About this title

Synopsis

High Performance Scienti?c Computing is an interdisciplinary area that combines many ?elds such as mathematics, computer science and scienti?c and engineering applications. It is a key high-technology for competitiveness in industrialized countries as well as for speeding up development in emerging countries. High performance scienti?c computing develops methods for c- puteraidedsimulationandoptimizationofsystemsandprocesses.Inpractical applications in industry and commerce, science and engineering, it helps to save resources, to avoid pollution, to reduce risks and costs, to improve pr- uctquality, toshortendevelopmenttimesorsimplytooperatesystemsbetter. Di?erent aspects of scienti?c computing have been the topics of the Third International Conference on High Performance Scienti?c Computing held at the Hanoi Institute of Mathematics, Vietnamese Academy of Science and Technology (VAST), March 6-10, 2006. The conference has been organized by the Hanoi Institute of Mathematics, Ho Chi Minh City University of Te- nology, Interdisciplinary Center for Scienti?c Computing (IWR), Heidelberg, and its International PhD Program "Complex Processes: Modeling, Simu- tion and Optimization". The conference had about 200 participants from countries all over the world.Thescienti?cprogramconsistedofmorethan130talks,10ofthemwere invited plenary talks given by John Ball (Oxford), Vincenzo Capasso (Milan), PaoloCarloni(Trieste), SebastianEngell(Dortmund), DonaldGoldfarb(New York), Wolfgang Hackbusch (Leipzig), Satoru Iwata (Tokyo), Hans Petter Langtangen (Oslo), Tao Tang (Hong Kong) and Philippe Toint (Namur).

From the Back Cover

This proceedings volume contains a selection of papers presented at the Third International Conference on High Performance Scientific Computing held at the Hanoi Institute of Mathematics, Vietnamese Academy of Science and Technology (VAST), March 6-10, 2006. The conference has been organized by the Hanoi Institute of Mathematics, Interdisciplinary Center for Scientific Computing (IWR), Heidelberg, and its International PhD Program ``Complex Processes: Modeling, Simulation and Optimization'', and Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology. The contributions cover the broad interdisciplinary spectrum of scientific computing and present recent advances in theory, development of methods, and applications in practice. Subjects covered are mathematical modelling, numerical simulation, methods for optimization and control, parallel computing, software development, applications of scientific computing in physics, chemistry, biology and mechanics, environmental and hydrology problems, transport, logistics and site location, communication networks, production scheduling, industrial and commercial problems.
