Call for Papers
Workshop on High Performance Numerical Computations with Applications

The workshop will be organized in the 7th International Conference on
High Performance Computing and Networking Europe (HPCN-99) in
Amsterdam, The Netherlands, April 12 - 14, 1999.

Scientific and engineering computing has become a key technology which
will play an important part in determining, or at least shaping, future
research and development activities in many academic and industrial branches.

This workshop is to bring together computer scientists, applied mathematicians
and researchers to present, discuss and exchange novel ideas, new results,
work in progress and advancing state-of-the-art techniques in the area of
parallel and distributed computing for numerical and computational
optimization problems in science and engineering applications.

The main topics will include (but not limited to) the following:

1. development of advanced parallel and distributed numerical, combinatorial
and global optimization methods, with applications in CFD, computational
mechanics, material sciences, and electronic circuits, etc.
2. practical experience of applying parallel and distributed technology to
solve large scale engineering problems. Papers showing the needs of
high performance and demonstrating the impact of parallel and distributed
technology are particularly solicited.

Authors are invited to submit a paper containing new and original
results with respect to these themes to tiaya@ida.liu.se. You may either 
submit a full paper (6 to 10 pages A4) for an oral presentation, or a 
short paper (2 to 3 pages A4) for a poster presentation. Your paper will 
be reviewed  for relevance and technical contents on basis of papers, and after
acceptance, appear in the conference proceedings that will be published
in the series Lecture Notes in Computer Science. The best papers of the
conference will be published in a special issue of Future Generation
Computer Systems (http://www.elsevier.nl/locate/future) or the Journal of
Parallel and Distributed Computing Practice.

     Your paper must be camera ready and formatted according to the rules
of LNCS (see http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/Authors.html). Include
a separate first page which lists the name and mailing address of
each author, which clearly specifies the presenting author, and which
indicates the personal e-mail address of the corresponding
author.

registration fee can be found by responding to the e-mail address:
