Topic: 

Milestones in Multigrid

 

Description: 

As the end of the first decade of the millennium draws nigh, multigrid 
computational methods are gracefully gliding towards their Golden
Jubilee at 
their famous linear rate of convergence. In this largely nontechnical
talk we
shall animate the fundamental concepts underlying multigrid methods,
retrace 
their evolution over the years, hone in on a selection of multigrid milestones, 
survey recent and current developments, and ponder the future of the field. 

 

No prior knowledge of multigrid methods is assumed.
