| info | Parallel Computing | Prof. Bastian | Nov 9th - Nov 11th 2009; 09:00-16:00 | ECTS-Points: 3 |
| Abstract: The course gives a thorough introduction to parallel programming. Topics covered are 1.) Overview of the architecture of parallel computers 2.) Characterisation of parallel algorithms (e.g. Speedup) 3.) Shared memory programming with OpenMP and Threads 4.) Distributed memory programming with MPI 5.) Parallel programming on graphic adapters (CUDA) The lectures are accompanied by exercises where the usage of the different parallelization techniques are applied to solve practical problems. Prerequisites: Programming skills in C or C++ (as e.g. acquired in the lecture Informatik I) Registration: Due to number of computers available the maximal number of participants is 25. Please register by sending an E-Mail to ingrid.hellwig@iwr.uni-heidelberg.de before Wednesday November 4. Link for more information | Time: 9:00 | Location: OMZ U014, OMZ U011 |

| info | Mathematical modelling of cellular biosystem | Anna Marciniak-Czochra (with Anna Trykozko and Zuzanna Szymanska) | 01.10.-03.10.2009 | ECTS-Points: 0 |
| Abstract: Due to the revolutionary new technologies that have arisen in the field of biological data collection, an enormous amount of information on a molecular and cellular scale has become available and much has been learned about the molecular components involved in signal transduction during normal and pathological development. Such progress is producing a growing need to quantitatively understand and manipulate this data and translate it into practical applications. Researchers in computational and theoretical biology are using a variety of mathematical approaches to understand and manipulate biological processes. This workshop is devoted to multiscale aspects of mathematical modelling and analysis of transport processes and regulatory feedbacks in cell systems. Recent results and theoretical methods from multiscale analysis and nonlinear dynamics will be discussed in the context of applications to the study of the collective properties of biological systems. The main topics to be studied are: Models for cell differentiation and transformation Models of the transport processes in a complex medium The workshop is organised within the framework of the Polish-German Graduate College (Research Training Group 710), Heidelberg Graduate School of Mathematical and Computational Methods for the Sciences and International PhD Programme (MPD). | Time: 7:00 | Location: ICM, Warshaw, Polen |
