Subject: Runge Kutta Brain Teasers

Difficulty level 1:
Can you tell which of the following names does not
belong to the rest?

RK, ERK, IRK, CIRK, DIRK, FIRK, KIRK, MIRK, PIRK,
SIRK, CSIRK, EDIRK, ESIRK, RDIRK, SDIRK, ESDIRK ?

Difficulty level 2:
Find an embedded implicit Runge-Kutta method.

I would be very grateful for any help. My search encompasses
embedded fully implicit as well as diagonally implicit, or ESDIRK
methods. So far, it appears that virtually all existing embedded
RK methods are explicit, see for example the Wikipedia page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Runge%E2%80%93Kutta_methods.

Sincerely,

Pavel Solin

Subject: CERFACS' PALM coupler now open source (LGPL 3.0)

PALM is a dynamic parallel coupler developed at CERFACS.
Originally designed for data assimilation, PALM is now used for a
variety of applications in many fields of multi-physics coupling
ranging from oceanography to hydraulics, from hydrology to
agronomy, from aeronautics to space engineering and so on. PALM
based applications run on every size of computer, from laptop to
massively parallel or vector supercomputers. More than 250
scientists and engineers have been trained to PALM usage, and
every week new research laboratories, industries or computing
service companies join the PALM users' community. After more
than ten years of developments and thanks to the positive and
constructive users' feedback, PALM is now ready to become open
source under the version 3.0 of the LGPL license. For this reason
it has been renamed O-PALM, as a shorthand for Open-PALM.
You can find further detailed informations on O-PALM, including
contacts, on the dedicated web site http://www.cerfacs.fr/globc/PALM_WEB.

You can download the most recent O-PALM version (currently 4.0.0)
from http://www.cerfacs.fr/globc/PALM_WEB/EN/BECOMEAUSER/download/.
The release includes the PALM library, the PrePALM graphic user
interface and the documentation (including a tutorial).

You do not need to sign any agreement, but you are kindly
requested to register as a user. This will contribute to make the
O-PALM users' community getting more and more structured and to
share resources and hints. CERFACS regularly provides training
sessions with a frequency that will suit the users' needs. The
dates, conditions and fares for the training sessions are
constantly updated on the PALM web site:
http://www.cerfacs.fr/globc/PALM_WEB/EN/BECOMEAUSER/training.html.
CERFACS shareholders and CNRS institutions benefit a specific
training fare.

Subject: Guaranteed Extended Precision - Timing Benchmark

Hi all,

As my quest for function evaluation time benchmarks (NA-Digest,
V. 10, # 51) was not successful, I have published one for the
Bessel function of the first kind, for guaranteed precision of 64
bits (i.e. 80-bit floating point). See details at
http://www.iging.com/NumericalAnalysis\XP_Bessel.htm. Also, upon
request (for testing purposes) the Bessel function is available
for free.

Your comments and suggestions are welcome.

Subject: Hierarchical Parallelism in HPC Systems, Poland, Sep 2011

INVITATION AND CALL FOR PAPER: Workshop on Models, Algorithms and
Methodologies for Hierarchical Parallelism in new HPC Systems
Torun, Poland, September 11-14, 2011

In conjunction with PPAM 2011

From an architectural point of view, a High Performance Computing
system can be described by means of a hierarchical multi-level
structure: at the highest level there are several systems
connected among them by geographic networks (System level), an
intermediate level is composed by the nodes in a single system
communicating among them by means of dedicated fast networks or
high performance switches (Node level), at the lowest level,
finally, there are several computing elements, computing cores as
well as graphic accelerators, sharing resources in a single
CPU (Core level). These architecture levels have very different
features and they require different algorithmic development
methodologies. For such a reason, the development of algorithms
and scientific software for these system implies a suitable
combination of several methodologies to deal with the different
kinds of parallelism corresponding to each architectural
level. The general aim is then the development of hybrid and
hierarchical algorithms, able to be aware of the underlying
platform.

Subject: Postdoc Position, K.U. Leuven

Postdoc position: Numerical simulation of complementarity
systems, with applications to power electronic circuits

Power electronics are widely present in applications where one
form of electrical energy is converted into another. Examples
include power supplies in consumer electronics, industrial
electric motor drives, electro-heating, lighting and
energy-efficient interfaces between renewable energy resources
and the distribution grid.

Power electronic converters make use of semiconductor components
operating at a high switching frequency to reach the desired
dynamics at a slower time scale. Modeling and simulation methods
are indispensable for the design and analysis of these
converters. Because of the large difference in time scales,
non-smooth methods are needed to make a simulation possible in a
reasonable amount of time. Recent research results indicate the
potential of complementarity systems, a subclass of hybrid
systems, in modeling and simulation power electronic systems.

In the context sketched above we have a vacancy for a junior
postdoc (less than 5 years experience after PhD) whose task is to
develop numerical methods for time-integration (simulation) and
control of switched complementarity systems. The emphasis lies on
generic methods and software, whose application is not
exclusively limited to power electronic systems (other
applications include mechanical systems and dynamic
optimization).

The postdoc position result from a joint project between the
Scientific Computing Research Group (htt://twr.cs.kuleuven.be)
and the Division Electa (http://www.esat.kuleuven.be/electa/) of
the K.U. Leuven. The requirements are a strong background in
computational mathematics, in particular numerical
time-integration (simulation), a strong interest in programming
and strong collaboration skills. The position will be initially
offered for one year.

Subject: PhD, Stochastic Subgrid Models, Imperial College London

Funding is available for a PhD studentship supervised by Dr Pavel
Berloff (Department of Mathematics) and Dr Colin Cotter
(Department of Aeronautics) at Imperial College London on the
subject of "Stochastic models of unresolved eddies for ocean and
climate models", funded by the Grantham Institute for Climate
Change.

Project description: This project will investigate a new approach
to one of the Grand Challenges of 21st century science, namely
how to accurately model the effects of ocean eddies that are too
small to be represented on grids of ocean models. Due to
nonlinear interactions, even though these eddies are small, their
effects are felt on the global scale; without them, models fail
to predict ocean circulation patterns and their response to
global warming correctly. Recently, a very promising direction
has been to model subgrid eddies stochastically, i.e. as random
processes. In this project, we will use a computational dynamical
systems algorithm called the "Ensemble Kalman Filter", commonly
used in inverse problems, data assimilation and machine learning,
to construct such models; this innovative approach will lead to
new understanding of subgrid eddies and the potential of more
accurate ocean and climate predictions.

For more details see:

Students wishing to apply should contact Dr Colin Cotter
(colin.cotter@imperial.ac.uk) before 13th February 2011.
International students are welcome and elligible for the
bursary, but will need to contribute the difference between
EU and international fees.
