This event is sponsored by the UK's Science and Innovation Centre for Numerical Algorithms and Intelligent Software (NAIS), with principal funding provided by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council and the Scottish Funding Council. Organization is provided by the School of Mathematics, the Edinburgh Parallel Computing Centre and the International Centre for the Mathematical Sciences. The scientific committee of the meeting consists of R. Harrison (Stony Brook), B. Leimkuhler (Edinburgh), P. Plechac (Delaware), and S. Plimpton (Sandia National Laboratory).
Overview
While the scope of the workshop is very broad (spanning quantum, classical and mesoscale techniques) the emphasis will be on mathematical approaches, stochastic numerical algorithms and parallel computing issues. The goal is to seek points in common among scale-bridging techniques in different modelling regimes. The experience of the participants is also expected to be quite broad, with chemists, engineers, physicists and mathematicians all presenting talks on both theoretical and applied topics. Graduate students and postdoctoral researchers are particularly encouraged to attend both the tutorial and the meeting.
