Objective
Two conferences are proposed on the subject of problem-solving environments. A problem-solving environment (PSE) is a computational environment that provides and manages, under the direction of a user, all the resources needed to solve a particular class of problems. Research into PSEs is a new and active research area, particularly in the United States. It is foreseen that technologies that will emerge froom this research area will have a strong impact, in terms of competitiveness, on the engineering industry (aerospace, automotive). The conferences proposed here will give European researchers an opportunity to play a leading role in this new and rapidly evolving field. This is important because research efforts currently underway will ultimately lead to further standardisation of software components for high performance computing, building on existing standards such as Java, CORBA, and the MPI message-passing library, and it is essential that European researchers are engaged in this activity. The proposed conferences will help establish a coherent pan-European research community in the field of PSEs, and will provide a forum in which researchers can communicate ideas, co-ordinate research directions, and assess the scope for standardisation.
The focus of the first conference is on problem-solving environments in numerical mathematics, science, and engineering applications, together with some aspects of the required software infrastructure. Problem-solving environments were first developed for those application areas and are expected to have reached a high degree of maturity by the year 2001. For the second meeting, the scope will be extended to include problem-solving environrnents for new and emerging application areas important for the information society, such as environmental sciences, the health sector , bio- informatics, and marketing and finance. At both meetings, the discussion of PSEs for particular applications will be complemented by sessions on related standards and infrastructures.
