Event Details/Other Comments:

Domain decomposition is an active, interdisciplinary research area
concerned with the development, analysis, and implementation of
coupling and decoupling strategies in mathematical and computational
models of natural and engineered systems. The conference returns to
the USA for the first time since 1997, when there was one computer in
the world delivering 1 Tflop/s. Today, there are in excess of 250 such
computers worldwide, on which large-scale simulations are parallelized
by domain decomposition methods.
Contributions to the 16th international conference are encouraged in
areas of mathematical and numerical analysis, computer science,
scientific and industrial applications, and software development.
Besides the traditional focus on systems governed by PDEs,
contributions in domain-decomposed approaches to eigenanalysis,
optimization, and large-scale network, circuit, and data analysis, and
other areas are encouraged.
