Dear Colleagues,
we would like to invite you to attend our
CONFERENCE ON HIGH PERFORMANCE SCIENTIFIC COMPUTING
March 27-31, 2000
Hanoi, Vietnam
CALL FOR PAPERS AND
REGISTRATION INFORMATION
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.
TOPICS
include, but are not limited to...
- mathematical modelling
- numerical simulation
- methods for optimization and control
- parallel architectures
- parallel programming
- symbolic computing
- software development
- applications of Scientific Computing in
environmental and hydrology problems
physics, mechanics and chemistry
transport, logistics and site location
communication networks, production scheduling
energy management, investment strategies
industrial and commercial problems
The conference is organized jointly by

HOW TO CONTRIBUTE
The conference will provide invited lectures (45 minutes including discussion)
and contributed presentations (30 minutes including discussion). Each
contributor must submit a title and an abstract not to exceed one A4-page.
Abstracts should be prepared in LaTeX format. Only in exceptional cases,
MS-Word format can be accepted. Please follow the instructions and use
the macros for LaTeX or MS-Word which can be downloaded from our Web site,
or they will be sent to you by e-mail on request. Submissions must be
transmitted electronically to [log in to unmask] or sent as files
in diskettes to our contact address.
Only abstracts satisfying the above conditions be printed in the
abstracts volume. Some contributions will be selected for publication
in a proceedings volume of Springer-Verlag.
MINISYMPOSIA
A number of minisymposia will be organized, among these are the topics:
- Advanced problems in computational mechanics
- Groundwater contamination
- Parallel computer architecture
- Parallel computing
- Solution methods for ODEs and DAEs
Participants are encouraged to submit
further minisymposia to HPSC topics of their choice.
---------------------------------------------------
Minisymposia should have at least 3 talks. If you have questions, please
contact the organizers.

VISA INFORMATION
To enter Vietnam foreigners need an entry visa which is usually granted
at Vietnamese embassies and consulates abroad. Tourist visas can be
applied directly there. Business travellers should apply for a visa
through the Vietnamese host. In our case, the local organizers of the
conference should apply for a visa approval for their foreign guests
at the Ministery of Public Security of Vietnam. After that the relevant
Vietnamese embassy or consulate will be informed of the approval by fax.
We will notify you of the date of this fax as well as an approval number.
You must then send (or bring in person)
- your passport
- approval number and date of fax
- two (or more?) passport photos
to your Vietnamese embassy or consulate to obtain your visa. In general,
some visa fees are charged (except the owners of Official Passport
or Service Passport coming from such countries having appropriate
contracts with Vietnam).
For this application, the following information must be sent to us at
the e-mail address
[log in to unmask]
- Full name
- Date and place of birth
- Profession
- Passport number
- Date and place of issue and expiry date
- Original nationality
Present nationality
- Date and point of entry to Vietnam
- How long to stay in Vietnam?
- At what Vietnamese embassy or consulate do you want to collect your visa?
Don't forget to do the same for YOUR ACCOMPANYING PERSONs.
