Please note that MATH3512 is run in semester 2 of odd years i.e. 2021, 2023, 2025 etc. This course introduces important algorithms and techniques of scientific computing, focussing on the areas of linear algebra and matrix computations. The course will present both theoretical and practical aspects of the algorithms. The course is highly relevant to students from disciplines such as science, engineering or economics where skills in numerical computations are important. This is an HPC, taught at a level requiring greater conceptual understanding than MATH3511.
Five written assignments involving maths and programming problems (70%; LO 1, 2, 3, 4)
Open-book examination (30%; LO 1, 2, 3, 4)
Four written assignments involving maths and programming problems (40%; LO 1, 2, 3, 4)
Individual project, extending application of a chosen algorithm to a mathematics or programming problem (30%; LO 1, 2, 3, 4)
Open-book examination (30%; LO 1, 2, 3, 4)
Three lectures per week and regular tutorials/computer Labs.
