Particular implementations, as extensions of Fortran and C, have been used for code development projects for widely distributed scientific simulation software. Scott also works on both parallel and sequential algorithms for simulation techniques in a broad range of areas including bioinformatics, structural biology, nuclear engineering, structural mechanics, fluid dynamics and computational chemistry. This includes boundary element, finite difference, finite element and spectral techniques for solving partial differential equations.
Current interests focus on the automatic generation of software to support scientific simulation.
