Description
Programming environments, as the name suggests, are intended to provide a unified, extensive range of capabilities for a person wishing to solve a problem using a computer. In this particular proceedings volume, the problem considered is a high-level scientific computation. In other words, a scientific problem whose solution usually requires sophisticated computing techniques and a large allocation of computing resources.
