*Scope*
=======

The Computational Science and Engineering area has earned prominence through 
advances in electronic and integrated technologies beginning in the 1940s. 
Current times are very exciting and the years to come will witness a 
proliferation in the use of advanced computing systems.
 
The scientific and engineering application domains have a key role in shaping 
future research and development activities in academia and industry, especially 
when the solution of large and complex problems must cope with tight timing 
schedules.
 
This Conference is to bring together computer scientists, applied mathematicians, 
engineers in different disciplines and researchers to present, discuss and exchange 
ideas, results and experiences in the area of advanced computing for problems in 
science and engineering applications and inter-disciplinary applications.
 
Among the main topics of interest (but not limited to) are:

- Intelligent, Bioinspired and Autonomic Computing
- Distributed and Parallel Computing
- Distributed Database and Data Mining
- Grid, P2P, Web Services and Internet Computing
- Mobile Computing and Wireless Communications
- HPC Applications
- Scientific and Engineering Computing
- Embedded and Ubiquitous Computing
- Advanced Networking and Applications
- Security, Privacy and Trust 
- Education in Computational Scientific and Engineering
- Applications to the following areas, but not limited to:
     - computational fluid dynamics and mechanics
     - material sciences
     - space, weather, climate systems and global changes
     - computational environment and energy systems
     - computational ocean and earth sciences
     - combustion system simulation
     - computational chemistry
     - computational physics
     - bioinformatics and computational biology
     - medical applications

*About the Conference*
======================

The CSE (International Conference on Computational Science and Engineering) 
conference previously was held mainly as the International Workshop on High 
Performance Scientific and Engineering Computing for tenth editions, mostly 
in conjunction with International Conference on Parallel Processing (ICPP), 
as COATA-98 (Orlando, USA, July, 1998), HPSEC-99 (Fukushima, Japan, September 
1999), HPSEC-00 (Toronto, Canada, August, 2000), HPSEC-01 (Valencia, Spain, 
September, 2001), HPSEC-02 (Vancouver, Canada, August, 2002), HPSEC-03 
(Kaohsing, Taiwan, October, 2003), HPSEC-04 (Montreal, Canada, August, 2004), 
HPCSE-04 with WCC-04 (Toulouse, France, August, 2004), HPSEC-05 (Oslo, Norway, 
June, 2005), and HPSEC-06 (Columbus, USA, August, 2006).
 
After many successful editions, this conference will be organized independently 
starting in 2008, in Sao Paulo, Brazil. This Conference is sponsored by IEEE 
TCSC Technical Committee on Scalable Computing and IEEE Computer Society.

*About Sao Paulo, Brazil*
=========================

Sao Paulo, the 19a richest city of the world, is officially inserted in a larger 
metropolitan region which holds 39 towns in total, and a population of more than 
19 million inhabitants (2005).  It is one of the biggest financial centers of 
Brazil and the world. Its economy is going through a deep transformation. Once 
a city with a strong industrial character, Sao Paulo's economy has become 
increasingly based on the tertiary sector, focusing on services and businesses 
for the country.

Sao Paulo is located on a plateau, part of the vast region known as the Brazilian 
Highlands, with an average elevation of around 800 metres (2,625 ft) above sea 
level - though at a distance of only about 70 kilometers (43 mi) from the Atlantic 
Ocean. This distance is covered by two highways, the Anchieta and the Imigrantes, 
that roll down the range, leading to the portuary city of Santos and the beach 
resort of Guaruja. Rolling terrain prevails within the urbanized areas of Sao Paulo 
but in the North of the city - where the Serra da Cantareira Range boasts higher 
elevations and a sizable remnant of the Atlantic Rain Forest.
