an engineer’s workbench for scientific computing, fluid mechanics and mathematical physics
The Supercomputer Education and Research Centre (SERC) at Indian Institute of Science (IISc) is a large computing facility available to the students of the Institute. But many students face the problem of not knowing where to start and how to go about things to perform computations there. Also I found that the SERC website is not … Read more Introduction to computing @ SERC, IISc
For a long time, I had this idea that parallel computing is a difficult task and kept away from it. Also my computations were not that demanding in those days. Recently when I had to solve a large system of ordinary differential equations numerically, I was forced to learn how to do this in parallel. … Read more First steps in Parallel Computing : Using OpenMP in Fortran
How great would it be if we can have a plotting option directly in Fortran programs? I was having trouble finding a proper way to do this. Then I came across the wonderful gnuplot software (free and open source !!). It is a command line plotting utility that can produce publication-quality plots. So what has it got … Read more gnuplot in Fortran
