As methods for spatially representing solutions to partial differential equations mature, the current methods for temporal integration emerge as a bottleneck in many areas of large scale computational science. This is of particular concern as the emphasis in many applications and recent technologies requiring fully dynamic modeling over extended time periods.
The reasons for these shortcomings can be attributed to several sources of stiffness,
It is the purpose of this workshop to focus on these issues in more detail and, by bringing together experts in various fields, initiated a discussion on how to effectively address the significant challenges.
The format of the workshop will be as a number of 45 min long invited lectures with 15 minutes discussion time after. Those lecture will delineate the problems encountered as well as presenting a variety of existing and time-integration techniques. It will be a priority to attempt to understand the advantages and limitation of the different techniques to suggest directions in which research should be directed.
It is the intention to cover a broad range of topics of relevance to the workshop through the invited talks. Examples of planned topics are
