Sparse Solvers for Exascale: From Building Blocks to Applications

Greifswald

Topics

The workshop focuses on the issues of high-performance and exascale computing from the perspective of building blocks, algorithms, and applications. Specific topics addressed in the contributions include
  • Fault tolerance
  • Energy awareness
  • Sparse Solvers
  • Krylov, Jacobi-Davidson, Chebyshev techniques
  • Sparse matrix kernels
  • Hybrid programming
  • Computation of eigenstates and spectral information
  • Time evolution
  • Quantum physics at the exascale level

The principal intentions of the workshop are similar to those of the DFG priority programme "Software for Exascale Computing (SPPEXA)".
