Foil 11 Some Comments on Simulation and HPCC

From Introduction to Computational Science CPS615 Computational Science Class -- Spring Semester 2000. by Geoffrey C. Fox


1 HPCC is a maturing field with many organizations installing large scale systems
2 These include NSF (academic computations) with PACI activity, DoE (Dept of Energy) with ASCI and DoD (Defense) with Modernization
3 There are new applications with new algorithmic challenges
  • Web Search and Hosting Applications
  • Our work on Black Holes has novel adaptive meshes
  • On earthquake simulation, new "fast multipole" approaches to a problem not tackled this way before
  • On financial modeling, new Monte Carlo methods for complex options
4 These have many new issues but typically issue is integrating new systems and not some new mathematical idea
