Workshop
"Numerical and asymptotic methods for kinetic equations"
February 23 -25, 2004 at Saarland University, Saarbrücken, Germany. 

Monte-Carlo Simulation
 
 supported by  supported by the DFG

This workshop will be organized in the framework of the IHP-network "Hyperbolic and Kinetic Equations:  Asymptotics, Numerics, Analysis" (www.hyke.org).  Its main emphasis will be on numerical methods and their applications (stochastic particle and deterministic methods, relaxation methods, asymptotically correct methods, e.g.). We are planing to arrange the main talks around the three topics: semiconductor simulations, lattice Boltzmann, and granular media.
