Description
The international conference on parallel computing, ParCo 93, aimed at giving an overview of the state-of-the-art of the development, application and future trends in parallel computing. The emphasis was on applications of all types of parallel computers. Topics covered were: applications: all aspects of the application of parallel computers, including business, industrial, scientific and engineering applications; algorithms: algorithms for the solution of numerical and nonnumerical problems, for graphics, image processing and visualization; software: software engineering, programming paradigms, languages and environments; architecture: taxonomy, models and architectural trends of parallel processing, general architecture concepts, simulation, enabling technologies; and performance: performance prediction, benchmarking, measurement and analysis.
