Abstract
Whereas many processes are naturally parallel, our perception of processes involved in the dynamics of physical systems, and the design of algorithms in order to model and compute the behaviour of such systems, has been dominated by the paradigm of the sequential flow of operations and data on which the breakthrough of computational science has fundamentally been built, thus enforcing the appearance — and the tremendous success — of the serial von Neumann type computer architecture.
