Following the success of previous years, CSC/NAG are again running the
Autumn School "Core Algorithms for High Performance Scientific
Computing", 24 Sep - 28 Sep 2012 at the Centre for Scientific
Computing, Univ of Warwick.
Description: Many scientific calculations can be cast as problems in
computational linear algebra and optimisation. Powerful algorithms for
such problems form a common core of most scientific software. This
school will develop a solid grounding in the mathematics of these
algorithms; discuss the efficient implementation in a range of
standard libraries and demonstrate effective use in real,
high-performance scientific applications.
Aimed at: This school is ideal for beginning PhD students or Postdocs
in all scientific disciplines wishing to make effective use of
substantial computational resources to tackle new scientific problems.
Attendance is free to HECToR users and UK academics within the remit
of one of the participating research councils (EPSRC, NERC and BBSRC).

In the past this school has been oversubscribed. Participants are
encouraged to register early to avoid disappointment.
