  2. 1. Efficient Partitioning of Dynamic Structured Grid Hierarchies

    Author : Johan Steensland; Michael Thuné; Jarmo Rantakokko; Charles Norton; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; scientific computing; partitioning; structured grids; adaptive mesh refinement; dynamic load balancing; Beräkningsvetenskap; Scientific Computing;

    Abstract : This thesis aims at decreasing execution time for large-scale structured adaptive mesh refinement (SAMR) applications executing on general parallel computers. The key contributions are (1) A conceptual dynamically adaptive meta-partitioner able to select and configure an appropriate partitioning technique, based on application and computer state, and (2) A characterization of new and existing domain-based partitioners, enabling a mapping from application and computer state onto appropriate partitioners, and (3) Sketched scalable solutions, expressed in terms of natural regions and expert algorithms, for the problem to efficiently partition large-scale SAMR applications with deep grid hierarchies executing on general parallel computers, and (4) A software partitioning tool Nature+Fable, implementing the greater parts of these sketched scalable solutions and engineered as part of the meta-partitioner.

  4. 2. Towards an adaptive solver for high-dimensional PDE problems on clusters of multicore processors

    Author : Magnus Gustafsson; Sverker Holmgren; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Accurate numerical simulation of time-dependent phenomena in many spatial dimensions is a challenging computational task apparent in a vast range of application areas, for instance quantum dynamics, financial mathematics, systems biology and plasma physics. Particularly problematic is that the number of unknowns in the governing equations (the number of grid points) grows exponentially with the number of spatial dimensions introduced, often referred to as the curse of dimensionality.

  5. 3. On Frequency Control Schemes in Power Systems with Large Amounts of Wind Power

    Author : Camille Hamon; Lennart Söder; Magnus Perninge; Henrik Hult; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wind power; Stochastic optimal power flows; Frequency control schemes; Tertiary frequency control; uncertainty; power systems;

    Abstract : In recent years, large investments have been made in wind power, and this trend is expected to continue in the coming decades. Integrating more wind power in the production mix offers great opportunities for the society, such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions and the dependence on foreign fuel.
