High performance computing in science and engineering, Munich 2004 ; Transactions of the 2nd Joint HLRB and KONWIHR Status and Result Workshop, March 2-3, 2004, Technical University of Munich, and Leibniz-Rechenzentrum Munich, Germany

Three of the 38 papers deal with computer science, 11 with computational fluid dynamics, two with bio-sciences, six with chemistry, nine with solid-state physics, one with geophysics, four with fundamental physics and two with astrophysics. At a workshop on high performance computing papers should not only have a high scientific quality of the subject addressed, e.g. CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics), physics, chemistry, but should ecially emphasize the necessity to have access to a high performance computer in order to solve the problem. It should also contain information about the simulation techniques used and about the performance of the computer when using distinc algorithms.
