     173\subsection{Laboratory Data}
     17425 July 2005: Benchmark data from wave tank experiments were deemed suitable for
     175initial validation exercises and we should proceed with these
     176immediately using the existing acquired datasets.  In addition, data
     177from vertical wall run-ups will be relevant.  Andrew's letter to key
     178players regarding other existing laboratory datasets is deemed
     179extremely valuable and should go ahead.
     180
     181This has now completed in the form of the Okushiri island validation
     182
     183\subsection{Historical Data}
     184Andrew McPherson has contacted relevant organisations regarding sources and
     185availability of existing post-tsunami field survey data.  We agreed
     186that a scenario from e.g. Banda Aceh or Thailand (Phuket)
     187demonstrating the detailed effect of bathymetric variations would be
     188an ideal study and could form the basis of a scientific paper. Matt is
     189considering whether this would fit into his research priorities.
     190 
     191\subsection{Other}
     192Validation against analytical solutions is well under way and
     193is considered an integral component of the validation process.
     194The same is true for the Lake Merimbula tidal validation project.
     195Stephen and Chris are looking after these.

     198\section{Potential contacts}
     199
     200\begin{itemize}
     201  \item Lex Nielsen from SMEC in order to explore
     202    how they can get involved
     203  \item Lutz Grosz from ACcESS
     204  \item Tom Baldock UQ
     205  \item Tariq Rahiman (tir14@student.canterbury.ac.nz, tariq@mrd.gov.fj) (Suva scenario)
     206  \item Allen L. Clark PDC (aclark@pdc.org)
     207\end{itemize}     
     208   
     209
     210\section{Potential joint PhD projects (GA and ANU)}
     211Ole to investigate if GA would fund a PhD student: Project could be
     212"Algorithms for augmentation of unstructured grids" or "Algorithms for
     213unification of geodesic systems in unstructured grids" the latter
     214capturing the notion of being able to model the synoptic, deep water
     215wave propagation in latitudes and longitudes with a seemless connection
     216to detailed modelling using UTM projections.
     217A PhD scholarship is worth about \$20K per annum.
     218
     219
     220
     221\section{Long term aim}
     222
     223We agreed that having a detailed, reproducible and validated
     224inundation scenario from the Boxing Day Tsunami running in parallel
     225(and being faster than the sequential code) would be a worthwhile goal.

     95
     96(From ANU meeting 27/7/5)
     97 
     98Remaining loose ends and ideas are
     99\begin{itemize}
     100  \item fluxes in ghostcells should not affect timestep computation.
     101  \item a function for re-assembling model output should be made available
     102  \item scoping of methodologies for automatic domain decomposition
     103  \item implementation of automatic domain decomposition
     104    (using C extensions for maximal sequential performance in order to minimise
     105    performance penalties due to Amdahl's law)
     106  \item in depth testing and tuning of parallel performane. This may require
     107    adding wrappers for non-blocking MPI communication to pypar if needed.   
     108  \item ability to read in precomputed sub-domains. Perhaps using caching.py 
     109
