ICCSA 2003 is subsequent to the International Conference on Computational Science (ICCS) series of events, which were held in San Francisco, USA (2001) and Amsterdam, The Netherlands (2002). Computational Science is increasingly becoming a vital part of many scientific investigations, affecting researchers and practitioners in areas ranging from aerospace and automotive, to chemistry, electronics, geosciences, to mathematics, and physics. Due to the shear size of many challenges in computational science, the use of supercomputing, parallel processing, and sophisticated algorithms, is inevitable. The concentration of this Conference is in the realms of computational science in parallel and distributed environments, encompassing the facilitating theoretical foundations and the applications of such large scale computations. The Conference offers the opportunity to discuss problems and solutions in the area, to identify new issues, and to shape future directions for research, as well as to help industrial users apply techniques of large scale parallel and distributed computations. We invite you to submit a: o full paper of 6 to 10 pages (Letter or A4 paper) for oral presentation, o proposal to organize a technical session. Submitted papers have to be original, containing new results that were not previously published. Full version of accepted papers will appear in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series (LNCS), Springer-Verlag. Conference Themes ----------------- There are five major conference themes planned: o Computational Methods, Algorithms and Applications o Scientific Visualization and Image Processing Thematic Chair: Brian d'Auriol (University of Texas at El Paso, USA) and Andres Iglesias (University de Cantabria, Spain) o Computational Number Theory, Partial Differential Equations and Optimization o Information Systems and Technologies Thematic Chair: Youngsong Mun (Soongsil University, Korea) o Computational Science Education o Open Theme You are invited to submit a paper presenting an original research in one of the following areas: 1.
