THE DARTMOUTH INSTITUTE FOR ADVANCED GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARALLEL COMPUTATION

JULY 5-7 1994: SYMPOSIUM ON PARALLEL COMPUTING AND PROBLEM SOLVING
ENVIRONMENTS: Providing Massively Parallel Computing to Problem
Solvers

The DAGS'94 symposium focuses on providing massively parallel
computing to problem solving environments. A Problem Solving
Environment (PSE) is a computer system that provides all necessary
computational facilities to solve a specified class of problems.
These facilities are specialized for the domain of the specified class
of problems and can be used without specialized knowledge of the
underlying computer hardware or software. Important characteristics
for PSEs are: solving power, problem orientation, state-of-the-art
solution methods, automatic/semi-automatic selection of solution
methods, facilities for easy incorporation of novel solution methods,
computing facilities (such as interactive color graphics, networks of
specialized services, and powerful processors), monitoring the problem
solving task, rapid prototyping support, and management of the
computing resources for the user.

SYMPOSIUM TOPICS:
Papers representing original results will be accepted. Topics that
will be considered include

	Symbolic Computations in Parallel
	Network access for parallel I/O and databases
	Algorithms and Computational Models for Parallel and Distributed Computing
	Programming Models for Parallel and Distributed computing
	New results in applications/tools/transformations for PSEs:
 		scientific visualization, 3D modeling, computational fluid
		dynamics, weather prediction, digital libraries,
		aerodynamics, market anaylsis, CAD/CAM, climate change,
		transaction processing
	Tools for application development on massively parallel systems
	How parallel complexity and approximation relates to PSEs
	Numerical stability and parallel performance
	Lower bounds on Parallel Complexity
	Models vs. Real Parallel Machines

	Please submit:
		(a) an electronic copy of an extended abstract (up to 12
			pages) to djohnson@cs.dartmouth.edu
		(b) 5 hard copies of the extended abstract to the following
