About the Project
Modeling and simulation of complex technical problems:
effective numerical algorithms and parallel implementation
using new information technologies is a project of
the Program of the Information Society of the Thematic Program II
of the National Research Program of the Czech Republic Project number 1ET400300415.
The project has started on July 1st, 2004 and is planned for 4.5 years.

Aim of the Project
The project aims at development of methods of computational
mathematics and computer science for computer modeling and simulation
using parallel computing and optimized computer implementations. The
project will result in new (mainly iterative) algorithms of numerical
linear algebra characterized by high effectiveness, parallel scalability
and good robustness. They will be implemented on large distributed and
multiprocessor systems, and applied in particular to the solution of
problems arising from
- mechanics of underground constructions and assessment of mining technologies as well as problems of biomechanics,
- flow and transport of contaminants in porous rocks including chemical reactions,
- metal forming and design of machine components,
- evaluation of reliability of complex systems,
- analysis of scattering of electromagnetic field on periodic structures.
The project should at the same time form a team able to solve
strategic problems and systematically prepare young
researchers.
