Bruno Carpentieri obtained a Laurea degree in Applied Mathematics in 1997 from Bari University, Italy. He furthered his Ph.D. studies in Computer Science at the Institut National Polytechnique de Toulouse (INPT), France. He served as an assistant professor at the Bernoulli Institute for Mathematics, Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence, University of Groningen, Netherlands, and as a reader in applied mathemat-

ics at Nottingham Trent University, UK. Since May 2017, he has been an Assistant Professor of Applied Mathematics at the Faculty of Computer Science, Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, Italy. His research interests include applied mathematics, numerical linear algebra, and high-performance computing. Dr. Carpentieri has been a member of several scientific advisory boards in computational mathematics. He is an editorial board member of the *Journal of Applied Mathematics*, an editorial committee member of *Mathematical Reviews*, and a reviewer of thirty scientific journals in numerical analysis. He has co-authored around fifty publications in peer-reviewed scientific journals.

Aamir Shahzad has more than seventeen years of experience in university research and teaching at home and abroad. He studied the thermophysical properties of materials and plasmas at graduate and postgraduate levels. He received his post-doctorate and doctoral degrees from Xi'an Jiaotong University (XJTU), China, in 2015 and 2012, respectively. He has proposed novel methods to explore outcomes of complex materi-

als, highlighting his aptitude in computational physics and molecular modeling and simulations. Moreover, Dr. Shahzad is interested in computational physics, complex fluids/plasmas, plasma oncology, and bio- and energy materials. Currently, Dr. Shahzad is an associate professor in the Department of Physics, at GC University Faisalabad (GCUF). He is a member of the XJTU ThermoPhysical Society and the GCUF and the University of Agriculture Faisalabad Physics Societies.
