The unrealized Scientific Challenges: Retraining Scientists for the Information Age

Given by Geoffrey C. Fox at NCSA Alliance EAC Meeting on September 21 99. Foils prepared October 3 99

http://www.npac.syr.edu/users/gcf/compscisc98/ and
http://www.npac.syr.edu/users/gcf/internetics/, "Internetics: Technologies, Applications and Academic Fields" Invited Chapter in Book :Feynman and Computation", edited by A.J.G. Hey, Perseus Books (1999)
We will discuss a broad definition of computational science to be the interdisciplinary area between computer science and all application areas.
We suggest traditionally that simulation has been focus of computational science but that today there is more student interest in information based applications and that these benefit from an interdisciplinary approach similar to simulation areas.
We discuss implications for physics education as an example of new Science Curricula for the Information Age
