Announcing a Special Session on
Stochastic Computations: From Parallel Random
Number Generators to Monte Carlo Applications
ICCS 2002 Conference on Computational Science
April 21-24, 2002
Amsterdam, The Netherlands
The purpose of this special session is to bring together researchers in Monte Carlo and quasi-Monte Carlo
methods who work on tools, algorithms, software, or applications in a parallel
scientific computing environment. We hope to draw participants who are computer scientists,
mathematicians, numerical analysts, and application specialists to provide a means for presenting
research results, parallel computing experience, and informal updates of research in
progress. We also hope to encourage discussion and
interchange of ideas in the area of parallel and distributed computing for large-scale problems solved
via Monte Carlo methods.
A limited number of contributed talks will be selected for this session. Extended abstracts
of no more than two pages should
be sent to the organizers before November 1, 2001. The contributions can be in
either LaTeX, Postscript or pure ASCII. Notice of acceptance of the extended abstract will
be sent no later than November 5, 2001. After acceptance, full papers, from 6 to 10 pages, formatted
with the LNCS (Lecture Notes in Computer Science) styles from Springer-Verlag should be sent to the
organizers before November 26, 2001. The LNCS style files can be found at
the URL: http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html
Summary, important dates and notes:
| Deadline Date | Action |
| November 1, 2001 | Extended Abstracts |
| November 5, 2001 | Notice of Acceptance Sent Out |
| November 26, 2001 | Full Paper Submission (see above) |
