Flows at these scales are 
dominated by surface effects and by interactions with 
immersed particles or 
structures. These effects and interactions frequently are 
expressed on  meso-scopic
length and time scales and can not be represented in a  
macro-scale or continuum description 
in a straightforward manner. The  description by molecular 
dynamics is infeasible for reaching 
sufficient time  and length scales. Meso-scale modeling, 
however, requires experimental and  numerical 
experimental investigations and theoretical and numerical  
modeling.

In the symposium the following subjects are expected to be 
addressed:
-- Multi-scale particle methods for numerical  simulations
-- Liquid-wall interactions and modeling approaches
-- Modeling of immersed nano-scale structures such as 
macromolecules

-- Organized flow behavior at micro- and nano-scales
-- Methods for control of micro- and nano-scale flows
