Description:
High-performance computing has evolved into an extremely powerful tool for a wide
variety of problems in modelling and simulation. The resolution of increasingly diverse
time and length scales is becoming accessible with the rapid advancement in both
hardware and software capabilities, which in many cases, is providing the enabling
technology for new knowledge.
The application of supercomputing to numerical intensive problems brings several new issues that do not appear in standard computing. New algorithms and codes are required in order to exploit effectively the use of these novel computer architectures, as programs suitable for conventional computers are likely to achieve modest improvement of performance when run on high-performance computers.
The field of high-performance computing is continuously changing. Although there are still improvements being made in the hardware, it is evident that the future is in massively parallel computing. Therefore, engineers and scientists need to parallelise their numerical computer codes to be able to take advantage of these changes. Often a more natural mathematical algorithm founded on physical principles can lead to a better parallel computing formulation.
HPC 2002 will discuss papers on any subject listed under the conference topics, including those dedicated to new and robust numerical algorithms for the solution of complex problems.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
The conference will be of interest to scientists, researchers and practitioners in academia, industry and government involved in the application of high performance computing.
