Abstract
The parareal algorithm is a numerical method to integrate evolution problems on parallel computers. The performance of the algorithm is well understood for diffusive problems, and it can have spectacular performance when applied to certain non-linear problems. Its convergence properties are however less favorable for hyperbolic problems. We present and analyze in this paper a variant of the parareal algorithm, recently proposed in the PITA framework for systems of second order ordinary differential equations.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
