DESCRIPTION OF THE TOPICS OF THE SYMPOSIUM:
-------------------------------------------
 
This Symposium on Advanced Computation and Information in
Natural and Applied Sciences focusses on architectures and
methods for high end computational and numerical applications.
Up to date computing and information systems (software,
communication, and architectures) are an undispensable tool
for progress in various scientific fields.

We invite scientists and engineers using and implementing
computation and information systems, High Performance Computing,
Coud Computing, and Grid Computing for scientific research,
engineering, education, and future internet applications.

Authors are invited to submit original unpublished results
which are not under review in any other conference or journal,
to the Peer Review for publication and presentation, in the
following, but not limited to, the following topic areas
of this Symposium.
