<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This meeting is being organized by the Center for Compressible Multiphase Flow (CCMT) at the University of Florida and will bring together a group of experts in high-order numerical methods, high-performance
computing, and a wide spectrum of application areas in physics and fluid/thermal sciences to discuss new developments and uses of the open-source solvers, Nek5000, NekCEM, and CMT-nek.</span></p>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We expect that there will be several invited speakers at the meeting who made significant contributions to the theory and development of high-order methods, as well as some of the principal user/developers
who have pushed these methods to the limit in important application areas on the world's fastest computers.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The presentations will feature our standard User/Developer Meeting format, with 15-minute talks by each participant along with a handful of more extended presentations.</span></p>
