This book presents the state-of-the-art in simulation on supercomputers. Leading researchers present results achieved on systems of the Stuttgart High Performance Computing Center in 2007. The reports cover all fields of computational science and engineering, with emphasis on industrially relevant applications. Presenting results for both vector-based and microprocessor-based systems, the book allows comparison between performance levels and usability of various architectures.
