Welcome to 2011 IEEE International Workshop on OpenSource Software for Scientific Computation!

2011 IEEE International Workshop on Open-source Software for Scientific Computation will be held in Oct 12-14, 2011, in Beijing, China.

Background: Over the past decade, Open-source Software for Scientific Computation (OSSC) has entered a fast growing stage for both industrial and educational purposes. In apart from a variety of the general-purpose platforms on scientific computing software, more and more open-source toolboxes or toolkits are available on the web for the specific scientific computations.
    The aim of OSSC-2011 is to provide an international forum of exchanging the knowledge of using open-source software for scientific computation within the communities from education, academics, to industries. We expect contribution papers focusing on the development and applications of open-source software for scientific computation.

Keywords :
 Open-source software, scientific computation, toolbox/toolkit for research/education, mathematical modeling, numerical methods and simulation, computational science and engineering, education and training, innovation and issues, cloud computing, embedded software.
Please note that all the papers must describe tools that are publicly available under a free software or open source license because the workshop theme is OSSC.
Note: All accepted papers of OSSC 2009 had been published by IEEE Press, which were cited by EI.

Official Language:
 The official language will be English.

The workshop will be held at University of Science and Technology Beijing (USTB), in Beijing, the capital of China.Beijing is one of the world's truly imposing cities. With a 3,000 years History and 11 million people. Beijing has become one of the most significant cities of the world not only because of its splendid historical heritages such as The Great Wall, The Forbidden City, Summer Palace and Temple of Heaven, but also for its extravagant building projects of Olympic Games 2008, such as the "Nest", the world eye-catcher stadium and "Water Cube", the largest natatorium of the world so far, which has made Beijing as the world focus of 21 Century by its diversified culture.
