DESCRIPTION 
The Wales Institute of Mathematics and Computation has 
kindly provided 
funding to allow the organization of a one day workshop on 
higher 
order methods in computational science and engineering. The 
workshop 
will take place in the Civil and Computational Engineering 
Research 
Centre within the School of Engineering at Swansea 
University on 
Thursday 15th May 2008. It will consist of invited talks 
from key 
experts in the field as well as a small number of 
contributed 
presentations. The workshop aims to promote interaction and 
discussion 
between U.K. industry and academia, although participants 
from outside 
the U.K are also welcome to attend.

TOPICS OF INTEREST 
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: 
* hp Finite elements 
* Higher order discontinuous Galerkin techniques 
* Spectral methods 
* Efficient solvers and preconditioning techniques for 
higher order methods 
* Mesh generation techniques for higher order methods 
* Visualization techniques for higher order methods.

WEB SITE 
A programme for the workshop will be available shortly on 
the workshop
