1. Research Goals

  • Substantially advance our knowledge in developing fast algorithms for solving integral equations of electromagnetic scattering with reduced computational complexity and memory requirements.
  • Enhance our ability to solve partial differential equations of electromagnetic scattering by reducing grid-dispersion error and modeling error.
  • Develop hybridization with high-frequency methods to further expand the class of problems we can handle in addition to fast numerical methods.
  • Parallelize our algorithms on massively parallel machines and distributed systems to harness maximal throughput from present day computers.
  • Develop computational engines as work-horses and application specific modules for easy interfacing with real-world applications problems.
