2008 DOE Summer School in Multiscale Mathematics and High Performance Computing
4-6 August | Richland, Washington
The Northwest Consortium for Multiscale Mathematics and Applications invites you to participate in a summer school on multiscale mathematics and high performance computing. The school will be held on the campus of the Washington State University—Tri-Cities. In addition, the presentations will be broadcast over the internet. View the schedule of presentations.
The purpose of this summer school is to provide:
- introductions to the mathematical and computational methods commonly used to model physical systems at various scales: continuum methods, discrete methods, statistical methods, network methods
- surveys of developing mathematical and computational approaches for bridging the scales between current methods
- tutorials on parallel computing and MPI
- instructor-led laboratory activities for exploring the lecture concepts in parallel computing environments
- research talks to motivate the development of new methods
NOTE: A limited amount of funding is available to cover students' lodging, meals, and incidental expenses.
The funding for this workshop is provided by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Advanced Scientific Computing Research's program in Multiscale Mathematics.
