Contents
This course provides an overview of scientific computing, i. e. of the different tasks to be tackled on the way towards powerful numerical simulations. The entire "pipeline" of simulation is discussed:
- mathematical models: derivation, analysis, and classification
- numerical treatment of these models: discretization of (partial) differential systems, grid generation
- efficient implementation of numerical algorithms: implementation on monoprocessors vs. parallel computers (architectural features, parallel programming, load distribution, parallel numerical algorithms)
- interpretation of numerical results & visualization
- validation
The course Scientific Computing 1 is intended for students in the Master's Program Computational Science and Engineering and of the English-language programs of the Department of Computer Science. Students in all other study programs, please consider our lecture Modellbildung und Simulation (see the lecture from summer term 2008, for example), instead.
