High-Performance Computing

Efficient implementation of parallel wave propagation solvers and their adaptation to adjoint wavefields.
The generation of computational grids for the specific applications (reservoirs, volcanoes, faults, planets) and the e-infrastructure to disseminate them to the network partners.
Provision of access to European supercomputer infrastructure through national supercomputer centers (DEISA/DEGREE).
This WP will also set up a web-infrastructure for the imaging benchmark exercises.
Training on computational issues (e.g., parallel programming) shall be provided through this WP in collaboration with computational scientists of the local supercomputer centers and the training offered through DEISA.
