About this title

Synopsis:

Conference held in Minneapolis, Minnesota, March 1997.

For the first time, the official published version of this proceedings is available only in CD-ROM format. SIAM decided to provide the proceedings in this format to allow authors to expand their presentations, to allow for the use of color, and to provide a format that is searchable and easily portable.

The papers included on this CD-ROM reflect the content of the meeting. The main themes of the conference included combinatorial optimization, data-parallel languages, large-scale parallel applications, message-padding, molecular modeling, parallel I/O, parallel libraries, parallel software tools, parallelizing compilers, particle simulations, problem-solving environments, and sparse matrix computations.

The conference focused on open questions and future trends in computer architecture and software support for parallel computers. It provided a unique forum for researchers interested in scientific computing issues associated with applied mathematics to present and discuss these issues as they relate to parallel computing in science and engineering.
