Upcoming VECMA Multiscale Modelling and Simulation (MMS) workshop associated with ICCS 2021 in Krakow, Poland, 16-18 Jun 2021

VECMA is organising the 3rd Multiscale Modelling and Simulation (MMS) workshop associated with ICCS 2021 in Krakow, Poland, 16-18 Jun 2021.

Modelling and simulation of multiscale systems constitutes a grand challenge in computational science, and is widely applied in fields ranging from the physical sciences and engineering to the life science and the socio-economic domain. Most of the real-life systems encompass interactions within and between a wide range of spatio-temporal scales, and/or on many separate levels of organization. They require the development of sophisticated models and computational techniques to accurately simulate the diversity and complexity of multiscale problems, and to effectively capture the wide range of relevant phenomena within these simulations. Additionally, these multiscale models frequently need large scale computing capabilities as well as dedicated software and services VECMA is delivering that enable the exploitation of existing and evolving computational ecosystems.

The MMS workshop aims to provide a forum for multiscale application modellers, framework developers and experts from the distributed infrastructure communities to identify and discuss challenges in, and possible solutions for, modelling and simulating multiscale systems, as well as their execution on advanced computational resources and their validation against experimental data.

Description and further details for the 3rd MMS workshop can be found from the web address here. Key topics of the MMS workshop include:

  • Simulation and modelling of multiscale systems.
  • Challenging applications in science, industry or society (e.g. in computational biology).
  • Verification, validation and uncertainty quantification in a multiscale simulation/modelling context.
  • New approaches for coupling and scale bridging, to combine different models and scales in one application.
  • Advanced numerical methods for solving multiscale problems.
  • Software approaches for simulating multiscale systems, and handling the complex workloads accompanying it.
  • Executing multiscale models on advanced computational infrastructures (distributed, HPC, cloud, etc.).
  • Performance analysis of multiscale applications and/or tools.

Paper submission is now live and open: https://www.iccs-meeting.org/iccs2021/, deadline 19 Dec 2020. Please keep track of the ICCS 2021website for news and updates.
