Warwick Symposium 2008/9 - Challenges in Scientific Computing

华威2008-2009研讨会将围绕六个工作坊、一个访问计划和一个顶点会议组织，所有这些都通过科学计算的共同主题联系在一起。六个研讨会的重点是应用和方法的主题领域，涵盖计算流体动力学，计算神经科学，计算偏微分方程，马尔可夫链蒙特卡罗，分子动力学和量子模拟。研讨会将是小型会议。没有平行的会议，有大量的时间进行非正式的交流。访客计划将为华威带来9名长期访客，他们将参与与研讨会涵盖的六个主题领域相关的研究，并提供他们之间的联系。顶点会议将涵盖科学计算的广泛主题，并将包括由国际领先研究人员进行的16次全体会议以及专题会议。

The Warwick 2008-2009 Symposium will be organized around six workshops, a visitor program, and a capstone conference, all linked through the common theme of Scientific Computing. The six workshops are focussed on both application and methodological subject areas, and cover Computational Fluid Dynamics, Computational Neuroscience, Computational PDEs, Markov Chain Monte-Carlo, Molecular Dynamics and Quantum Simulations. The workshops will be small meetings. with no parallel sessions and significant time for informal interactions. The visitor program will bring nine longer term visitors to Warwick who will engage in research related to the six subject areas covered in the workshops, and provide links between them. The capstone conference will cover a wide range of subjects in Scientific Computing, and will feature 16 plenary talks, by leading international reseachers, as well as contributed sessions.
