The conference brings together computational scientists and research groups from diverse scientific domains, including Climate and Atmospheric Modelling, Solid Earth Dynamics, the Life Sciences, Material Science, Plasma Physics, Astrophysics, and Computer Science/Mathematics. It aims to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and to strengthen HPC knowledge exchange. Confirmed plenary speakers include - Prof. Ali Alavi, Department of Chemistry, University of Cambridge, U.K. - Prof. Omar Ghattas, The Univpersity of Texas at Austin, USA - Prof. Bill Gropp, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, USA - Prof. Roman Hatzky, Max-Planck-Institut fuer Plasmaphysik, Germany - Prof. John Lowenbrug, University of California at Irvine, USA - Prof. Eric Lindahl, SciLifeLab Stockholm, KTH, Sweden - Prof. Petros Koumoutsakos, ETH Zurich, Switzerland - Prof. Pier Luigi Vidale, University of Reading, United Kingdom Particular attention will be given to poster presentations. We hope that this eases interesting informal discussion and helps to initiate new collaborations. Posters may be presented during the entire conference (morning of June 2 to evening of June 3), but a dedicated poster session with buffet-style dinner and drinks will be held on the evening of June 2. Abstracts are required for both contributed talks and posters. Each contributor, either for a contributed talk or a poster must submit a title and an abstract up to 600 words before March 31, 2014 Submission is open already and will close on March 31, 2014 : http://www.pasc14.org/submission/ Early registration is also open and will close on April 30, 2014: http://www.pasc14.org/registration/ --=20 Prof. Dr. Olaf Schenk Advanced Computing Laboratory Institute of Computational Science Universita della Svizzera italiana ** Switzerland Via Giuseppe Buffi 13 ** 6900 Lugano Phone: +41 (0) 79 368 22 81 ** Fax.: +41 (0)58 666 45 36 Email: olaf.schenk@usi.ch ** http://www.ics.inf.usi.ch
