The Department of Mathematical Sciences and the School of Engineering
and Computing Sciences, Durham University, organise a workshop on
uncertainty quantification and data assimilation in numerical
simulation of physical systems for risk-informed decision making; in
short, simulation for risk-informed decisions, or SIMRIDE. The
workshop will run from Monday 18 March until Thursday 21 March 2013.
Key to solving many large industrial scale problems is assimilation of
data along with real-time simulation of a physical system, combined
with uncertainty quantification to allow risk-informed decisions to be
made. Often these systems are highly non-linear and require vast
computing power, which presents a serious challenge to assimilation of
data in real-time, and to quantify uncertainty bounds resulting from
model uncertainty and measurement error.
A major aim of SIMRIDE is to facilitate the link between industry and
academia. The workshop will consist of talks by people from both
camps, with ample time for discussion in a relaxed environment. The
themes of each day are as follows:
* Monday: Risk & Decision (keynote by Simon Blake, ECS, UK)
* Tuesday: Extreme Events (keynote by David Randell, Shell, UK)
* Wednesday: Simulation (keynote by Michael Goldstein, Maths, Durham)
* Thursday: Energy (keynote by Robert Jeffers, Idaho National Laboratory, US)
A list of currently confirmed speakers and titles of talks is at:

There will be a formal workshop dinner on Tuesday 19 March.
Everyone, including PhD students, is welcome to participate and/or to
present their views.
Registration for the first 25 places on this workshop is free, as
these places are funded by an EPSRC grant. Once these places have been
used up, a fee of around 150 GBP will be charged. Registration covers
coffee & biscuits during breaks, buffet lunch, the workshop dinner and
conference materials. You can register via the following website:
https://www.dur.ac.uk/conference.booking/details/?id=176
The deadline for registration is 18 February 2013.
If you require any further information, then please do not hesitate to
contact one of the organisers.
