Preface
This collection is a tribute to the intellectual leadership and legacy of Prof. Ahmed H. Sameh. His significant contributions to the field of Parallel Computing, over his long and distinguished career, have had a profound influence on high performance computing algorithms, applications, and systems. His defining contributions to the field of Computational Science and Engineering, and its associated educational program, resulted in a generation of highly trained researchers and practitioners. His high moral character and fortitude serve as exemplars for many in the community and beyond. Prof. Sameh did his graduate studies in Civil Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). Upon completion of his Ph.D. in 1966, he was recruited by Daniel L. Slotnick, Professor
