Advanced Computational Infrastructures for Parallel and Distributed Adaptive Applications; Contents; Preface; ACKNOWLEDGMENTS; Contributors; Biographies; 1. Introduction: Enabling Large-Scale Computational Science -- Motivations, Requirements, and Challenges; Part I Adaptive Applications in Science and Engineering; 2. Adaptive Mesh Refinement MHD Simulations of Tokamak Refueling; 3. Parallel Computing Engines for Subsurface Imaging Technologies; 4. Plane Wave Seismic Data: Parallel and Adaptive Strategies for Velocity Analysis and Imaging.

A unique investigation of the state of the art in design, architectures, and implementations of advanced computational infrastructures and the applications they support. Emerging large-scale adaptive scientific and engineering applications are requiring an increasing amount of computing and storage resources to provide new insights into complex systems. Due to their runtime adaptivity, these applications exhibit complicated behaviors that are highly dynamic, heterogeneous, and unpredictable--and therefore require full-fledged computational infrastructure support for problem solving, runtime man.
