Subject: Code Tex Macros
Every so often I am asked how I put numbers in front of lines of code
in my books and papers and how I manage to label code fragments like
equations. Since the tex macros are rather simple, I decided to clean
them up and distribute them. The result is the environment `code'. A
directory containing the style file may be downloaded from
ftp://thales.cs.umd.edu/pub/misc/code.tar
In addition to code.sty, the directory contains some examples from an
accompanying expository paper, "The Gram-Schmidt Algorithm and Its
Variants," written especially for the purpose because Gram-Schmidt has
lots of variants use as examples.

Subject: MOORe Tools, A New MATLAB Package for Regularization
MOORe Tools - a new Matlab package for regularization
MOORe Tools is a new Modular and Object Oriented Regularization
Toolbox written in Matlab, suited for analysis and solution of large-scale
inverse problems. It can be viewed as the "next generation" of the
Regularization Tools package (developed in the early nineties).
MOORe Tools includes a variety of (mostly iterative) regularization
methods, such as:
- Tikhonov regularization, solved by applying CGLS to the
least squares formulation;
- Tikhonov regularization with p-norms (instead of 2-norms),
solved via a reweighted least squares algorithm;
- truncated SVD regularization;
- regularizing Krylov subspace iterations (CGLS, GMRES, etc.).
All regularization methods are based on an object oriented formulation
with linear operators working on vectors; the operator can be a
point-spread function, a Green's function, a convolution operator, etc,
while the vector can represent an image, a density distribution, a signal,
etc.
A few new large-scale test problems are included:
- steady-state heat distribution in 2D;
- 2D interpolation from regular grid to arbitrary points;
- image deblurring with separable blur.
The Matlab package was developed by Michael Jacobsen as a PhD
project at the Technical University of Denmark. Both the package
and the associated PhD Thesis are available from the MOORe Tools
homepage, which is available via the URL
http://www.imm.dtu.dk/nag/software (click on MOORe Tools link)
The package was developed at the same time as the RestoreTools
package for image deblurring
http://www.mathcs.emory.edu/~nagy/RestoreTools/index.html
but MOORe Tools is designed as a more general package.
Users of the new package are welcome to send comments and bug reports
to me. Enjoy the new package.

Subject: Nonlinear and Differential/Algebraic Equation Solvers
SUNDIALS (SUite of Nonlinear and DIfferential/ALgebraic equation Solvers)
version 2.0 has been released under an open source BSD license.
SUNDIALS 2.0 consists of the following four solvers:
CVODE v.2.2.0 solves initial value problems for ordinary differential
equation (ODE) systems.
CVODES v.2.1.0 solves ODE systems and includes sensitivity analysis
capabilities (both forward and adjoint).
IDA v.2.2.0 solves initial value problems for differential-algebraic
equation (DAE) systems.
KINSOL v.2.2.0 solves nonlinear algebraic systems.
SUNDIALS was implemented with the goal of providing robust time integrators
and nonlinear solvers that can easily be incorporated into existing simulation
codes. Basic operations on vectors are isolated to a separate module,
for which the distributed package includes serial and parallel versions,
but the user can supply his/her own version.
The SUNDIALS solvers are written in ANSI C, with CVODE and KINSOL also
providing a FORTRAN to C interface. All solvers can be built in single,
double, or extended precision.
More information (description, documentation, changes in the current versions)
and download links can be found on the updated SUNDIALS web page:

Subject: Hankel System with a Special Right Hand Side
Dear NA readers,
I am working on the solution of systems of linear equations with a
Hankel matrix H = [a_(i+j-1), i,j = 1, ... ,n] and right hand side
[a_(n+i), i =1, ... ,n] . The aim is to perform the computations in
interval arithmetic.
I have already investigated the Berlekamp-Massey algorithm but it has a
poor performance when using interval arithmetic. I would highly appreciate
receiving hints to other existing algorithms for such linear systems.
Note that the Levinson algorithm and the Durbin algorithm are not
applicable since the system considered does not enjoy a symmetry w.r.t.
the antidiagonal.
Sincerely,

Subject: Seeking Linear Algebra for Continuous Functions Literature
Dear NA Digest Readers:
My name is Zachary Battles and I am currently developing a system to
perform linear algebra on continuous functions and operators.
One particular area of interest to me is linear algebra for matrices
whose columns are continuous functions. For example, one might take the
QR factorization of a matrix with columns 1, x, x^2, ... to construct
Legendre polynomials. While this material is not new, there doesn't
seem to be many references in the literature. Other than de Boor,
Stewart and Trefethen, can someone point me to others who might have
written about this subject? Please respond to battles@comlab.ox.ac.uk.
Thank you for your assistance.

Subject: Staff Position at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory
Job opening in the Accelerator Modeling and Advanced Computing Group at
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory
Summary: The Accelerator Modeling and Advanced Computing (AMAC) Group in
LBNL's Center for Beam Physics is a world leader in applying high-end
computing to solve challenging, strategically important problems in
accelerator science and technology. Its activities involve developing
and utilizing parallel codes to simulate a variety of accelerator
systems and beam phenomena, including intense beams in linacs and rings,
beam-beam effects, collisional effects, electron-cloud effects, high
brightness electron guns, coherent synchrotron radiation, free electron
lasers, ion sources, and laser/plasma accelerators. The highly
nonlinear, multi-scale, and many-body aspects characteristic of future
design problems account for their extreme technical difficulty. Their
solution requires a combination of methods from modern accelerator
theory and nonlinear dynamical systems theory, computational science,
computer science, applied mathematics, and numerical analysis. AMAC is a
co-lead laboratory on a DOE Scientific Discovery through Advanced
Computing (SciDAC) project, and is also involved in R&D activities
associated with the proposed Rare Isotope Accelerator project. AMAC is
presently seeking a postdoctoral scientist, with a strong background in
scientific computing, to participate in research activities related to
the large-scale simulation of intense charged particle beams in
accelerators.
Qualifications: Essential-Ph.D. or equivalent experience in a discipline
of the physical sciences (including but not limited to accelerator
physics, plasma physics, or astrophysics), with experience in high-end
computing in that discipline, and a record of publication in that
discipline; Experience in developing and implementing parallel software
for large-scale scientific simulation. Demonstrated ability to
collaborate with others and work effectively in a team environment.
For Further Information: Directions on applying for this position can be
found at http://jobs.lbl.gov/ . The position is in the Accelerator &
Fusion Research Division, requisition # 017260. For further information
you may also contact that AMAC group leader, Dr. Robert D. Ryne, at
