When
and Where
Organized by the Macsinet Working
Group “ Coupled Problems and Model Reduction” at
the MOX - Modeling and Scientific Computing Center at the Polictecnico di
Milano (Italy) on 12-13 December 2002.
Introduction:
Model reduction is a topic which
receives growing attention, both in the mathematics community and in various
application areas. In electronics, for example, reduced models are used
to capture the behavior of complicated interconnected systems in the form
of a small electronic circuit. This `artificial' small circuit can be
coupled with an existing circuit and co-simulated with it, so as to obtain
a better description of the system consisting of the circuit and its interconnects.
Similar approaches are used in other areas, the common denominator being
the mathematical techniques for model reduction, both on the algebraic
and operator level, e.g., cardiovascular, electromagnetic, enviroment,
uid-dynamics and naval, applications. With regard to model reduction carried
out on the operator level, it is intended the coupling among di erential
models characterized by different complexity. For example, in cardiovascular
applications, one can use the Navier-Stokes equations to model the local
behavior of a part of the circulation system, and ordinary differential
equations to model the remaining parts, or in microelectronics applied
to the simulation of semiconductor devices, one can use the hydrodynamic
model where the most relevant transport phenomena occurr and the drift-diffusion
model in the other parts of the device. This topic was not covered on
the first workshop on Model Reduction, held in Eindhoven in October 2001.
Since model reduction on the operator level is a relatively new and growing
area, we have decided to dedicate the second workshop of our Working Group
to the theme of Model Reduction.

The workshop will be
held at the MOX - Modeling and Scientifc Computing center, at the
Politecnico di Milano, with local organizer Prof. Alfo Quarteroni.
For the purpose of reserving sufficient time for discussions among
the members of the Working Group, the workshop will span 2 days.
The proposed date has been fixed to December 12-13, 2002. Renowned
experts in the field of model reduction will present lectures on
the state of the art of the field. We intend to invite the following
speakers, yet to be contacted, and their list is preliminary and
non complete.
