The computational load is handled mostly by the GPU and programmed with WebGL. Some details of optimising the simulation of large collections of objects with short range interactions are discussed.</font></div><div class="" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;"><font face="HelveticaNeue" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class="" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue; margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 14px;"><font face="HelveticaNeue" class="">We warmly welcome everyone to attend the talk and the Soft Matter Coffee Break after the seminar, held in room 4.51 (4th floor).</font></div><div class="" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue; margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 14px;"><font face="HelveticaNeue" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class="" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue; margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;"><font face="HelveticaNeue" class="">Maria Ekiel-Jeżewska</font></div><div class="" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue; margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;"><font face="HelveticaNeue" class="">Maciej Lisicki</font></div><div class="" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue; margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;"><font face="HelveticaNeue" class="">Piotr Szymczak</font></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><div class=""><br class=""></div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline">
