Description:
In recent years standard scientific workstations have become faster and more powerful and they now typically include multiple processors and high resolution displays. At the same time the use of computer simulations and mathematical modeling has become an essential component of research in new research areas such as computational biology, computational medicine and computational finance. The purpose of this workshop is bring to gether developers of numerical software and users in different application areas to explore the challenges and implications that are involved in developing, implementing and distributing effective numerical software that is easy to use and matches the requirements and expectations of the diverse community of potential users.
