Coding practices for performance: cache–miss minimization
Use of external libraries. Eigenproblems
Polynomial interpolation
Integration of ODE: explicit/implicit methods, Liapunov stability
Numerical integration: Newton–Cotes quadratures, Gaussian quadratures
Numerical statistics: mean, standard deviation, skewness, kurtosis. Evaluation of uncertainty: Monte Carlo method
Systems of non–linear differential equations. Oscillators, chaotic systems, Lorenz attractor
Coding practices for performance: multithreading, message–passing
