The fifth NIC-Symposium gave an overview of the activities of the
John von Neumann Institute for Computing (NIC) and of the results
obtained in the last two years by research groups supported by the NIC.
The large recent progress in supercomputing is highlighted by the fact
that the newly installed Blue Gene/P system in Jülich - with a peak
performance of 1 Petaflop/s - currently ranks number four in the TOP500
list. This development opens new dimensions in simulation science
for researchers in Germany and Europe.
NIC - a joint foundation of Forschungszentrum Jülich, Deutsches
Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY) and Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung
(GSI) - supports with its members' supercomputer facilities about 130
research groups at universities and national labs working on computer
simulations in various fields of science.
Fifteen invited lectures covered selected topics in the following fields:
- Astrophysics
- Biophysics
- Chemistry
- Elementary Particle Physics
- Condensed Matter
- Materials Science
- Soft Matter Science
- Environmental Research
- Hydrodynamics and turbulence
- Plasma Physics
- Computer Science
The talks are intended to inform a broad audience of scientists and the
interested public about the research activities at NIC.
The proceedings of the symposium cover projects that have been
supported by the IBM supercomputers JUMP and IBM Blue Gene/P in Jülich
and the APE topical computer at DESY-Zeuthen in an even wider range than
the lectures.
