1st DEISA Symposium: Perspectives in High Performance Computing

The first DEISA Symposium was held in Paris, France on May 9 - 10, 2005. This Symposium was the first of a series that will take place every year in April - May in different locations in Europe. The purpose is to maintain an annual DEISA event dedicated to the discussion of the scientific and strategic challenges in the area of High Performance Computing, and to assess the impact of the DEISA research infrastructure on computational science in Europe.
