Subject: LAPACK++ and Cholesky decomposition

We are currently developing some C/C++ programs that include solving
symmetric linear positive definite (SPD) systems. In addition, we
need the Cholesky decomposition of the associated SPD matrices for
further use in some matrix expressions. Speed is quite critical since
we will solve many different fairly large equation systems based on
the same Cholesky decomposition.

We have previously used LAPLACK++ for solving linear equation systems
and thought this would be an appropriate package. However, we have run
into major problems with our installation. Partly we have problems
figuring out which methods are available for Cholesky decomposition from
the somewhat erroneous and lacking documentation. Also, we have problems
compiling some of the code and even linking it because some header files
seem to lack the associated .cc files necessary to make an archive. (Is
this a local problem or a problem with the LAPACK++ package?).
So, is there anybody who have successfully used LAPACK++ for Cholesky
decomposition of SPD matrices and then used the solution in further
matrix operations including solving linear equation systems?
Alternatively, have any of you suggestions to an alternative free
library for use in C++ or C? (Preferably C++).

Sincerely yours

Subject: Two New Books, Using MPI and Using MPI-2

The following is a book which readers of this list might find of
interest. For more information please visit

http://mitpress.mit.edu/promotions/books/GROUP2F99
http://mitpress.mit.edu/promotions/books/GROSPF99

Using MPI
Portable Parallel Programming with the Message Passing Interface
second edition
William Gropp, Ewing Lusk, and Anthony Skjellum

Using MPI-2
Advanced Features of the Message Passing Interface
William Gropp, Ewing Lusk, and Rajeev Thakur

The Message Passing Interface (MPI) specification is widely used for
solving significant scientific and engineering problems on parallel
computers. There exist more than a dozen implementations on computer
platforms ranging from IBM SP-2 supercomputers to clusters of PCs
running Windows NT or Linux ("Beowulf" machines). The initial MPI
Standard document, MPI-1, was recently updated by the MPI Forum. The
new version, MPI-2, contains both significant enhancements to the
existing MPI core and new features.

Using MPI is a completely up-to-date version of the authors' 1994
introduction to the core functions of MPI. It adds material on the new
C++ and Fortran 90 bindings for MPI throughout the book. It contains
greater discussion of datatype extents, the most frequently
misunderstood feature of MPI-1, as well as material on the new
extensions to basic MPI functionality added by the MPI-2 Forum in the
area of MPI datatypes and collective operations.

Using MPI-2 covers the new extensions to basic MPI. These include
parallel I/O, remote memory access operations, and dynamic process
management. The volume also includes material on tuning MPI
applications for high performance on modern MPI implementations.

William Gropp and Ewing Lusk are Senior Computer Scientists in the
Mathematics and Computer Science Division at Argonne National
Laboratory. Anthony Skjellum is Associate Professor of Computer Science
and Director of the High Performance Computing Laboratory at
Mississippi State University. Rajeev Thakur is an Assistant Computer
Scientist in the Mathematics and Computer Science Division at Argonne
National Laboratory.

Subject: Symposium on Continuous and Discontinuous Modelling of Materials

International Symposium on Continuous and Discontinuous Modelling of Cohesive
Frictional Materials in Stuttgart, Germany from 27th to 28th of April.

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to invite interested researchers working in the field of
computational material modelling of geomaterials, experimental investigations of
geomaterials or related fields to participate in the symposium "Continuous and
Discontinuous Modelling of Cohesive Frictional Materials".

This symposium focuses on various aspects of modelling techniques for
cohesive frictional materials and is planned as an informative seminarlike
meeting. Following the preceding workshops of the research group
"Modelling of Cohesive Frictional Materials" this meeting is projected as a
subject-spanning symposium with international audience. Invited
national and international experts in targeted research areas will enlight
current developments and problems in the numerical modelling of
cohesive frictional materials and provide a deeper understanding of the
micro and macro description of geomaterials. Lectures from the members
of the research group "Modelling of Cohesive Frictional Materials" will
give an overview on the research topics of this group. Advances reached
within the first research period of two years will be presented as well as
the cooperation between the various institutes.

We would very much appreciate if you could directly approach potential
participants and inform them about this symposium.

For further information on invited guests and a preliminary list of lectures
of the symposium please visit the CDM2000-homepage at:
