Van Camp "], "item_description" : "The International Workshops on The Use of Supercomputers in Theoretical Science have become a tradition at the Univer- sity of Antwerp, Belgium. The first one took place in 1984. This volume combines the proceedings of the second work- shop (December 12, 1985), of the third (June 16, 1987) and of the fourth (June 9, 1988). The principal aim of the International Workshops is to present the state-of-the-art in scientific high speed computa- tion. Indeed, during the past ten years computational science has become a third methodology with merits equal to the theo- retical and experimental sciences. Regretfully, access to supercomputers remains limited for academic researchers. None- theless, supercomputers have become a major tool for scientists in a wide variety of scientific fields, and they lead to a realistic solution of problems that could not be solved a decade ago. It is a pleasure to thank the Belgian National Science Foundation (NFWO-FNRS) for the sponsoring of all the workshops. These workshops are organized in the framework of the Third Cy- cle Vectorization, Parallel Processing and Supercomputers, which is also funded by the NFWO-FNRS. The other sponsor I want to thank is the University of Antwerp, where the workshops took place. The University of Antwerp (UIA), together with the NFWO-FNRS, are also the main sponsors of the ALPHA-project, which gives the scientists of Belgium the opportunity to obtain an easy supercomputer connection.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers2.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/1/46/128/098/1461280982_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "54.99", "online_price" : "54.99", "our_price" : "54.99", "club_price" : "54.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
