Description
Numerically intensive computing, such as large-scale simulations for
scientific and engineering applications, requires sophisticated usage of
highly parallel computers. The increase of availability, scalability and
efficiency of PC clusters has led to increased interest in clusters and
also in possible application in industry, business, and management. The
recent development of middleware tools makes it possible to use
computational or data grids to solve the largest classes of problems
with requirements for highly heterogeneous computer resources.
This topic aims at the development, implementation and lessons learned
from the development and using of real industrial, engineering,
scientific, and commercial applications on parallel/distributed
computing systems including computational and data grids with special
interest given to multidisciplinary applications.
Papers describing the experience of porting industrial codes as well as
the presentation of new applications developed for modern computational
parallel/distributed and environments are very welcome. Interest will be
focused on performance issues.
Focus
* existing traditional industrial applications in computational
fluid dynamics, computational structural mechanics/dynamics,
computational chemistry and biotechnology, environmental quality
modelling, computational drug design, computational electromagnetic
modelling,
* new applications such as natural phenomena modelling, virtual
reality, multimedia support, data compression, geographical information
systems, data mining, data-intensive computing, cognitive recognition
and others,
* next generation software applications for business, engineering
and management,
* methodology for the development and implementation of large-scale
grid-enabled applications for simulation and visualisation, with special
interest on the applications that require real time response and
interaction with the user. Possible examples cover pre-treatment
planning in surgical procedures, flood prevention and protection,
weather forecast and air pollution modelling, applications for physics
analysis.

MISSION STATEMENT EURO-PAR
Euro-Par is the annual series of international conferences dedicated to
the promotion and advancement of all aspects of parallel and distributed
computing. Euro-Par 2003 will represent 19 topics in the categories of
hardware, software, algorithms and applications. The conference normally
attracts more than 300 participants coming from universities, research
centres and industry.
