We sincerely congratulate the following colleagues on their recent promotions: Joaquim Peiro – Professor of Engineering Computation Colin Cotter – Professor of Computational Mathematics Chris Cantwell – Senior Lecturer in Aeronautics David Moxey – Senior Lecturer in Engineering

Date: 2-6 September 2019 Location: Imperial College London, UK Scientific scope:  We have received unprecedented interest in the IUTAM Transition 2019. We received nearly 200 abstract submissions. We run plenary sessions, individual talks and networking sessions. The scientific programme covered a range of fundamental topic areas, including: Global analysis of instabilities and receptivities for complex […]

The Devito dev team have reason to be more excited than most about DownUnder GeoSolutions (DUG) newly announced 250 petaflop (single-precision) supercomputer, known as “Bubba”. In order to make full use of these FLOPS, DUG have been developing a new seismic imaging software stack using our open source framework, Devito. Devito is an open source Domain-specific Language (DSL) […]

We are very excited to announce that the follow-on platform grant, PRISM II, has been funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council. It will commence on 1st July 2018.

Imperial College is hosting the 2018 PETSc User Meeting. Three of the co-organisers are from the PRISM team. PETSc, the Portable, Extensible Toolkit for Scientific Computing, is one of the world’s most widely used software libraries for high-performance computational science. We’ll hold our fourth annual user meeting (second in the EU), give tutorials on how […]

Through his involvement with PRISM Spencer has been invited to act as an expert panel member for the Council for Science and Technology Review on Modelling Chaired by Sir Mark Walport. The review is planned to be published later this year.

There were two presentations from the Imperial College Nektar++ group: David Moxey: “H-to-P Efficiently: The Use of Collections with Accelerators Within Nektar++” in the minisymposium “Efficiency of High-Order Methods on the 2nd Generation Intel Xeon Phi Processor” (MS15) Martin Vymazal: “Towards combined CG-DG for elliptic problems” in the minisymposium “Recent Developments in Discontinuous Galerkin Methods”.

ADER-DG – a high-order, compute-bound scheme for future supercomputers? When: Thursday 15th December, 4pm Where: Imperial College London, Huxley 311 Supercomputers of the current petascale and future exascale class are posing new requirements on simulation software. Besides demands for energy efficiency or resiliency, a key requirement on exascale-ready numerical schemes is posed by the trend […]
