Subject: Henryk Wozniakowski obtains honorary doctoral degree
Henryk Wozniakowski obtains a honorary doctoral degree from the University of
Jena. The celebration will be on Friday, June 6, 2008.
Lectures:
Henryk Wozniakowski: Complexity as a new challenge for mathematicians
Joseph F. Traub: A brief history of information-based complexity
Ian Sloan: How high is high dimensional?
Erich Novak: Laudatio
>From the Laudatio: Henryk Wozniakowski has influenced many fields of
mathematics, theoretical computer science, and computational physics.
Together with Joe Traub, he created Information-Based Complexity.
In 1994 Henryk wrote the first papers in the new field of "tractability
of multivariate problems". Since then, hundreds of papers have been written
on this new subject, many of them by Henryk. Now, with the work of Henryk
Wozniakowski, we understand the curse of dimension much better.
Congratulations to Henryk!

Subject: Strange Phenomenon of Cosine Function on Linux x86_64 env
Dear NA digest subscribers,
I am in trouble about the problem on cosine function in IEEE754 double
precision. On Fedora Core 4/8 or CentOS 4/5 x86_64 + gcc 4 env, I ran the
program which included the functions below in 4 different rounding-modes (RN,
RZ, RP, RM) in order to know amount of round-off error.
current_rmode = fegetround(); // get current rounding mode
fesetround(rmode); // change rounding mode
ret = cos(x); // cosine function
fesetround(current_rmode); // restore rounding mode
As a result, very different values of cosine func are obtained like:
cos( 5.04710873550435011e+01) =
RN, RZ: 9.78937668119415738e-01, 9.78937668119415627e-01
RP, RM: 5.55012195441045186e-01, 9.78937668119415627e-01
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ incorrect!
In the RN mode, the cosine function always returns correct values, but often
incorrect and very different values in other 3 modes. If you want to check
this phenomenon on your env, you can download my sample program from
http://na-inet.jp/weblog/archives/test_cos.c. By trying to run the above
"test_cos.c" on 32bit and 64bit Linux environments around me, this phenomenon
could not be found in 32bit env such as Pentium 3/4 and in Mac OS X 10.4 +
Xcode + Core2Duo.
I will appreciate your sending the information about this problem.
Sincerely yours,
Tomonori KOUYA <tkouya@na-net.ornl.gov>

Subject: New book, Gustafsson: High Order Differ. Methods for Time Dependent PDE
New from Springer
Bertil Gustafsson "High Order Difference Methods for Time Dependent PDE"
2008. XVI, 334 p.
Springer Series in Computational Mathematics Vol. 38
ISBN 978-3-540-74992-9
79,95 - Available
The subject of this book is high order finite difference methods for time
dependent PDE. The idea is to give an overview of the basic theory and
construction principles by using model examples. The book also contains a
general presentation of the techniques and results for well-posedness and
stability, with inclusion of the three fundamental methods of analysis both
for PDE in its original and discretized form: the Fourier transform, the
energy method and the Laplace transform. Various types of wave propagation
problems are treated in specific detail since high order methods are
particularly effective for these problems.

Subject: Workshop on Architecture-aware Simulation and Computing, Cyprus, Jun 2008
CALL FOR PAPERS
Workshop on Architecture-aware Simulation and Computing (AASC08)
- as part of the 2008 International Conference on High Performance Computing &
Simulation (HPCS 2008) and in conjunction with the 22nd European Conference on
Modeling and Simulation (ECMS 2008) -
Nicosia, Cyprus
June 3 - 6, 2008
Background:
With multi- and many-core based systems, performance increase on the
microprocessor side will continue according to Moore's Law, at least in the
near future. However, the already limited memory access is expected to get
worse with multiple cores on a chip, and gets more complex because of the
required hierarchies of cache memory. In addition, the increasingly hybrid and
hierarchical design of high-end systems, including accelerator components, is
another obstacle for programming. All mentioned issues will have a major
impact on overall performance in future systems.
This means that compute and data intensive tasks can only benefit from the
hardwares full potential if both processor and architecture features are
taken into account at all stages from the early algorithmic design to the
final implementation.
Paper Submission, Registration, and Publication:
You are invited to submit original and unpublished research works on above and
other topics related to simulation and modeling of multicore and
multiprocessing systems. Please submit a PDF copy of your full manuscript, not
to exceed 7 double-column IEEE formatted pages, and include up to 6 keywords
and an abstract of no more than 350 words. Each paper will receive a minimum
of three reviews. At least one of the authors of each accepted paper will have
to register and attend the HPCS08 conference for presenting the paper at the
session. Accepted papers will be published by ECMS in the conference
proceedings. Papers should be submitted as attachments to:
Michael.Bader@cs.tum.edu.
If accepted, final papers will follow the format that ECMS follows which will
be posted on the web site. If you have any questions about paper submission or

Subject: Research assistants / Ph.D. students on multicore at KIT / Germany
The Universitaet Karlsruhe (TH) and the Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe are
joining forces to form the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and are
integrating their research activities both structurally and strategically.
Within the framework of the German Excellence Initiative several new
research groups are established. The Shared Research Group (SRG)
"New frontiers in High Performance Computing
exploiting Multicore and Coprocessor Technology"
is funded as part of the cooperation between KIT and
the company Hewlett-Packard (HP) and is associated with the Department of
Mathematics and the Steinbuch Centre for Computing. The SRG
addresses innovative research topics dedicated to the profitable utilization
of multicore and coprocessor technologies in high performance computing
and numerical simulation. Emerging technologies like multicore CPUs,
GPUs, FPGAs, the Cell processor and other accelerators raise new
demands on parallel implementation of scientific applications. A primary
challenge relies on the ability to exploit the available computing power for
highly CPU time-consuming applications by means of adapted numerical
methods and optimized parallel implementations.
The SRG consists of a group leader (junior professor) and two research
assistants. The positions for 2 research assistants / Ph.D. students (TV-L
E13) are now to be filled for a period of four years at the earliest possible
date. Ideal candidates have
- very good academic records
- completed master's or equivalent degree in applied mathematics
or computer science
- experience in numerical simulation
- interest in conducting Ph.D. research in an interdisciplinary area at
the interface of numerical mathematics, scientific computing and
computer architecture
- interest in close cooperation with the industrial partner HP
- very good proficiency in English
One of the positions shall focus on utilization of adapted numerical methods
and their parallel implementation. The other position shall address hardware
and performance analysis, parallel programming aspects, software and tools.
Salaries will be according to TV-L E13 of the German civil service
remuneration system. To increase the number of women involved in science and
technology, female applicants are specifically encouraged. Handicapped
applicants will have higher preference in case of equal qualifications.
Applications should comprise a letter of motivation, a CV, undergraduate and
graduate transcripts and any other information that prove a high academic
aptitude. If available please include contact information of references and
test scores (such as TOEFL). Please send your application (preferably by
email using PDF) to Dr. Jan-Philipp Weiss, Universitaet Karlsruhe (TH),
Rechenzentrum, Zirkel 2, 76128 Karlsruhe, Germany, Email:
