SUMMARY:AI and Scientific Computing: Algorithmic Alloys for Forecasting an
 d Optimization of Complex Systems - Petros Koumoutsakos\, Harvard

DESCRIPTION:Computational science and Artificial Intelligence have been dr
 ivers and benefactors of advances in algorithms and hardware\, each in dif
 ferent ways\, and originally with different targets. \nThe intellectual sp
 ace between these two fields is home to exciting opportunities for scienti
 fic discovery and engineering innovation.\nI will discuss algorithmic allo
 ys based on the fusion of data driven and equation driven methodologies fo
 r the prediction and control of complex flows. \nI will also present ideas
  of developing algorithmic alloys for fusing experiments and simulations f
 or understanding and controlling complex systems.\n\nBIO:\nPetros Koumouts
 akos is Herbert S. Winokur\, Jr. Professor of Computing in Science and Eng
 ineering at Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Scie
 nces (SEAS). He is currently on sabbatical as a visiting research scientis
 t at Google Deep Mind\, London\, UK. Petros  studied Naval Architecture (D
 iploma-NTU of Athens\, M.Eng.-U. of Michigan)\, Aeronautics and Applied Ma
 thematics (PhD-Caltech). He has conducted post-doctoral studies at the Cen
 ter for Parallel Computing at Caltech and at the Center for Turbulent Rese
 arch at Stanford University and NASA Ames. He has served as the Chair of C
 omputational Science at ETHZ Zurich (1997-2020). \n\nPetros is elected Fel
 low of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)\, the American 
 Physical Society (APS)\, the Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematics
  (SIAM) and the Collegium Helveticum. He is recipient of the the ACM Gordo
 n Bell prize in Supercomputing and the Advanced Investigator Award by the 
 European Research Council and . He is elected International Member to the 
 US National Academy of Engineering (NAE).\n\nHis research interests are on
  the fundamentals and applications of computing and artificial intelligenc
 e to understand\, predict and optimize fluid flows in engineering\, nanote
 chnology\, and medicine.
