The general aim of the demonstration to be represented
at exhibition "CEBIT'98" is the popularization of the
main supercomputer ideas in the sphere of modern science. Using supercomputers
for the solution of different mathematical and physical problems is very
perspective today as they permit to minimize efforts of scientists in getting
necessary data for their researches and give the opportunity to decrease
the solving period from several months up to several weeks (or even hours).
It is planned to introduce a special computer graphical
presentation illustrating the main results of numerical simulation obtained
by the staff of the St. Petersburg Institute for High-Performance Computing
and Data Bases by means of the equipment forming the supercomputer
cluster: HP CONVEX C-3440, C-380, SPP-1600/8 and Parsytec CC/16 and then
visualized by special programming tools.
The demonstration consists of seven
independent parts where each one is devoted to the different problems
of modern science, including gas dynamics, non-stationary gas flows interaction,
non-linear elastic waves generation in solids, modeling of semiconductor
heterogeneous structures, convective clouds development in extreme conditions,
functional organization of regulatory genes and different aspects of artificial
intelligence. The experience represented in the demonstration can help
novices to make their first steps in using supercomputers for the purposes
of numerical simulation.
