Open-sourced: OpenCL-based multiphysics simulation software package

Hi all,

I talked to Zeev regarding this package and I would upload
it, if its packaging state would fit to our requirements. But
sorry, I do not have time for the moment to package it from
the zero point.

Surely, it would be a nice package for the scientists and
engineers in Debian archive.

Best regards

Anton
