Welcome to the website of Hans De Sterck's Scalable Scientific Computing research group at the University of Waterloo.

We do research on scalable scientific computing methods and applications.
Large-scale computational problems in science and engineering require scalable algorithms and methods: it is crucial that algorithms remain efficient as problem sizes increase. We focus on numerical methods for partial differential equations and on multilevel numerical linear algebra methods. Applications are considered in various areas, including information retrieval, Markov chains, graphs, image processing, fluid dynamics, space physics, and the biomedical field.

We are housed in the Department of Applied Mathematics of the University of Waterloo, and also have close ties to Waterloo's Centre for Computational Mathematics, and to the Scientific Computation Group of Waterloo's School of Computer Science. We use computing resources provided by SHARCNET.
