Intended to serve as a discussion forum centring on possible hardware choices, code speedups that are achievable and choices of programming environment. A number of professionals who already have experience in this area have already been approached and will contribute with short presentations, followed by an open-forum which we hope will attract discussion by analysts who will extract the results from these calculations and technology providers that provide facilities to analyst groups.
