Task area 2: Scientific Computing
Mission
Scientific computing is a cross-disciplinary topic intersecting applied mathematics and computational sciences and engineering (CSE), as well as other scientific areas involving numerical computations, like digital humanities or computational medicine. The principal data types involved are fixed-precision real numbers, which are prone to round-off errors during computation. Beyond the data types found in engineering, such as input/output data of numerical software, in computational mathematics, and specifically in scientific computing, algorithms themselves, as well as their implementations, procedural data, and metadata descriptions, are considered research data.
TA2 will focus on establishing knowledge graphs of numerical algorithms and on building open interfaces for their seamless interconnection in scientific computations. A benchmark framework will employ both to asses performance on a collection of reference data sets from a corresponding area of application while following standardized workflows identified in collaboration with TA4 and other consortia.

Model Order Reduction Benchmark (MORB) and its Ontology (MORBO)
MORB is a demonstrator of the benchmark framework outlined in the MaRDI proposal, and MORBO comprises and ontology and knowledge graph of all the benchmark problem data detailed in the MORWiki. For up-to-date information on MORB and MORBO, visit the corresponding page in the MORWiki.
