  comment = {They describe "IMaD", a parallel code that used to support product
  engineering of full-scale integrated circuits. The code itself simulates the
  entire integrated circuit to address three primary apects of product
  engineering: to assure the an IC is manufacturable, to monitor its lifetime
  yeild and reliability, and to support IC test and failure analysis. The
  simulation is computationally, memory and I/O intensive. While the paper
  primarily describes the model and the simulation equations, the talk
  addressed the issue of parallel I/O, where the data for each processor was
  written to a separate disk. Not exactly a novel approach, but it emphasises
  the fact that the I/O requirements are large enough that they used an
  approach other than a standard serial method.}
