Promotores: prof. dr. R. A. M. J. Wijers, prof. dr. P. M. A. Sloot Co-Promotores: dr. S. F. Portegies Zwart, dr. O. R. Pols You are all kindly invited to the defense. Valeria Krzhizhanovskaya will defend her PhD thesis "A Virtual Reactor for Simulation of Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition" on June 20, 2008 On June 20, Valeria Krzhizhanovskaya will defend her PhD thesis describing her research on novel computational methods to study very complex processes in detail. Owing to spectectular developments in Grid Computing and in mathematical models, we can now for the first time gain insight in the interaction between plasma, chemical reactions and physical deposition processes. To this end Valeria Krzhizhanovskaya has coupled a large number of computer systems in Russia and in the Netherlands and has found new ways to study these multiphysics processes. This research is of great importance to industry, for instance for the development of efficient solar cells. The research was performed under the guidance of Prof. P.M.A. Sloot at the University of Amsterdam and the St. Peterburg Politechnical State University in Russia 5th International Symposium on Networks in Bioinformatics ICMMES 2008, June 16-20 International Conference for Mesoscopic Methods in Engineering and Science 2008 in Amsterdam.

There will be two lectures, by Charles Taylor and Bastien Chopard (for titles, abstract etc. see here). Taylor, who was a big inspiration for our current work in CrossGrid and Token, will show the latest developments in simulation based medical planning. Chopard will demonstrate an impressive application of the Lattice Boltzmann Method in the field of stent design. PhD Thesis Defence P.F.
