Automating embedded analysis capabilities and managing software complexity in multiphysics simulation part II: application to partial differential equations
A template-based generic programming approach was presented in a previous
paper that separates the development effort of programming a physical model
from that of computing additional quantities, such as derivatives, needed for
embedded analysis algorithms. In this paper, we describe the implementation
details for using the template-based generic programming approach for
simulation and analysis of partial differential equations (PDEs). We detail
several of the hurdles that we have encountered, and some of the software
infrastructure developed to overcome them. We end with a demonstration where we
present shape optimization and uncertainty quantification results for a 3D PDE
application
06472 Abstracts Collection - XQuery Implementation Paradigms
From 19.11.2006 to 22.11.2006, the Dagstuhl Seminar 06472 ``XQuery Implementation Paradigms'' was held in the International Conference and Research Center (IBFI), Schloss Dagstuhl. During the seminar, several participants presented their current research, and ongoing work and open problems were discussed. Abstracts of the presentations given during the seminar as well as abstracts of seminar results and ideas are put together in this paper. The first section describes the seminar topics and goals in general. Links to extended abstracts or full papers are provided, if available
XQ2P: Efficient XQuery P2P Time Series Processing
In this demonstration, we propose a model for the management of XML time
series (TS), using the new XQuery 1.1 window operator. We argue that
centralized computation is slow, and demonstrate XQ2P, our prototype of
efficient XQuery P2P TS computation in the context of financial analysis of
large data sets (>1M values)
Constructive Algebraic Topology
The classical ``computation'' methods in Algebraic Topology most often work
by means of highly infinite objects and in fact +are_not+ constructive. Typical
examples are shown to describe the nature of the problem. The Rubio-Sergeraert
solution for Constructive Algebraic Topology is recalled. This is not only a
theoretical solution: the concrete computer program +Kenzo+ has been written
down which precisely follows this method. This program has been used in various
cases, opening new research subjects and producing in several cases significant
results unreachable by hand. In particular the Kenzo program can compute the
first homotopy groups of a simply connected +arbitrary+ simplicial set.Comment: 24 pages, background paper for a plenary talk at the EACA Congress of
