Journal of Computational Science

计算科学是一个快速发展的多学科交叉领域，它利用先进的计算和数据分析来理解和解决复杂的问题。它已经达到了一个预测能力的水平，现在它与传统的实验和理论支柱相辅相成。探测器、在线传感器网络和高分辨率成像技术等实验技术的最新进展为物理和生物过程的许多细节打开了新的窗口。由此产生的数据爆炸允许进行详细的数据驱动建模和模拟。这门科学新学科结合了计算思维、现代计算方法、装置和辅助技术，以解决远远超出传统数值方法范围的问题。计算科学通常将三个不同的元素结合在一起：?建模、算法和模拟（如数值和非数值、离散和连续）；?为解决科学（如生物、物理和社会）、工程、医学和人文问题而开发的软件；?开发和优化高级系统硬件、软件、网络和数据管理组件（如问题解决环境）的计算机和信息科学。《计算科学杂志》的目标是成为一个国际平台，在所有科学学科的模拟科学中交流新的研究成果。它发表了先进的创新性跨学科研究，解决了复杂的多尺度、多领域的科学和工程问题，集成了复杂的数值方法、计算、数据、网络和新型设备。该杂志欢迎在计算科学领域的原始、未发表的高质量贡献，涉及上述一个或多个要素。

Computational Science is a rapidly growing multi- and interdisciplinary field that uses advanced computing and data analysis to understand and solve complex problems. It has reached a level of predictive capability that now firmly complements the traditional pillars of experimentation and theory.The recent advances in experimental techniques such as detectors, on-line sensor networks and high-resolution imaging techniques, have opened up new windows into physical and biological processes at many levels of detail. The resulting data explosion allows for detailed data driven modeling and simulation.This new discipline in science combines computational thinking, modern computational methods, devices and collateral technologies to address problems far beyond the scope of traditional numerical methods.Computational science typically unifies three distinct elements:? Modeling, Algorithms and Simulations (e.g. numerical and non-numerical, discrete and continuous);? Software developed to solve science (e.g., biological, physical, and social), engineering, medicine, and humanities problems; ? Computer and information science that develops and optimizes the advanced system hardware, software, networking, and data management components (e.g. problem solving environments).The Journal of Computational Science aims to be an international platform to exchange novel research results in simulation based science across all scientific disciplines. It publishes advanced innovative, interdisciplinary research where complex multi-scale, multi-domain problems in science and engineering are solved, integrating sophisticated numerical methods, computation, data, networks, and novel devices.The journal welcomes original, unpublished high quality contributions in the field of computational science at large, addressing one or more of the aforementioned elements.
