The Swiss Graduate Program “Foundations in Mathematics and Informatics for Computer Simulations in Science and Engineering” (FoMICS), led by the Institute of Computational Science (ICS) at the Università della Svizzera italiana in Lugano, is pleased to announce the first FoMICS Prize for PhD Students. Selected applicants will have the opportunity to present their research in […]
The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) is a new co-sponsor of the PASC Conference. The annual conference is initiated by the Platform for Advanced Scientific Computing. The annual conference of the Platform for Advanced Scientific Computing (PASC) is a leading event for researchers in computational science and high-performance computing. From 2016, the PASC Conference will […]
Torsten Hoefler (ETH Zurich, Switzerland) interviews Satoshi Matsuoka (Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan) about his first impressions of PASC15 and the trends in computational science in the coming years after PASC15 Conference. Some keywords during the interview: how application needs will influence research in the design of new architectures for exascale, heterogeneous architectures, FPGA, co-design, […]
Recording of a plenary presentation during the PASC15 Conference. www.pasc15.org Abstract Algorithmic adaptations are required to use anticipated exascale hardware near its potential, since the code base has been engineered to squeeze out flops. Instead, algorithms must now squeeze out synchronizations, memory, and transfers, while extra flops on locally cacheable data represent small costs in […]
Recording of a plenary presentation during the PASC15 Conference. www.pasc15.org Abstract Exascale computing will enable combustion simulations in parameter regimes relevant to next-generation combustors burning alternative fuels. The first principles direct numerical simulations (DNS) are needed to provide the underlying science base required to develop vastly more accurate predictive combustion models used ultimately to design […]
