ETH Life just published an article on the Car-Parrinello method for performing ab-initio quantum mechanical molecular dynamics (MD). Prof. Parrinello, one of the two scientists that created the methods holds a dual professorship at ETH Zurich and the Università della Svizzera italiana in Lugano from 2011. The method has been developed 25 years ago and [...]
On September 20th, the Università della Svizzera italiana (USI) inaugured the new Institute of Computational Sciences (Istituto di scienze computazionali, ICS). The ICS provides a unique research environment, where strong competences in modeling, simulation and information science come together in an open and application oriented atmosphere. This “virtual laboratory” will conduct complex simulations with supercomputers [...]
HP2C and the Università della Svizzera Italiana (USI) are happy to present a talk of Philippe Toint on Cubic regularization algorithm and complexity issues for nonconvex optimization (August 2010).
HP2C and the Università della Svizzera Italiana (USI) are happy to present two talks of Rupert Klein, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany (August 2010). Multiple scales analyses and numerics for atmospheric flows Regime(s) of validity of sound-proof models
Università della Svizzera Italiana (USI) is offering a Master of Informatics with Major in Computational Science. This full time programme is worth 120 ECTS and stretches over two years. It allows students to personalize their study curricula according to their individual interests. As the Master will be launched in September 2010, the precise study programme [...]
