IAS-Seminar "A multigrid perspective on the parallel full approximation scheme in space and time"

Referent:

Abstract:

With the anticipated need for more than 100 million-way concurrency on emerging exascale HPC systems, interest in enhancing the strong-scalings limits of space-parallelism by parallelization of the time dimension is rapidly increasing. As a well-known time-parallelization method with a high modularity the ’parallel full approximation scheme in space and time’ (PFASST), is an excellent candidate for adaption to a variety of engineering and computational science problems. In this talk a mathematical foundation will be introduced for PFASST, consisting of a multigrid formulation and a customized Local Fourier Analysis. Then, a class of suitable problems is outlined, for which the mathematical foundation yields strategies to analyze and optimize the parallel efficiency and convergence rate of PFASST.

Alle Interessierten sind herzlich eingeladen.
