High Performance Scientific Computing (HPSC) is an interdisciplinary
area that combines many fields such as mathematics, computer science
and scientific and engineering applications. It is a key high-technology
for competitiveness in industrialized countries as well as for speeding
up development in emerging countries.
HPSC develops methods for computer aided simulation and optimization
for systems and processes. In practical applications in industry and
commerce, science and engineering, it helps to save resources, to
avoid pollution, to reduce risks and costs, to improve product quality,
to shorten development times or simply to operate systems better.
High performance in HPSC can mean highly efficient algorithms and
software as well as high computing power of the hardware, e.g. parallel
systems.
