Abstract:

The Conference was comprised of our sessions. The first session was composed of advanced numerical models and programming methods for computer representation of plasmas. The second session, designated computational sciences, was comprised entirely of invited papers which dealt with numerical techniques in fields other than plasma physics. The third session dealt with numerical methods for the solution of plasma models other than particle simulation. The fourth session included the theory of particle simulation as well as detailed optimization techniques.
