This volume of High Performance Computing in Science and Engineering is fully dedicated to the final report of KONWIHR, the Bavarian Competence Network for Technical and Scientific High Performance Computing. It includes the transactions of the final KONWIHR workshop, that was held at Technische Universität München, October 14-15, 2004, as well as additional reports of KONWIHR research groups. KONWIHR was established by the Bavarian State Government in order to support the broad application of high performance computing in science and technology throughout the country. KONWIHR is a supporting action to the installation of the German supercomputer Hitachi SR 8000 in the Leibniz Computing Center of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences. The report covers projects from basic research in computer science to develop tools for high performance computing as well as applications from biology, chemistry, electrical engineering, geology, mathematics, physics, computational fluid dynamics, materials science and computer science.

Über den Autor / die Autorin
Prof. Dr. Arndt Bode wurde 1987 auf den Lehrstuhl für Rechnertechnik und Rechnerorganisation in der Fakultät für Informatik der TUM berufen. Seine wichtigsten Arbeitsgebiete sind technische Informatik, Rechnerarchitektur, Supercomputer, parallele und verteilte Systeme, Entwicklungswerkzeuge sowie verteilte Anwendungen. Daneben gilt sein besonderes Engagement der fachübergreifenden Kooperation in Forschung und Lehre für Informatikprodukte, der Standardisierung von Grundsoftware für parallele und verteilte Systeme sowie dem Technologietransfer.§Von Bodes hoher wissenschaftlicher Qualifikation zeugen über 200 Fachpublikationen, darunter Bücher über Rechnerarchitektur, Mikroprogrammierung, Mikroprozessoren und Anwendungen. Diese wurde unter anderem honoriert mit dem "Fellowship des Department of Employment, Education and Training", Canberra, Australien, dem "Best University Research Demonstration Award CONPAR 1990", Zürich und dem "Award for Online Visualization, CONPAR 90", ETH Zürich. Bode ist auch Herausgeber verschiedener nationaler und internationaler Buchreihen und wissenschaftlicher Zeitschriften, seit 1999 Hauptherausgeber des Informatik-Spektrum, Springer Verlag. §Bode ist national und international ein sehr gefragter Gutachter und Mitglied in zahlreichen Fachgesellschaften. Seit 1994 gehört er der Kommission für Informatik der Bayerischen Akademie der Wissenschaften an, seit 1999 der Kommission für Rechenanlagen der Deutschen Forschungsgemeinschaft. Ebenso übt er zahlreiche Tätigkeiten als Berater für nationale und internationale Unternehmen aus. §Im Februar 2005 ist Prof. Bode für weitere drei Jahre in seinem Amt als Vizepräsident und CIO der TU München bestätigt worden.
