halfway between Harvard and MIT. We will have invited speakers,
expository and tutorial talks by MathWorks developers and Toolbox
authors, user contributions, minicourses, the MATLAB Lab, and a
party. Further information is available off our home page

http://www.mathworks.com

Or, if you aren't wired to the Web, send me email and we will send
you a conference annoucement.

Subject: Quadrature for Optimization and Search

I would like to get some pointers to the literature on the following
problem area:

Given the function f(x,t), integrate out x to obtain the function I(t).
Suppose interest centers on minimizing I over t, or on finding t to solve
I(t) = 0. In the second problem t and I may be vectors of the same dimension.

An obvious approach to this is to pick a good quadrature rule in x, and
approximate I(t) by \sum w_i f( x_i, t ) and then optimize or solve using
the approximation. Another approach is to use points x_i(t) that depend
on t. Under the former method, the x_i must be good "uniformly in t".
Under the second rule there could be unpleasant numerical artifacts if
x_i is not a smooth function of t.

Where might I find a good discussion of how to solve these problems,
and of the resulting error analysis?

[For random x_i and w_i==1, the problem looks like statistical asymptotics.
It may be possible to modify statistical analysis, but I'd hate to reinvent
a wheel.]

Subject: N-dimensional Rotation Matrices

I'm working with n-dimensional vector spaces that are generated from
N-dimensional (n<<N) distance matrices by embedding (diagonalization involved).
Because of the symmetries in the various examples, one obtains degenerate
subspaces. These subspaces are not optimally oriented with respect to special
rows/columns of the distance matrix due to the nature of the diagonalizer. What
I would like to do is reorient the the subspace so that the projections of the
special points fall on the axes or in coordinate hyper-planes. For example,
with n=4, I want {w1,x1,y1,z2}.R1 -> {w1',0,0,0} (R1 is 4*4). then, once I've
fixed the first point, then I want to fix the second, say {w2,x2,y2,z2}.R2 ->
{w2',x2',0,0} (R2is 4*4). In fact, the second step could be simplified to
{x2,y2,z2}.R2' -> {x2',0,0} (R2' is 3*3).

Can anyone point me in the right direction for an algorithm or cite a
pertainant reference?

Thanks in advance,

Bob

Subject: UMFPACK Version 2.0: General Unsymmetric Sparse Matrix Solver

I would like to announce the release of UMFPACK Version 2.0, the unsymmetric-
pattern multifrontal package.

UMFPACK Version 2.0 is a package for solving systems of sparse linear systems,
Ax=b, where A is sparse and can be unsymmetric. It is written in ANSI Fortran
77. There are options for choosing a good pivot order, factorizing a
subsequent matrix with the same pivot order and nonzero pattern as a
previously factorized matrix, and solving systems of linear equations with
the factors (with A, L, or U, or their transposes). Iterative refinement,
with sparse backward error estimates, can be performed. Both single and
double precision routines are available. UMFPACK Version 2.0 is based on a
combined unifrontal/multifrontal algorithm that enables a general fill-in
reduction ordering to be applied but avoiding some of the data movement of
previous multifrontal approaches. Version 2.0 is up to twice as fast as
Version 1.1, and uses at little as half the memory. For some matrices,
Version 2.0 has about the same performance as Version 1.1. The improvement
obtained depends on the matrix, and how much can be gained from exploiting
unifrontal-style data movement.

UMFPACK Version 2.0 is available via anonymous ftp to
ftp.cis.ufl.edu:pub/umfpack/UMFPACK2.tar.gz, and in NETLIB
(http://www.netlib.org/linalg/umfpack2.tar.gz). Some licensing restrictions
apply. For related technical reports, see http://www.cis.ufl.edu/~davis
(you can also obtain UMFPACK Version 2.0 from my home page).

Subject: Workshop on Numerical Fluid Flow In Spherical Geometry

PRELIMINARY ANNOUNCEMENT

FIFTH WORKSHOP ON NUMERICAL METHODS FOR COMPUTING
FLUID FLOW IN SPHERICAL GEOMETRY
(PDEs on the Sphere)

June 11-14, 1996
Breckenridge, Colorado

BACKGROUND:

As part of the DOE CHAMMP program a workshop on 'Numerical solutions
of fluid flow in spherical geometry' will be held in Breckenridge,
Colorado, June 11-14, 1996. This is the fifth in the series of meetings
which have been hosted on a rotating basis by Argonne National Laboratory,
the National Center for Atmospheric Research, and Oak Ridge National
Laboratory.

PROGRAM:

The primary emphasis of the workshop is:

The development of new methods for and application of new and existing
methods for computing fluid flow in spherical geometry; in particular,
how new methods eliminate shortcomings of current methods and how
they address the problems unique to spherical geometry. Application
to the shallow water equations and to complete baroclinic models
are of interest as well as pure transport for chemistry models.

The workshop will also cover:

1. Topics of interest include monotone advection, geodesic grid systems,
TVD methods, flux correction methods, vector and scalar spectral methods,
alternative discretizations, and Eulerian and semi-Lagrangian methods.
These can be applied to three dimensional baroclinic equations, two
dimensional shallow water equations, or pure transport in spherical
geometry.

2. The presentation of results from current or new methods is encouraged.
The comparison of these methods is facilitated by application to
standard test sets.

3. Performance of current methods of choice and new methods on parallel
computers, including limitations associated with algorithm and computer
design are appropriate. Implementation details for distributed
and shared memory architectures as well as discussion of attendant
difficulties are of interest. Characteristics of parallel computers that
may affect computational algorithms, in particular, future design
aspects could be considered as they might affect algorithm
implementation.

Subject: Report on the Second Workshop on Applied Parallel Computing

Report on the Second Workshop on Applied Parallel Computing, PARA95

The Second International Workshop on Applied Parallel
Computing in Physics, Chemistry and Engineering Science
(PARA95), and the Tutorial on ScaLAPACK and Parallel NAG
Library on IBM SP2 and SGI Power Challenge were held in Lyngby,
Denmark August 21-24, 1995. The Conference was organized and
sponsored by the Danish Computing Centre for Research and
Education (UNI*C) and the Institute of Mathematical Modelling
(IMM) of the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). Support was
also received from the Danish Natural Science Research Council
through a grant for the EPOS project (Efficient Parallel
Algorithms for Optimization and Simulation) and from the IBM
and SGI computing organizations.
The Workshop was preceded by a one-day Tutorial on ScaLAPACK
and the Parallel NAG Library. The ScaLAPACK (Linear Algebra
Package for Parallel Distributed Memory Computers) and the
Parallel NAG (Numerical Algorithms Group) Library were
presented and discussed. During the Tutorial time was allocated
for practical exercises on the IBM SP2 and SGI Power Challenge
computers. More than 60 people attended the Tutorial.
The Workshp attracted more than 90 participants from around
the world. Authors from 17 countries submitted 60 papers,
of which 12 were invited and 48 were contributed. There were
three parallel sessions.
The conference was opened by remarks from Professor Kaj
Madsen (Technical University of Denmark) and Professor Dorte
Olesen (The Danish Computing Centre for Research an Education).

Due to the excellent work of the organizing committee the
Workshop went very smoothly. The informality of the meeting gave
the participants much time to converse with new and old colleagues.
Tuesday afternoon saw the Inauguration of the new supercomputer
IBM SP2, followed by the PARA95 reception. IBM contributed 120
bottles of champagne.
On Wednesday night conference participants met at the "Peter
Liep" restaurant, Dyrehaven, where Professor Knut Conradsen
(Technical University of Denmark) gave a very entertaining
speech after an excellent dinner.
The PARA95 papers, both invited and submitted, will be
published by Springer-Verlag in their Lecture Notes in Computer
Science series.
