Almost all very-large-scale computations are simulations of natural phenomena or technical systems. In addition, the problems to be solved - such as the "Grand Challenge" problems are often of significant scientific, economic or social importance. Their complexity is such that they can require impractically long computation times even on the fastest available computers. High-performance simulation approaches this problem from two angles, which are the subject of the high-performance simulation track.
