SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS

*********************************************************************
PPAM'2001: FOURTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON PARALLEL PROCESSING
AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS
*********************************************************************

Naleczow, Poland

PURPOSE

PPAM'2001 is dedicated to a broad variety of subject areas within parallel
and distributed processing, including theory and applications. The Conference
is also intended as an open forum in the field of applied mathematics. An
important goal of PPAM'2001 is to foster communication and cooperation between
communities studying problems in this field and communities involved in
parallel/distributed computations. PPAM'2001 will include keynote addresses,
contributed papers, tutorials, and workshops.

TOPICS OF INTEREST

Topics of interest include (but are not limited) to:

* Models of parallel/distributed computation
* Parallel/Distributed architectures
* Parallel/Distributed algorithms
* Parallelization and mapping techniques
* Object-oriented methods in parallel/distributed computing
* Software tools and environments for parallel/distributed processing
* Cluster computing and grids
* Numerical methods in general
* Numerical linear algebra
* Methods of solving differential equations
* Optimization methods in general
* Genetic algorithms
* Mathematical and computer methods in mechanics, material processing, biology
  and medicine, physics, chemistry, business, environmental modeling, etc.

PAPER SUBMISSION and PUBLICATION

Original papers are invited for the conference. Authors should submit
full papers (draft versions) to the conference office before May 15, 2001.
Papers are not to exceed 12 pages. They should be organized in the usual
scientific format including a short abstract, references to previous work
and state of the art in the field, aim of the work, methodology used,
results obtained and references. Authors should submit a PostScript file
to: ppam@k2.pcz.czest.pl .

All submissions must be accompanied by single page abstract containing
title, author's names and affiliations, mail and e-mail addresses, up to
five keywords, and abstract itself. In case of multiple authors, one of
them should be identified as a contact person. Papers will be refereed
by an international committee, and accepted on the basis of their
scientific merit and relevance to the conference topics. Acceptance will
be notified by July 01, 2001. Abstracts of accepted papers will be
available during the conference in form of a brochure.

Only papers presented at PPAM'2001 will be included into the
proceedings published after the conference by Springer-Verlag in the LNCS
series. Full camera-ready versions of accepted papers will be required
by October 31, 2001. The author's guide for preparing them in LaTeX will
be available on the WWW at http://www.k2.pcz.czest.pl/~roman/ppam2001 .
Alternatively, to receive the guide, please mail a message to
ppam@k2.pcz.czest.pl .

SPECIAL SESSIONS

* Complex system simulations
* Parallel/Distributed/Cooperative constraint solving
* Functional differential equations and their applications
* Computational and theoretical methods in hydrodynamics

CONFERENCE VENUE

PPAM'2001 will take place in Naleczów, an unique small town in the center of
Poland, situated on the Lublin Upland, near the route from Warsaw to Lublin.
Naleczow is famous for its setting, old parks, interesting monuments of the
past and unforgettable atmosphere. The beginning of September is one of the
best periods for visiting this region.
