Subject: Integrals from Real Scientific Problems
Dear NA-net readers,
We are currently working on round-off error propagation in quadrature
methods. To complete our numerical experiments, we are looking for
integrals arising from real scientific problems and numerically
difficult to compute. Any type of integral would be appreciated
(especially multiple or improper integrals), the analytical value
being known or not.
Many thanks for your help,

Subject: Conferece at Caltech on Hyperbolic Problems
The Ninth International Conference on
"Hyperbolic Problems: Theory, Numerics and Applications"
March 25-29, 2002
Caltech, Pasadena, USA
Website: www.acm.caltech.edu/hyp2002
Email: mailto:hyp2002@acm.caltech.edu
The Ninth International Conference on "Hyperbolic Problems: Theory,
Numerics and Applications" will be held at CalTech on March 25-29, 2002.
The objective of this conference is to bring together researchers,
students and practitioners with interest in the theoretical,
computational and applied aspects of time dependent problems governed by
hyperbolic equations. The conference will provide a forum to exchange
and stimulate new ideas from different disciplines, and to formulate new
challenging problems that will have impact in applications. The
conference will keep the traditional balance of this series, of blending
theory, numerics and applications. In addition to ongoing applications,
Hyp2002 will add new focal points on
(*) Fundamental theory and numerical analysis (*) Multiscale analysis,
modeling and simulations (*) Geophysical applications and free boundary
problems arising from materials science and multi-component fluid
dynamics
The scientific program of Hyp2002 is overseen by an international
scientific committee chaired by T. Hou (CalTech) and E. Tadmor (UCLA).
We have an impressive list of plenary and invited speakers. A partial
list of confirmed plenary speakers include
Alberto Bressan (SISSA)
Pierre Degond (CNRS Toulouse)
Randy LeVeque (University of Washington, Seattle)
Ta-tsien Li (Fudan University)
Tai-Ping Liu (Stanford University/Academia Sinica)
George Papanicolaou (Stanford University)
Benoit Perthame (Paris VI and ENS)
Chi-Wang Shu (Brown University)
Bjorn Sjogreen (KTH, Sweden)
Sijue Wu (University of Maryland)
Further information about the conference can be obtained from the
website: www.acm.caltech.edu/hyp2002. We urge all interested
participants to register and to submit their abstracts online
mailto:hyp2002@acm.caltech.edu at their earliest convenience. The target
date for submission of abstracts which will receive full consideration
is November 15, 2001. The deadline for registration at a reduced rate is
January 15, 2002. A block of hotel rooms nearby Caltech was secured at a
reduced Hyp2002 rate. Detailed hotel information is available at the
conference website www.acm.caltech.edu/hyp2002/logistics.html.
HYP2002 will provide a mutually stimulating and productive environment
for all participants to exchange ideas and to learn about the recent
developments in frontier of hyperbolic problems from theory to
applications to numerics. We especially encourage young scientists to
participate in HYP2002 and to interact with more established senior
researchers. Partial support, primarily for young researchers is
expected to be available pending approval of outside funding.
The conference plan should leave enough time for informal discussions
and exchange of ideas. A special panel discussion will be organized to
have a dialogue between the invited panel members and the participants
regarding the future development of and new research avenues in
hyperbolic PDEs.
Looking forward to seeing you in Pasadena,
Tom Hou Eitan Tadmor

Scientific Computation, or Applied Mathematics are invited to do their
doctoral research in the field of COMPUTATIONAL RELATIVISTIC
LASER-PLASMA PHYSICS. This is a new and dynamically developing
scientific direction launched by a recent breakthrough in laser
technology. Relativistic laser plasma produced in laboratory has a
wide spectrum of applications ranging from ultrabright sources of
short wavelength radiation for medicine and molecular biology, to
high-gradient acceleration of charged particles, laser nuclear
physics, fast ignition in inertial confinement fusion, and
laboratory astrophysics.
This is an excellent opportunity for you to join a research group
leading in three-dimensional Particle-in-Cell simulations of
relativistic laser plasma. You will have an access to state-of-the-art
parallel computers as well as to an on-site parallel beowulf
Intel-cluster. Your primare task is to study new nonlinear physics of
laser-matter interactions in relativistic regime under the highest
available laser intensities. You will be actively involved in a close
cooperation with leading international experimental groups running
lasers of tera- and Petawatt class power. The position is supported by
significant funds for travel and computational equipment.
The candidate must be fluent in one of the programming languages
(C, C++ or Fortran) and have a strong interest in the field of
scientific computing.
The position is starting in January, 2002, or thereafter.
The University of Duesseldorf aims at increasing the proportion
of women in its scientific staff. Therefore women are especially
encouraged to apply.
Equally qualified handicapped people will be preferred.
