About

The goal of this project is to establish a modern mathematical and statistical foundation that will enable next-generation, complex, stochastic predictive simulations. Such a foundation is critical to realizing the potential of future computing platforms, including exascale, and will ultimately enable scientists to address a fundamental question, namely "how do the uncertainties ubiquitous in all modeling efforts affect our predictions and understanding of complex phenomena?" Our collaborative approach to uncertainty quantification (UQ) combines novel paradigms in applied mathematics, statistics and computational science into a unified framework, which we call an Environment for Quantifying Uncertainty: Integrated aNd Optimized at the eXtreme-scale (EQUINOX).
