Scientific
Programming

Overview

Scientific Programming provides a meeting ground for research in and practical experience with software engineering environments, tools, languages, and models of computation aimed specifically at supporting scientific and engineering computing. It brings together developments that are currently found in a wide variety of journals, conference proceedings, and informal society journals. Although scientific programming has traditionally been synonymous with Fortran, a significant percentage of programs have been written in languages such as Ada, C++, Forth, Linda, Occam, and Strand88.

Scientific Programming welcomes papers on language, compiler, and support environment issues for these and other languages used for scientific computing. Readership includes scientific and engineering programmers, and researchers interested in language design, software engineering issues, software tools, environments for scientific computing, and compilers for scientific languages.

Aims and Scope

Scientific Programming is a reporting forum for research and practical experience within software engineering environments, tools, languages and models of computation, aimed specifically at supporting scientific and engineering programming. Papers on these topics are featured in the journal, as well as a special section for in-depth reviews of books, articles and software tools relevant to scientific computing.

International in scope, Scientific Programming brings together areas that, until now, have been thought of as distinct, or more closely related to their parent disciplines -- computer architecture, software engineering, compiler technology, and specific application areas. These disciplines are rapidly converging to form the basis of a new discipline under the broader heading of scientific programming. Articles will be chosen for publication only if they are of general interest to scientific programmers and scientific programming researchers.

Call for Papers

Scientific Programming solicits several types of writings, including: full-length research papers, full-length practical experience papers, full-length tutorial papers, short communications, and retrospective papers.

All writings should be in-depth, addressing key issues underlying current research and development related to programming support for science and engineering. Letters to the editor will not be peer-reviewed; however, we'll attempt to allow relevant authors a chance to respond -- so their ideas can appear in the same issue as the original letter.
