This is the second year the workshop is offered through Supercomputing (SC). Quantum computing is emerging as a remarkable technology that promises to achieve major scientific breakthroughs. This includes solving complex problems whose solution lies well beyond contemporary and even future supercomputers based on conventional technologies. Interacting with these quantum computers, including noisy-intermediate scale quantum devices, for both basic and applied research will require a unique collection of software tools and techniques. The purpose of this workshop is to explore the innovative software needed to make quantum computing practical and accessible. The workshop will focus heavily on the tools and software for quantum computing with particular emphasis on realized implementations. Important Dates: Paper-Submission Deadline: Friday, August 27, 2021 Author Notification: Friday, October 8, 2021 Workshop: Monday, November 15, 2021 For further information, please see https://events.cels.anl.gov/event/27/overview ------------------------------------------------------- From: Edmond Chow [log in to unmask] Date: July 11, 2021 Subject: Assistant Professor Position, CSE, Georgia Tech The School of Computational Science and Engineering (CSE) at the Georgia Institute of Technology invites applications for the Edenfield Early Career Professorship at the Assistant Professor level (tenure-track).

Numerical analysis of compatible finite element schemes for rotating stratified flows. This EPSRC project will involve a combination of numerical analysis and fluid dynamics to design and analyse a next-to-lowest order compatible finite element model for the 3D compressible Euler equations in spherical geometry using the Firedrake finite element library. The use of the Firedrake library greatly simplifies the implementation of finite element algorithms, allowing flexible and rapid investigation of a range of ideas. The types of challenges that could be explored in this project include: 1) Design and analysis of efficient, scalable solvers for the Helmholtz equation that arises in the computation of the pressure field. 2) Design and analysis of conservative and, where necessary, positivity- preserving advection schemes. The challenge here is that different fields live in different finite element function spaces, which require different strategies to achieve stability and conservation 3) Development and investigation of innovative timestepping algorithms for the full nonlinear system. This could involve numerical analysis of operator splitting methods or predictor-corrector type schemes that achieve efficiency through time-parallelism 4) Design and analyse robust algorithms that can be applied to deformed grids, such as vertically stretched grids, as used in the Met Office Unified Model, and the terrain following grids required when orography is introduced. The convergence of the algorithm depends on the regularity of the mapping from the domain to the reference element. The finite element function spaces required in this project have a tensor product structure which separates the horizontal and vertical discretisations and this will pose a challenge for designing algorithms that are robust when combined with the smoothing operators commonly applied to terrain following grids.
