Conf 2006 Info
Objectives | Print |

The objective of this third edition of the GiD Conference is to bringing together users and developers of the GiD pre/post processing system in order to exchange ideas and exprerience on the generation of data for computer simulation and the graphic visualisation of numerical results.

The first two conferences were also held in Barcelona on February 2002 and February 2004. The meeting is organised in a conference format including oral presentations and discussion on advances in the development and applications of GiD to different fields in engineering and science and identify future directions for research and practice.

Sessions related to specific areas related to GiD will be complemented by Keynote Lectures on targeted research topics in the field of pre and post processing given by international experts.
