US Participation at the Twenty-sixth International Domain Decomposition Conference

自1987年以来，区域分解方法国际会议(DDM)已在亚洲、欧洲和北美的15个国家举行。这一享有盛誉的大会第27届将于2022年7月25日至29日在捷克布拉格的捷克技术大学举行。会议的主要议题是大规模科学计算问题，这是一个重要且非常普遍的跨学科研究领域，在许多应用领域发挥着至关重要的作用，如天气预报、地震预报、流体模拟、材料工业、油田勘探、医学成像等。这个项目将使美国的初级研究人员能够前往会议、网络并展示他们的研究。国际区域分解方法会议是唯一定期举行的国际论坛，致力于区域分解方法的开发、分析、软件实现和应用方面的理论家和实践者之间的跨学科技术互动，这些领域分解方法在科学计算中非常重要。这类问题的复杂性和规模往往导致非常大的系统，其中必须使用大量的计算资源和特殊的计算方法来获得近似解。随着亿级计算的到来，DDM等可扩展技术是解决复杂问题的重要工具，否则将难以解决。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

Since 1987, the International Conferences of Domain Decomposition Methods (DDM) have been held in 15 countries throughout Asia, Europe and North America. The 27th edition of this prestigious conference will be held at the Czech Technical University in Prague, Czech Republic, on July 25-29, 2022. The primary topic of the conference concerns large scale scientific computing problems, which are an important and very general interdisciplinary research field and plays a crucial role in many application areas, for example weather forecast, seismic predictions, fluid simulations, material industry, oil field exploration, medical imaging, among others. This project will enable US based junior researchers to travel to the conference, network, and present their research.The International Conference of Domain Decomposition Methods is the only regularly occurring international forum dedicated to interdisciplinary technical interactions between theoreticians and practitioners working in the development, analysis, software implementation, and application of domain decomposition methods, which are important in scientific computing. The complexity and size of such problems often lead to very large systems, where massive computing resources and special computational approaches must be employed to obtain approximate solutions. As we approach the dawn of exascale computing, scalable techniques such as DDM are vital tools for solving complex problems that would otherwise be intractable.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
