Multiscale Modelling and Simulation, 15th International Workshop

Multiscale Modelling and Simulation (MMS) is a computational approach which relies on multiple models, to be coupled and combined for the purpose of solving a complex scientific problem. Each of these models operates on its own space and time scale, and bridging the scale separation between models in a reliable, robust and accurate manner is one of the main challenges today. The challenges engenders much more than scale bridging alone, as code deployment, error quantification, scientific analysis and performance optimization are key aspects to establishing viable scientific cases for multiscale computing. The aim of the MMS workshop, of which this is the 15th edition, is to encourage and consolidate the progress in this multidisciplinary research field, both in the areas of the scientific applications and the underlying infrastructures that enable these applications. In this preface, we summarize the scope of the workshop and highlight key aspects of this year's submissions.
