    Title:
    Parallel Time Integration: An Overview

    Abstract:

    Due to the massive growth of parallel computers it is worth to take a look on methods to tackle differential equations with methods which are parallel in time. This is challenging due to the causality which is naturally present in differential equations. I present methods covering different types of parallel methods, namely shooting type, domain decomposition, multigrid and direct solvers. The talk will strongly depend on the article “50 Years of Time Parallel Time Integration” by Martin J. Gander who did a great job in covering the evolution of the field.
