Applications in High-Performance Computing in Engineering VI (Advances in High Performance)

High performance computing has evolved into an extremely powerful tool for solving a wide variety of problems in modeling and simulation. The resolution of increasingly diverse time and length scales is becoming possible with rapid advancement in both hardware and software capabilities, and this, in many cases, is providing the enabling technology for new knowledge.

This book features papers from the Sixth International Conference on Applications of High-Performance Computing in Engineering, the latest in a highly successful series which provides a forum for scientists from many fields and countries to exchange ideas and information. Contributions come from researchers and practitioners in academia, industry and government, and cover a wide range of topics such as fluid flow, structural mechanics, material processing, efficient broadcasting algorithms, and data mining.

Almost 50 papers are included and these are divided under the following headings: Applications in Parallel Computing; Parallel Finite and Boundary Elements; Algorithms for Parallelisation; Applications of Neural Computing; Performance and Benchmarking; Applications in Fluid Flow; Distributed Computer Systems and Networking; Further Applications in Computational Science.
