= Preliminary session =

Wednesday, July 2, 2014, 12:30pm in room 02.07.023
<!-- The seminar session will be in three block sessions between Dec 8 and Dec 12 (see schedule below). -->

= Seminar Topics =

The seminar takes a look at fundamental approaches and models frequently encountered in applications from computational science and engineering.
Seminar topics and discussions cover models for the solved problems, as well as mathematical, algorithmic, and implementational aspects of approaches to their solution.

Possible topics of presentations are: 
# Tsunami simulations
<!--# Fast linear algebra in scientific computing --><!-- (e.g., preconditioning, dense LA libraries) -->
# Molecular Dynamics
# Graph-partitioning algorithms <!-- (METIS/PARMETIS, Zoltan, Multilevel GP,...) -->
# Plasma physics
# SPH simulations in astrophysics  <!-- (GADGET for cosmological N-body/SPH simulations via multipole methods) -->
# The fast multipole method
# Traffic simulations
# Model order reduction
# Algebraic multigrid
# Classification
# Lattice-Boltzmann simulations
# Uncertainty quantification
# Preconditioners for linear systems

<!-- '''In all presentations, the focus should not be on the library features, but on the numerical, algorithmic, and implementational approaches!''' -->

= Schedule =

== Seminar Outline ==
Each student will give one presentation (approx. 30 minutes) in the seminar. In addition to her or his talk, each student will have to prepare a short paper of around 5 pages (double-column).
The final grade will depend on both, presentation and paper.
<!-- optional: ...which will be reviewed by two other seminar participants. The paper and the two reviews will, in addition to the talk, be considered to determine the final grade.-->

== Deadlines ==

* deadline for presentation: '''Mon, Dec 1, 2014, 12am''' <!--'''Mon, Nov 10, 2014'''.-->
<!-- * deadline for review: '''t.b.a.'''--> <!-- '''Mon, Dec 1, 2014'''.-->
* deadline for final paper: '''Mon, Dec 8, 2014, 12am''' <!-- '''Mon, Dec 15, 2014'''-->

== Presentations ==

The seminar talks will be given in presumably 3-4 block sessions on the dates given in the table below.

The final presentation schedule will be given here once the list of participants and topics are fixed. 

<!--The following suggested session schedule is preliminary: sessions might start one week (or even a couple of weeks) earlier or later, and sessions might be swapped.-->
