This school combines high-level courses on theoretical aspects of finite elements, with more practical implementation issues via an open source C++ library . We propose three different activities:

1. The three main courses (ca 5h each) given by

Ricardo Nochetto, University of Maryland, USA
Adaptive Finite Element Methods: Convergence and Optimality

Paul Houston, University of Nottingham, UK
Discontinuous Galerkin Finite Element Methods on Polytopic Meshes

Ralf Hiptmair, ETH Zürich, Suisse
Boundary Element Methods: Design, Analysis, and Implementation

2. An initiation to the finite element library XLiFE++ by Eric Lunéville, POEMS team, ENSTA ParisTech, followed by several practical sessions on computers.

3. A few mini-courses about different related questions (eigenvalues, integral equations, fast methods, singularities) given by members of the organization board.
