The Symposium dealt with Design Issues and more specifically Aerodynamic Design and Optimization of Flight Vehicles
in a Concurrent Multi-Disciplinary Environment. Thirty two papers and a Keynote address were presented with the objective to
survey the current and future scene given the trend towards a more concurrent and multi-disciplinary approach to aerospace
vehicle engineering. There were six sessions covering the following topics: Lessons Learnt/Requirements for the Future Regard
to the Role of Aerodynamicists in a Concurrent Multi-Disciplinary Design Process; The Role of Aerodynamics in Concept Phase
of a Project Design; MDO and the Aerodynamics Design Process; Methodologies/Tools for Aerodynamic Optimisation; Application
of Methodologies/Tools for Aerodynamic Optimisation; Techniques for Rapid Database Generation.

The purpose of the CAS workshop is to bring together NASA’s scientists and engineers and their counterparts in industry,
other government agencies, and academia working in the Computational Aerosciences and related fields. This workshop is part
of the technology transfer plan of the NASA High Performance Computing and Communications (HPCC) Program. Specific
objectives of the CAS workshop are to: (1) communicate the goals and objectives of HPCC and CAS, (2) promote and disseminate
CAS technology within the appropriate technical communities, including NASA, industry, academia, and other government labs,
(3) help promote synergy among CAS and other HPCC scientists, and (4) permit feedback from peer researchers on issues facing
High Performance Computing in general and the CAS project in particular. This year we had a number of exciting presentations
in the traditional aeronautics, aerospace sciences, and high-end computing areas and in the less familiar (to many of us affiliated
with CAS) earth science, space science, and revolutionary computing areas. Presentations of more than 40 high quality papers
