Set against the backdrop of emerging high-performance computational resources, such as the UK’s forthcoming first exascale supercomputer to be sited in Edinburgh, the workshop will focus on the development of new mathematical and algorithmic methodologies aiming to make the most of the computational power of future computer architectures in materials simulation. The workshop will stimulate research collaborations between researchers from the UK, EU and USA, and will offer the opportunity for mathematicians to learn more about the new challenges and opportunities these computational platforms will bring.

Topics to be discussed will include novel approaches to computational multi-tasking and sampling; optimisation methodologies such as numerical continuation and deflation; coarse-graining and model reduction; and the rigorous mathematical analysis of such methodologies.

Collective cell migration and pattern formation are entwined phenomena of immense fascination. Development, tissue repair and disease progression all involve coordination between cell movements, growth, and intercellular signalling processes. A better understanding of their interplay across different spatial and temporal scales will help improve diagnosis and treatment of diseases. The aim of this workshop is to draw together state of the art techniques within (i) the biological mechanisms that underpin processes of collective cell migration and pattern formation, (ii) the mathematical and computational models used to study these phenomena, and (iii) the analytical tools that can be used to unlock core properties contained within these models.
