Contents
The lecture will cover the following topics in scientific computing:
- typical tasks in the simulation pipeline in scientific computing;
- classification of mathematical models (discrete/continuous, deterministic/stochastic, etc.);
- modelling with (systems) of ordinary differential equations (example: population models);
- modelling with partial differential equations (example: heat equations);
- numerical treatment of models (discretisation of ordinary and partial differential equations: introduction to Finite Volume and Finite Element Methods, grid generation, assembly of the respective large systems of linear equations);
- analysis of the resulting numerical schemes (w.r.t. convergence, consistency, stability, efficiency);
An outlook will be given on the following topics:
- efficient implementation of numerical algorithms, both on monoprocessors and parallel computers (architectural features, parallel programming, load distribution, parallel numerical algorithms)
- interpretation of numerical results (visualization)
Lecture Notes and Material
Slides of the lectures, as well as worksheets and solutions for the tutorials, will be published here as they become available.

Preparation for Exam
Please note that the extent (in semester hours) and content of the lecture has changed from winter term 2012/13. Hence, previous years' exams might miss topics discussed in this year or contain material that is no longer covered in the lecture.
Catalogue of Exam Questions
The following catalogue contain questions collected by students of the lectures in winter 05/06 and 06/07. The catalogue is intended for preparation for the exam, only, and serves as some orientation. It's by no means meant to be a complete collection.
Last Years' Exams
Please, be aware that there are always slight changes in topics between the different years' lectures. Hence, the previous exams are not fully representative for this year's exam.
