Course details
Advanced computer applications
APP Acad. year 2003/2004 Summer semester 6 credits
The course is aimed at practical methods of solving problems encountered in science and engineering: large systems of differential equations, algebraic equations, partial differential equations,stiff systems, problems in automatic control, electric circuits, mechanical systems, electrostatic and electromagnetic fields. An original method based on a direct use of Taylor series is used to solve the problems numerically. The course also includes analysis of parallel algorithms and design of special architectures for the numerical solution of differential equations. A special simulation language TKSL is available implemented on one-processor systems (PC486, Pentium) and on multi-processor systems.
