'Shrinking bull's-eye' algorithm speeds up complex modeling from days to hours

'Shrinking bull's-eye' algorithm speeds up complex modeling from days to hours Boston MA (SPX) Nov 25, 2015 - To work with computational models is to work in a world of unknowns: Models that simulate complex physical processes - from Earth's changing climate to the performance of hypersonic combustion engines - are staggeringly complex, sometimes incorporating hundreds of parameters, each of which describes a piece of the larger process. Parameters are often question marks within their models, the ... more
