Abstract: This meeting produces another evidence that present parallel computers are (a) real instruments of computational physics, (b) largely in the hands of still-pioneers, (c) efficiently promoted by basic research groups with large-scale computational needs. Progress in parallel computing is carried by two types of such groups, that either follow the build-it-yourself or the early-use strategies. In this contribution, we describe, as an example to the second approach, the Wuppertal university pilot project in applied parallel computing. We report in particular about one of our key applications in theoretical particle physics on the Connection Machine CM-2: a high statistics computer experiment to determine the static quark-antiquark potential from quenched quantum chromodynamics.
