Subject: John Mason (1941-2016)


It is with great sadness that I report the death of John Mason,
Emeritus Professor at the University of Huddersfield and formerly
Professor at Shrivenham. Over recent years, he has been increasingly
afflicted by Parkinson's disease and was finally unable to cope with
an infection.
John had a distinguished career working in approximation theory,
particularly using Chebyshev polynomials, admirably collected in his
book with David Handscomb, published in 2002. He published over 100
papers, 9 other books, and supervised many students.
John's career began at the University of Maryland (1965-1967) and
the University of Toronto (1967-1972). Believing in living life to the
full, a part-time activity was writing and performing in satirical
revues. This was very successful and he decided in 1972 that he wanted
to return to England and switch to the stage as his principal
activity. For 18 months, he wrote for Week Ending on BBC Radio 4. He
mounted a review at the 1976 Edinburgh Festival Fringe that among
others featured Douglas Adams (later of Hitch-hiker's Guide to the
Galaxy) and John Lloyd (later of Blackadder and Spitting Image).
Most of John's career was at Shrivenham where he was promoted to
Professor soon after the merger with Cranfield University. He was a
very skilful subject leader, identifying opportunities to expand the
range of mathematical and computational activities and fostering
graduate students. He moved to the University of Huddersfield in
1994. There, too, he was very successful in building up the
postgraduate programs.
John may be remembered particularly for his brilliant after-dinner
speeches. He applied all his revue-writing skills to the topic in
hand.
John is survived by his wife Moya, who has devotedly looked after
him as his illness progressed, and his son Chad, who has inherited his
father's taste for the stage.

Subject: Call for HPC-Cloud-based Application Experiments


On the 21st of September 2016 the Fortissimo-2 consortium announced
the launch of its Second Open Call for proposals. The Fortissimo-2
project (EU Horizon 2020 contract 680481) is funding a set of
application experiments (sub-projects) to extend and demonstrate the
business potential of an ecosystem for HPC-Cloud services,
specifically for applications involving the simulation of coupled
physical processes or high-performance data analytics for engineering
or manufacturing.

Experiments are at the core of Fortissimo-2 and its forerunner project
Fortissimo. Additional application experiments are sought to
complement the current set of nearly 80 experiments in both
projects. These application experiments should be driven by
requirements from the end-users (SMEs or mid-caps who are first-time
HPC users) and bring together all actors in the value chain, from
cycle providers to domain experts, leading to new and improved design
processes, products or services.

Up to 175000 EUR funding is available for each experiment selected.
The call will close on December 7th, 2016. Detailed information on
the call and the Fortissimo projects is given at
http://www.fortissimo-project.eu/calls

Subject: New SUNDIALS Release, v 2.7.0


The SUNDIALS Team announces a new release, version 2.7.0, of the
SUNDIALS suite of ODE, DAE and nonlinear integrator/solver software
with sensitivity analysis. To access the code and further information,
please go to: http://computation.llnl.gov/projects/sundials

Summary of major changes in SUNDIALS v.2.7.0:
- Two new NVECTOR modules added: for Hypre ParVector and PETSC. These
can be used by users wishing to invoke a hypre or PETSc linear
solver. Later SUNDIALS releases will include interfaces for
accessing solvers from these libraries.
- In vector API, added new required function, N_VGetVectorID.
- Upgrades to sparse solver interfaces; now support CSR matrix type
with KLU solver.
- In all packages, fixed memory leak in banded preconditioner
interface.
- Additional example programs added throughout.
- Numerous bug fixes throughout.
- In IDA and IDAS: added optional input function IDASetMaxBacksIC to
limit number of linesearch backtrack operations in IDACalcIC. User
guides amended accordingly.
- In ARKode:
-- implicit predictor algorithms were updated: methods 2 and 3 were
improved, a new predictor approach was added, and the default
choice was modified.
-- revised handling of integer codes for specifying built-in Butcher
tables
-- maximum number of Butcher table stages was increased from 8 to 15
to accommodate very high order methods, and an 8th-order adaptive
ERK method was added.

Subject: StochSS Version 1.8 Release


StochSS: Stochastic Simulation Service, is an integrated development
environment for modeling and simulation of discrete stochastic
biochemical systems. An easy to use GUI enables researchers to
quickly develop and simulate biological models on a desktop or laptop,
which can then be expanded or combined to incorporate increasing
levels of complexity. As the demand for computational power
increases, StochSS is able to seamlessly scale up by deploying cloud
computing resources. The software currently supports simulation of
ODE and well-mixed discrete stochastic models, parameter estimation of
discrete stochastic models, and simulation of spatial stochastic
models.

New capabilities of Version 1.8 include:
- Parameter Sweep tool facilitates 1D/2D parameter sweeps for all
models
- Integration of Jupyter Notebooks on job result pages for
post-processing analysis
- Status page updates for filtering and automatic forwarding of
running->finished jobs

For more details and instructions on how to obtain the code, visit us
