Our expectations to use more and more realistic mathematical models of complex phenomena grow as computers become bigger and faster. Highly parallel computers (comprising 1000 or more processors) offer attractive potential for gains in performance, but the task of exploiting the parallelism still lies with the applications programmer. The combination of more complex (alternately, more realistic) algorithms and complex architectures make general solutions to the larger problem difficult to reach.
