Abstract:
Problems in computational science often require interdisciplinary collaboration. Differences in the vocabulary, skills, and expectations of different fields can make these collaboration efforts extremely challenging. In this talk, I will discuss strategies for working on interdisciplinary teams that can contribute to the success (or failure) of a project. In particular, I will discuss some common pitfalls that I have seen mathematicians fall into when working with engineers and domain scientists.
