One gets such wholesale returns of conjecture out of such a trifling investment of fact.” Mark Twain, Life on the Mississippi The challenges in succeeding with computational science are numerous and deeply affect alldisciplines.NSF’s 2006Blue Ribbon PanelofSimulation-Based Engineering Science (SBES)1 states ‘researchers and educators [agree]: compu- tational and simulation engineering sciences are fundamental to the security and welfare of the United States...We must overcome difficulties inherent in multiscale modeling, the development of next-generation algorithms, and the design...ofdynamic data-drivenapplicationsystems...We mustdeterminebetter ways to integrate data-intensive computing, visualization, and simulation. Im- portantly,wemustoverhauloureducationalsystemtofostertheinterdisciplinary study...Thepayoffsformeetingthesechallengesareprofound.’TheInternational Conference on Computational Science 2009 (ICCS 2009) explored how compu- tational sciences are not only advancing the traditionalhard science disciplines, but also stretching beyond, with applications in the arts, humanities, media andallaspects ofresearch.This interdisciplinaryconferencedrewacademicand industry leaders from a variety of fields, including physics, astronomy, mathe- matics,music,digitalmedia,biologyandengineering.Theconferencealsohosted computer and computational scientists who are designing and building the cy- ber infrastructurenecessaryfor next-generationcomputing.Discussions focused on innovative ways to collaborate and how computational science is changing the future of research. ICCS 2009: ‘Compute. Discover. Innovate.’ was hosted by the Center for Computation and Technology at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge. Talks and presentations at this conference focused on new ap- plicationsforhigh-performancecomputing,includingpetascalealgorithms,tools andapplications,high-speedopticalnetworkssuchastheLouisianaOpticalNet- work Initiative, or LONI, distributed data management and sharing, and new software programs for biomedical, science and humanities research. The confer- ence included tutorials, a main track session with 5 keynote speakers and 60 accepted,peer-reviewedpapers as wellas 13 workshopswith 138acceptedpeer- reviewed papers. Advancing computational science would not be possible with- out engaging students and young scholars.

ICCS is committed to helping students and young researchers enhance their professional develop- ment throughparticipationin ICCS. During this year’sconference two different tutorials were offered to participants:(i) ParallelPerformanceEvaluation Tools for HPC Systems by Allen D. Malony, University of Oregon, Markus Geimer, FZ Ju¨lich, Andreas Knu¨pfer, TU Dresden, and Rick Kufrin, NCSA/University ofIllinois and(ii) DevelopingHPC Applications with the Cactus Frameworkby Erik Schnetter, Frank Loeffler, EloisaBentivegna,CCT-LSU. The generalmain track of ICSS 2009 was organized in about 20 parallel sessions addressing the following topics: – e-Science Applications and Systems – Scheduling – Software Services and Tools – New Hardware and Its Applications – Computer Networks – Simulation of Complex Systems – Image Processing – Optimization Techniques – Numerical Methods Fig.1. Numberof papers in the general track by topic Figure 1 presents the number of papers on different topics. Keynote lectures were delivered by: – Marian Bubak: Environments for collaborative applications: An answer to computational science challenges? Preface VII – Janice Coen: Computational modeling of wildland fire behavior and weather for research and forecasting, – Vittoria Colizza: Computational epidemiology: a new paradigm in the fight against infectious diseases, – Peter Coveney: Grid computing at the petascale, – Mark Jarrell: Massively parallel and multi-scale simulations of strongly correlated electronic systems We would like to thank all keynote speakers for their interesting and inspiring talks and for submitting the abstracts and papers for this proceedings volume.

Numberof accepted papers by country Preface IX The selection of papers for the conference was possible thanks to the hard workofthe ProgramCommitteemembersandabout390reviewers;paperssub- mitted to ICCS 2009 received three reviews each. ICCS is a truly international conference, and papers were accepted from 26 countries. The international dis- tribution ofpapers accepted for the conference is presentedin Fig. 3.The ICCS 2009 participants equally represent all continents.
