ParCFD is the annual international conference dedicated to the discussion of recent developments and applications of parallel computing in the field of CFD and related disciplines.

Since establishment of the conference series, parallel computers have become the dominant form of large-scale computing. Emergence of multi-core and heterogeneous architectures in parallel computers has created new challenges and opportunities for applications research and performance optimization in advanced CFD technology.

ParCFD 2011 has a special topic: the importance of Parallel CFD in Industrial Applications. For that reason, researchers in applied CFD are very welcome to attend. During the conference, specially devoted keynotes and a round table will be held.


As in past years, ParCFD 2011 will include contributed and invited papers, panel discussions, and mini-workshops with specific themes. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Tera- and Peta-Scale Computing
* Fluid-Structure Interaction
* Multi-Scale & Multi-Physics Applications
