11. Concluding Remarks
It is considered that the simulations are very important scheme in the fabrication of hardware. It is fact that the simulations are supported by computer technology and software technology. An important thing is both of computer and software are made by human beings. In recent years, huge scale models can be simulated due to development of computer and software technology and these synergy effects.
There were five presentations in this session. Three presentations were "Vector super computer technology", "Cluster computer technology", "GPGPU technology" as computer technology. Two presentations were "Frequency domain analysis technology" and “Time domain analysis technology" as electromagnetic analysis technology.
All presenters mentioned about view of bright future in these technology. Therefore, unpredictable huge scale simulation will be realized in ten years by development of computer and software technology and these synergy effects.
