I just added the page, but it needs a lot of work. A whole lot of good info is out there at http://www.siam.org/students/resources/report.php,

This should be listed as computational science and engineering, and the other two should point to the joint one. Wcleveland 07:01, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Computational science redirects to Scientific computing. I am not sure what exactly is the distinction between the three except that Computational science and engineering is a current buzzword while Scientific computing is an old buzzword. Perhaps Computational science and engineering focus more on what one can do that is useful to the science while Scientific computing is about how to do it. My suggestion would be to remove the redirect and proceed as suggested by Wcleveland. This article should be merged in Scientific computing and replaced by a redirect.

[edit] I disagree

I don't agree that the article "Computational engineering" should be merged with the article "Computational Science"/"Scientific Computing".

IMHO "Computational Science"/"Scientific Computing" deals with computing for science. "Computational engineering", on the other hand, deals with computing for engineering. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sinisa Kolaric (talk • contribs) 20:10, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

I also disagree. This article should not be merged with the article Computational Science/Scientific Computing. Computational engineering concerns the mathematical modeling of engineering systems. See http://icme.stanford.edu/about/about.php. Timhoooey (talk) 03:23, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] NPOV dispute

What is the NPOV dispute that is referred to on the article page? Timhoooey (talk) 03:25, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
