Accomodation of VMS 2008:
The participants of VMS 2008 are accomodated in two hotels in the centre of Saarbrucken:

• Hotel Stadt Hamburg
• Hotel Madeleine

Sponsors of VMS 2008:
The workshop VMS 2008 is partially sponsored by the DFG high priority program Efficient Mathematical Modeling in Fluid Mechanics and Meteorology (MetStröm). The MetStröm program, which started in autumn 2007, is the most important research program in Germany concerning the simulation of multiscale phenomena in flows.
