The application of high performance computing (HPC) and Grid computing is having a major impact on many areas of physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, materials, environmental, and social sciences. These areas of science are rapidly becoming digital and need to deal with increasing amount of data and computing power. Medium to large scale numerical simulations are becoming an integral part for applications ranging from weather prediction to drug and materials design. The goal of this school is to fill this training gap and provide young scientists with the basic skills necessary to employ the right computational infrastructure effectively. On the other hand the advent of Grid technology into the region has opened up new horizons for the scientists of developing countries, with which most of them are unfamiliar. In particular e-science can have an important impact on activities of the scientists in the third worlds as it removes some of the barriers of working in the scientific community of less developed countries.
