Course Description
Provide students with advanced techniques that are common to high performance computer simulations
in science and engineering. Scalable algorithms for both deterministic and stochastic simulations
of particles and continuum will be implemented on massively parallel and
distributed computing platforms, and the simulation datasets will be visualized and analyzed
in immersive and interactive virtual environment. For details, please see
course information sheet.
