UM-Bridge Workshop 2023
UM-Bridge is a language-agnostic interface linking Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) packages and numerical model software. It allows
- Speeding up UQ projects from prototype to HPC
- Making UQ and model software available to a wide audience
- Reproducible, community-driven UQ benchmarking
For more information, see UM-Bridge documentation.
This workshop has the following goals:
- Get users familiar with UM-Bridge
- Initiate collaborations between UQ and model experts
- Advance the UQ software ecosystem
Organizers
- Anne Reinarz anne.k.reinarz@durham.ac.uk
- Linus Seelinger mail@linusseelinger.de
