Subject: New Book About the SIAM 100 Digit Challenge

Many NA-Netters will recall that two years ago, I
organized an event known as the "SIAM 100-Dollar,
100-Digit Challenge". This attracted a lot of
interest, with contestants from around the world,
and in the end, twenty winning teams with perfect
scores.

Four of the winners have now joined forces to publish
a remarkable book about the contest and its ten
computational problems. The authors are Folkmar
Bornemann, Dirk Laurie, Stan Wagon, and Joerg Waldvogel.
Between them these four have actually solved nine of
the ten problems to an astonishing 10,000 digits of
accuracy each, and this book tells the story of each
problem and the areas of mathematics it connects to
with a depth I would never have imagined possible.
To see what I mean, take a look at
www.siam.org/books/100digitchallenge. The publisher
is SIAM, and I believe copies are being shipped
starting this week. Among many other items of
interest, the book reveals the name of the anonymous
donor who made it possible for all the winning teams
to get prizes. An appendix at the end proposes
another 22 new problems to challenge us.

Subject: Conference in India on Environmental Fliud Mechanics

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ENVIRONMENTAL FLUID MECHANICS (ICEFM '05)
3rd to 5th March 2005
Organized by
Department of Mathematics, Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati, India
in cooperation with Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM)

With increasing threat to the environment due to pollution, saving the
environment has become the responsibility of every person on the earth,
more so of the academicians. Currently a lot of research is going on in
finding ways to save the environment, in particular, from air and water
pollution. In this context, environmental fluid mechanics (EFM) has become
a very practical and useful research area. We, in the Department of
Mathematics at IIT Guwahati, feel that holding an international conference
on EFM in this part of our country will go a long way in keeping ourselves
abreast of the latest developments and future opportunities in this very
important area of science and engineering. In the same vein, the
participation from the industry and academia under the same umbrella will
encourage further development of various areas of environmental fluid
mechanics at both local and global level.
