&D team to build the NASA's first parallel computer, the Finite-Element Machine (FEM). NASA’s FEM led the way & industry soon introduced a plethora of parallel computers which now dominate supercomputing. Olaf’s General-Purpose Parallel Solver evolved with considerable advances from FEM parallel processors to Cray Supercomputers to speed Space Shuttle SRB FEM analysis of a 54,000 DoF (degrees-of-freedom) model from hours to seconds, a performance exceeding 1 petaflop for the 1st time resulting in Cray awarding Olaf & his team with the GIGAFLOP Award at the Annual Supercomputimg Conference in 1989.______________________Watch this and other Leading Edge Discovery Podcast with Astronaut Charlie Camarda Ph.D on ITSPmagazine's YouTube ChannelLeading Edge Discovery Podcast with Astronaut Charlie Camarda Ph.D playlist📺 https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnYu0psdcllQZ9kSG7X7grrP_PsH3q3T3ITSPMagazine YouTube Channel📺 https://www.youtube.com/@itspmagazineBe sure to share and subscribe!______________________ResourcesLife after Langley: Supercomputing: https://olaftn.com/images/LAAOlaf95RR6-8-21.mp4NASA Retirement: Lessons Learned: https://olaftn.com/NASA/Learned.html______________________For more podcast stories from the Leading Edge Podcast with Charlie Camarda, visit: https://itspmagazine.com/leading-edge-discovery-podcastWatch the webcast version on-demand on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnYu0psdcllQZ9kSG7X7grrP_PsH3q3T3 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Joined by Igor Volovich, Vice President of Compliance Strategy at Cumulus, the duo discusses a complex intersection between societal norms, technology, and the growing importance of trust in this digital age. An intriguing and expansive conversation unfolds, probing the deep undercurrents of our interconnected society and challenging us all to think critically about the shape of things to come.In the rapidly-evolving realm of cybersecurity, there's an urgent need to recalibrate our perspective. In this revealing discussion, Marco and Igor lift the veil on an industry often misunderstood and even overlooked by those outside its borders. They tackle difficult questions, addressing why people resist engaging with cybersecurity and exploring the role society as a whole plays in this digital dance.The duo also dives into a thought-provoking analysis of the role of compliance in cybersecurity. Is compliance truly the culprit behind our cybersecurity woes, or is it simply being misused? They dissect the complexities of this vital mechanism, underscoring the need for a shift in approach. According to Igor, the fault lies not in compliance itself, but in its application: the industry must move beyond capturing past state and strive towards real-time risk management.The discussion becomes even more engaging when the conversation pivots towards whistleblowers. The role of whistleblowers in society, especially within cybersecurity, is a subject that provokes a gamut of reactions. And yet, as Marco and Igor discuss, these individuals could be considered the ultimate "canaries in the coal mine," heralding issues and risks that might otherwise go unnoticed. But is society ready to embrace this often-maligned group and give them the recognition they deserve?As the conversation unfolds, Igor and Marco challenge listeners to reassess their understanding of cybersecurity, urging them to consider not just the technology but the human element of this intricate equation. They explore how the convergence of compliance, risk security, and operationalizing compliance can potentially transform the industry.Intrigued? This episode of Redefining Society is one you won't want to miss. Join Marco and Igor for an enlightening exploration of a topic that touches us all.
