"Parallelism, Adaptivity and Uncertainty Quantification – Marriages Not Made in Heaven"

This talk will focus on a number of computational issues arising from the use of adaptive methods and uncertainty quantification on large parallel computers. The context is provided by recent work on quantifying volcanic hazard risk over an entire jurisdiction but the computational methodology should apply to a large class of problems

characterized by the solution of complex partial differential equations using numerical discretization. We describe efficient methods for data management in distributed computations and the crucial role of adaptivity in making these computations feasible.
