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
