[Bernd Flemisch <bernd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 Dear DOLFWAVE team,

Peter Bastian, Kristin Flornes, Atgeirr Rasmussen, and I are planning to 
organize a minisymposium on

"Reproducible Science and Open-Source Software in the Geosciences"

at the 2011 SIAM Conference on Mathematical & Computational Issues in 
the Geosciences (GS11), which will take place in Long Beach, California, 
USA March 21-24, 2011. More details on the theme and scope can be found 
in the abstract below. Further details are available on the web: 
http://www.siam.org/meetings/gs11/

We cordially invite you to present a talk of 25 minutes with additional 
5 minutes discussion.

Please let us know as soon as possible whether you can accept this 
invitation. If yes, please send a tentative title to Bernd Flemisch 
(bernd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:gxue@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>). 
Alternatively, we would be happy if you could suggest us other persons 
applying the FEniCS framework to geoscience problems.

We are looking forward to seeing you in California.

With best regards
P. Bastian, K. Flornes, A. Rasmussen, and B. Flemisch


Abstract:
The free and open source idea provides a chance for sustainable software 
development in geoscience. It offers a natural way to combine expertise 
from different groups by achieving a flawless integration of individual 
components. Free and open source software is also the only way to 
guarantee reproduction of scientific computations by any interested 
researcher. Increasing efforts are undertaken to develop systems for 
reproducible science, providing a convenient and open way to check and 
not least to improve scientific computations. This minisymposium 
develops an overview of research activities in the fields of 
reproducible science and open source simulators for geoscience applications.
