Subject: Singular symmetric Ax = b or Ax ~ b
When singular symmetric systems Ax = b arise, one may need the
minimum-length solution of the associated least-squares problem Ax ~ b.
MINRES-QLP is a new version of the MINRES iterative solver intended for
such systems (symmetric or Hermitian, definite or indefinite, singular or
ill-conditioned, compatible or incompatible).
We are seeking datasets from science and engineering applications for
software testing purposes. Please contact us if you would like to make a
contribution. Thank you very much.

Subject: Iterative templates project update
We have posted a maintenance and bug fix release of the MATLAB
implementation of the iterative linear solver templates project, available
for download via Netlib (www.netlib.org/templates). We have also posted a
pdf version of the book with which this code is associated, "Templates for
the Solution of Linear Systems: Building Blocks for Iterative Methods", 2nd
Edition, co-authored by Barrett, Berry, Chan, Demmel, Donato,
Dongarra, Eijkhout, Pozo, Romine and van der Vorst.
This work, originally released in 1993, continues to be a popular package on
Netlib: more than three thousand copies of the book were downloaded in 2005,
a pace that continues in 2006. The MATLAB code has been downloaded several
hundred times each year. The book is also available for purchase from SIAM,

Subject: Short Course: Sparse Representations and High Dimensional Geometry, May 30 - June 1, 2007
A short course on Sparse Representations and High Dimensional Geometry
- associated with the AMS 2007 Von Neumann Symposium of the same name -
will be held over the three days May 30 - June 1, 2007, at the Institute
for Pure and Applied Mathematics (IPAM) at UCLA.
http://www.ipam.ucla.edu/programs/vn2007/
Three hour tutorials will be given by:
A. Gilbert (Univ. of Michigan)
J. Romberg (Georgia Tech)
J. Tanner (U. of Utah)
J. Tropp (Univ. of Michigan)
R. Vershynin (U. of California Davis)
J. Zou (U. of Maryland, College Park).
The 2007 edition of the AMS Von Neumann Symposium concerns Sparse
Representation and High-Dimensional Geometry, which is currently
undergoing rapid advances in both theory and application. The Von Neumann
Symposium will bring together an exceptional assembly of researchers
investigating this topic from different perspectives. Invited speakers are
leading experts in algorithm design and analysis, information and coding
theory, and geometric and functional analysis. To breakdown barriers
between these often distinct groups, the invited speakers will give talks
accessible to the broad audience.
http://www.ams.org/meetings/vonneumann07.html
This associated short course will be held five weeks prior to the 2007 Von
Neumann Symposium. The principle aim is to provide a firm foundation in
sparse approximation to members of the scientific community new to the
topic - before the Von Neumann Symposium. Each speaker will give three
informal 50 minute tutorials on his or her area of expertise, conveying
his or her unique perspective. Speakers will be in residence for the
entire three day meeting and will be available to participants for in
depth discussions.
Funding to support the attendance of recent PhD's, graduate students, and
researchers in the early stages of their career. Mathematicians and
scientists at all levels who would like to learn more about this area are
encouraged to apply for funding. Encouraging the careers of women and
minority mathematicians and scientists is an important component of IPAM's
mission and we welcome their applications.

nearby fields where hints of similar connections have been detected.
Confirmed participants include experts in (1) applied harmonic analysis,
(2) geometric functional analysis, (3) optimization, (4) signal and image
processing, and (5) applications. Topics to be discussed include:
* Frameworks--general classes of problems where sparsity is present,
its exploitation would be valuable and new methodologies which could
exploit sparsity.
* Application Areas--current and emerging application areas where
sparsity is present; properties of actual signals and images in those
applications.
* Geometric Phenomenon--mathematical phenomena concerning high-dimensional
collections of functions relevant to sparsity and sparse reconstruction
algorithms.
* Algorithms--old and new algorithms for exploiting sparsity, and
analysis of those algorithms.
* Application Results--describing achievements in fields ranging
from astrophysical imaging to analog to digital conversion.
The conference will accommodate both the latest technical breakthroughs
and general survey/framework type presentations.

supercomputers. The candidate must possess strong technical,
leadership and communication skills.
POSITION RESPONSIBILITIES: Lead the design, implementation, test,
optimization, and maintenance of scientific libraries for Cray's
current and future supercomputers, as well as monitoring engineering
activities, insuring departmental responsibilities and milestones are

software engineer would be responsible for tuning and supporting the
FFTs for Cray's vector and scalar systems. To achieve the best
performance in some cases, this person would be responsible for tuning
some lower level butterfly routines in assembly language. Also,
because there is no standard interface for FFTs, this person would
need to support multiple interfaces including Cray's FFT interface and
FFTW's interfaces.
POSITION REQUIREMENTS: Knowledge of FFT algorithms and analysis is
required. Strong programming skills with extensive experience
programming in Fortran, C, and assembly language is required.
Experience programming high performance computer systems is desired.
Parallel programming experience with MPI, Shmem, OpenMP or Co-Array
Fortran is also desired. Excellent problem solving skills,
