Advances Concerning Multiscale Methods and Uncertainty Quantification in EXA-DUNE

چکیده
In this contribution we present advances concerning efficient parallel multiscale methods and uncertainty quantification that have been obtained in the frame of the DFG priority program 1648 Software for Exascale Computing (SPPEXA) within the funded project EXA-DUNE. This project aims at the development of flexible but nevertheless hardware-specific software components and scalable high-level algorithms for the solution of partial differential equations based on the DUNE platform. While the development of hardware-based concepts and software components is detailed in the companion paper [Bastian et al.. Hardware-based Efficiency Advances in the EXA-DUNE Project, Proceedings of the SPPEXA Symposium 2016, Jan. 25-27, 2016, Munich, Germany], we focus here on the development of scalable multiscale methods in the context of uncertainty quantification. Such problems add additional layers of coarse grained parallelism, as the underlying problems require the solution of many local or global partial differential equations in parallel that are only weakly coupled.

متن کاملUncertainty Quantification for Porous Media Flow Using Multilevel Monte Carlo
Uncertainty quantification (UQ) for porous media flow is of great importance for many societal, environmental and industrial problems. An obstacle to the progress in solving such problems, as well as in solving other stochastic PDEs, SPDEs, is the extreme computational effort needed for solving realistic problems. It is expected that the computers will open the door for a significant progress i...

WP 1: Hardware abstraction layer The functionality of the hardware abstraction layer anticipated in the proposal has so far been directly integrated into code developed in WP2/4 as its final functionality is not yet clear. Experiments with different approaches to realise“forall”-semantics yielded mixed results. We will decide in the course of the project if a common layer can be defined when mo...
متن کاملDeveloping the Next Generation Scalable Exascale Uncertainty Quantification Methods
Predictive modeling of multiscale and multiphysics systems requires accurate data-driven characterization of the input uncertainties and understanding how they propagate across scales and alter the final solution. We will address three major current limitations in modeling stochastic systems: (1) Most of current uncertainty quantification methods cannot detect and handle discontinuity in the pa...
