Description:
The second International Workshop on Scientific Computing and Applications will continue the tradition of the highly successful
workshop held at the City University of Honk Kong in December 1998. The aim is to bring together mathematicians, scientists
and engineers working in the field of scientific computing and its applications to solve scientific and industrially oriented
problems and to provide a forum for the participants to meet and exchange ideas of common interest in an informal
atmosphere. The goal of the workshop will be twofold. On one hand it will focus on the fundamental methods and algorithms
for solving PDE's and linear systems of equations. On the other hand, it will try to attract the attention of the industrial
community to present and discuss the applications of scientific computing in practical problems. The theoretical topics of
interest are (but not limited to): Finite Element, Finite Volume Element and Finite Volume Methods for partial differential
equations, splitting techniques and stabilized methods, iterative solvers and preconditioning techniques for large scale systems,
methods for systems with a special structure, parallel algorithms and performance analysis. The applications will be focussed on
numerical simulations in the oil and chemical industries, aerodynamics and environmental studies.
