The DOE SciDAC institutes have supported PETSc linear solver research/code
development for the past fifteen years.
This email is to solicit ideas for linear solver research/code development
work for the next round of SciDAC institutes (which will be a 4 year period) in
PETSc. Please send me any ideas, no matter how crazy, on things you feel are
missing, broken, or incomplete in PETSc with regard to linear solvers that we
should propose to work on. In particular, issues coming from particular classes
of applications would be good. Generic "multi physics" coupling types of things
are too general (and old :-)) while work for extreme large scale is also out
since that is covered under another call (ECP). But particular types of
optimizations etc for existing or new codes could be in, just not for the very
large scale.
Rough ideas and pointers to publications are all useful. There is an
extremely short fuse so the sooner the better,
Thanks
Barry
