Adaptive computational methods are opening new possibilities for accurate simulation of complex systems in science and engineering modeled by differential equations, including phenomena of solid and fluid mechanics, electromagnetics, chemical reactions and molecular dynamics. Adaptive methods include optimization procedures based on computational feed-back, aiming at reliable quantitative control of both computational and modeling errors with efficient use of computational resources. The purpose of the workshop is to bring together researchers working on different aspects of adaptive methods for differential equations including mathematical basis, solvers and applications.
Organization: The workshop is held at the Royal Institute, March 30-Apr il 1 1998, in lecture room D2, Lindstedtsvägen 5, in connection with the year on Numerical Analysis 97/98 at the Mittag-Leffler Institute and the special program on Adaptive Methods in March and April 1998. The workshop is organized by Bertil Gustafsson (Uppsala Univ), Claes Johnson (Chalmers), Per Lötstedt (Uppsala Univ) and Anders Szepessy (Royal Institute).
Schedule: The registration starts at 8.30 am on Monday March 30 and the first talk is at 9.00 am March 30 in room D2. The last talk will end on Wednesday at noon. We will have a joint dinner on Monday evening.
Invited participants include: Scott Baden (San Diego), Don Estep (Georgia Tech), Bill Henshaw (Los Alamos), Lee Jameson (Hawaii), David Keyes (Norfolk), Donnatella Marini (Pavia), Mats Larson (Minneapolis), Jean-Claude Nedelec (Paris), Ken Powell (Ann Arbor), Rolf Rannacher (Heidelberg), Ridgway Scott (Houston), Gustaf Soderlind (Lund), Endre Suli (Oxford).
Registration form: Researchers wanting to participate in the workshop should register.
