The International Conference on Parallel Computing brought together scientists to discuss distributed parallel applications in the computational sciences and to foster cross-disciplinary interactions in the general area of high-performance computing. There was a mix of talks dealing with novel programming and algorithmic aspects of parallel computing as well as state-of-the- art technical advances. An international group of invited speakers was arranged with 17 speakers. The conference provided a concentrated forum to discuss progress on enhancing the number of applications that can take advantage of emerging parallel computing architectures.
