Large bushfires are by far the largest contributor to property losses in Australia. Prescribed fire is an important land management tool for farmers, foresters and park managers among others. There is a need to develop practical and accurate tools for predicting the behaviour and spread of both prescribed and uncontrolled fires. Australian bushfire research and land management would benefit greatly from the application of modern, advanced computational methods. The time is ripe for the huge advances in computer technology and numerical modelling to be applied directly to fire problems, benefiting public safety and the safety of fire-fighting volunteers.

到目前为止，大型火灾是澳大利亚财产损失的最大贡献者。规定的火灾是农民、林业工作者和公园管理者等的重要土地管理工具。有必要开发实用和准确的工具，以预测规定的和不受控制的火灾的行为和蔓延。澳大利亚的森林火灾研究和土地管理将大大受益于现代先进计算方法的应用。计算机技术和数值模拟的巨大进步直接应用于火灾问题，有利于公共安全和消防志愿者的安全，时机已经成熟。
