Vector and parallel processors in computational science. Proceedings

Abstract

This volume contains papers from most of the invited talks and from several of the contributed talks and poster sessions presented at VAPP II. The contents present an extensive coverage of all important aspects of vector and parallel processors, including hardware, languages, numerical algorithms and applications. The topics covered include descriptions of new machines (both research and commercial machines), languages and software aids, and general discussions of whole classes of machines and their uses. Numerical methods papers include Monte Carlo algorithms, iterative and direct methods for solving large systems, finite elements, optimization, random number generation and mathematical software. The specific applications covered include neutron diffusion calculations, molecular dynamics, weather forecasting, lattice gauge calculations, fluid dynamics, flight simulation, cartography, image processing and cryptography. Most machines and architecture types are being used for these applications. many refs.
