With support and encouragement from IRIS and CIG, a workshop will be held focusing on Computational Seismology, e.g., intensive forward and inverse seismic computations for structure and source characterization in both basic and applied research across all length scales. This workshop is not just for computational seismologists, i.e., people who write the codes, but also for people who would be interested in using them as end-users. Our aim is to establish a set of short and medium term goals and priorities for Computational Seismology. In particular, we seek to document the status, needs and anticipated directions, and to form a Seismology Working Group that exists within the CIG framework. What software capabilities are needed? Is there a role for web services and on-demand computing in seismology?

Whether you decide to come to the workshop or not, we encourage you to fill out the web survey so that we can get a sense of our community's needs and priorities. Which existing seismology software packages do you use? What software is desired for the future?

Survey now closed.

People interested in participating in this workshop will be able to register at this website. When you register, please indicate whether you would like to have the opportunity to present your views and opinions during the meeting.
