Konrad Zuse is one of the great pioneers of the computerage. He created thefirst fully automated, programcontrolled, freely programmable computer using binaryfloating-point calculation. It was operational in 1941. Hebuilt his first machines in Berlin during the Second WorldWar, with bombs falling all around, and after the war hebuilt up a company that was taken over by Siemens in 1967.Zuse was an inventor in the traditional style, full ofphantastic ideas, but also gifted with a powerful analyticalmind. Single-handedly, he developed one of the firstprogramming languages, the Plan Calculus, including featurescopied only decades later in other languages. He wrotenumerousbooks and articles and won many honors and awards.This is his autobiography, written in an engagingly livelyand pleasant style, full of anecdotes, reminiscences, andphilosophical asides. It traces his life from his childhoodin East Prussia, through tense wartime experiences and hardtimes building up his business after the war, to a ripe oldage andwell-earned celebrity.

Das Buch Der Computer - Mein Lebenswerk ist die Autobiographie des Computerpioniers Konrad Zuse. Vor dem Hintergrund der zeitgeschichtlichen Ereignisse beschreibt der Autor die Geschichte seiner Erfindung des Computers. Das Buch vermittelt ein eindruckvolles Bild von den Anfängen der technischen Entwicklung eines Gebiets, das wir heute mit dem Begriff Computertechnik und Informationsverarbeitung beschreiben und das eine Schlüsseltechnologie unserer Zeit geworden ist. Das Buch ist lebendig und für den Nicht-Fachmann geschrieben. Erläuterungen für technisch Interessierte und Anmerkungen zum vom Verfasser entwickelten "Plankalkül" finden sich in den "Wissenschaftlichen Anhängen".

On May 21-24, 1997 the Second International Symposium on Algorithms for Macromolecular Modelling was held at the Konrad Zuse Zentrum in Berlin. The event brought together computational scientists in fields like biochemistry, biophysics, physical chemistry, or statistical physics and numerical analysts as well as computer scientists working on the advancement of algorithms, for a total of over 120 participants from 19 countries. In the course of the symposium, the speakers agreed to produce a representative volume that combines survey articles and original papers (all refereed) to give an impression of the present state of the art of Molecular Dynamics.The 29 articles of the book reflect the main topics of the Berlin meeting which were i) Conformational Dynamics, ii) Thermodynamic Modelling, iii) Advanced Time-Stepping Algorithms, iv) Quantum-Classical Simulations and Fast Force Field and v) Fast Force Field Evaluation.
