The 10th NIC Symposium gives an overview of the activities of the John von Neumann Institute for Computing (NIC) and of the results obtained in the last two years by research groups supported by the NIC.

NIC - a joint foundation of Forschungszentrum Jülich, Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY) and Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung (GSI) - supports with its members' supercomputer facilities about 130 research groups at universities and national labs working on computer simulations in various fields of science.

Invited lectures cover selected topics in the following fields:

• Astrophysics
• Biology and Biophysics
• Elementary Particle Physics
• Theoretical Condensed Matter
• Materials Science
• Soft Matter Science
• Earth and Environment
• Fluid Mechanics and Engineering
• Computer Science and Numerical Mathematics

The talks are intended to inform a broad audience of scientists and the interested public about the research activities at NIC. The accompanying symposium proceedings cover a range of topics even wider than provided by the talks.
