HPCMS: High Performance Computing in Modelling and Simulation
About this session
The development of models that allow computers to simulate the evolution of artificial and natural systems is central to advancing knowledge across scientific and engineering disciplines. In recent decades, growing computational power has greatly expanded the scope of such methodologies, enabling their application in research, industry, and the quantitative study of complex systems. This progress has fostered both the extensive use of numerical methods for solving differential equation systems (e.g., FEM, FDM, PIC) and the exploration of alternative paradigms such as Cellular Automata, Genetic Algorithms, Neural Networks, and Swarm Intelligence. These complementary approaches have proven particularly effective when conventional simulation techniques are constrained by spatial or temporal limitations, opening new possibilities for modelling complex phenomena.
Now in its thirteenth edition at PDP, the HPCMS Special Session aims to serve as a platform for a multidisciplinary community of scholars, researchers, developers, educators, practitioners, and experts from leading universities, institutions, agencies, and companies in Computational Science. Its mission is to foster the exchange of perspectives on trends, challenges, and state-of-the-art advances in computational problems and high-performance computing, with applications spanning engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, geology, medicine, ecology, sociology, traffic control, economics, and beyond.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
HPC in computational science
