Subject: PSwarm solver release and homepage

Dear NA-Digest Readers,

We would like to announce the release of the PSwarm solver.

PSwarm is a global optimization solver for bound-constrained
problems (for which the derivatives of the objective function are
unavailable, inaccurate or expensive).

The algorithm combines pattern search and particle swarm. Basically,
it applies coordinate search in the poll step and particle swarm in
the search step.

PSwarm makes no use of derivative information of the objective
function. It has been shown to be efficient and robust for smooth
and nonsmooth problems, both in serial and in parallel.

The code is written in both Matlab and C. It provides an interface
with AMPL. The C code includes a parallel version using MPI.
PSwarm can also be run through the NEOS server.

See the PSwarm home page (http://www.norg.uminho.pt/aivaz/pswarm)
for additional information on the conditions for use and download.

See also A.I.F. Vaz and L.N. Vicente, A particle swarm pattern
search method for bound constrained global optimization, to appear
in Journal of Global Optimization, for more details including a
numerical comparison of PSwarm with several other codes.

Best regards,
Ismael Vaz

Subject: Workshop at the Isaac Newton Institute: young US-based researchers

An NSF grant has been just approved to assist in the participation of young
US-based researchers at the current programme on "Highly oscillatory problems:
Computation, theory and applications" at the Isaac Newton Institute
(Cambridge, UK). We have decided to use to to enable the participation of a
number of young US-based colleagues at the forthcoming workshop on "Effective
computational methods for highly oscillatory problems: The interplay between
mathematical theory and applications" (2--6 July 2007,
http://www.newton.cam.ac.uk/programmes/HOP/hopw05).

The grant will cover the full "workshop package" of local expenses (room and
full board, workshop fees, workshop dinner) but not travel. Having said so,
participants might find it convenient to combine their travelling arrangements
with any of several other conferences and meetings held in Western Europe in
close time proximity.

Anybody interested should email Arieh Iserles (ai@damtp.cam.ac.uk) as soon as
possible, enclosing a brief CV. Explaining (briefly, please) how will you
benefit from the workshop will come useful. In case you would like to offer a
talk or a poster (neither is a condition for funding!), please enclose a
(tentative) title and abstract.

CALL FOR PAPERS
HPCC-07
The 2007 International Conference on High Performance
Computing and Communications
September 26 - 28, Houston, Texas, USA,
http://www.tlc2.uh.edu/hpcc07/

With the rapid growth in computing and communications technology,
the past decade has witnessed a proliferation of powerful parallel
and distributed systems and an ever increasing demand for practice
of high performance computing and communications (HPCC). HPCC has
moved into the mainstream of computing and has become a key
technology in determining future research and development activities
in many academic and industrial branches, especially when the
solution of large and complex problems must cope with very tight
timing schedules. The HPCC-07 conference provides a forum for
engineers and scientists in academia, industry, and government to
address the resulting profound challenges and to present and discuss
their new ideas, research results, applications and experience on
all aspects of high performance computing and communications. With
this third event in this new conference series, HPCC-07 plans to
continue the success of the first two HPCC conferences, held 2005 in
Sorrento, Italy, and HPCC-06 held in Munich, Germany, each with over 300
submitted papers and more than 100 participants.

Subject: Sparse Days at CERFACS

SPARSE DAYS at CERFACS

A number of colleagues and regular CERFACS visitors have asked me what the
plan is for the regular annual Sparse Days at CERFACS.

This year, as has been common roughly every other year, we will combine
our sparse days event with a more major international meeting. In fact,
this year, we will support and encourage you to support by your
attendance two meetings that will be held on the Meteo campus this summer.

The first is the Preconditioning 2007 meeting that is co-sponsored by
CERFACS and ENSEEIHT-IRIT. This will be held from July 9-12 (the week before
ICIAM 2007 in Zurich). Further information can be found through the Algo web
page at CERFACS (http://www.cerfacs.fr/algor/) or directly from
http://www.precond07.enseeiht.fr/

The second meeting will take place on October 11-12 2007 and will
commemorate the fact that CERFACS started on 1st October 1987, twenty
years ago. The 11th will be devoted to talks from well known personalities
who have had connections with CERFACS while the 12th will be specifically
an Algo Day, principally with speakers telling us how their technical (or
other) life was transformed by CERFACS and briefly describing their
current research or scientific work. There will be more on this shortly
on www.cerfacs.fr. If there is a strong interest for more regular
scientific talks, then we will hold them on Wednesday 10th.

Best wishes
Iain

prediction/data assimilation working with Professor Chris Budd and
Professor Ivan Graham in close collaboration with Professor Mike
Cullen at the UK Met Office.

The project will involve a substantial amount of scientific computing.
The fellow will also undertake a small amount of teaching.

Following successful completion of the fellowship, the fellow will
become a permanent faculty member of the Department of Mathematical
Sciences, University of Bath. They will be expected to undertake a
normal teaching load in mathematics and to engage in research
resonating with that of the department.

Research group.
The BIOMED team within the ESAT-SCD division consists of 1 staff member,
3 postdocs, 11 PhD students. Research - fundamental/theoretical as well as
application oriented - is performed in the domain of (multi)linear algebra,
(non)linear signal analysis, classification and system identification with
special focus to the development of numerically reliable and robust algorithms
for the extraction of clinically, biochemically or pharmaceutically relevant
information (e.g. metabolite concentrations in the brain) out of low-quality
multi-channel measurements in order to enable an improved medical diagnosis.
In this domain the group has built up an international reputation.
Applications under study are: quantification of metabolite concentrations
using in-vivo Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopic (MRS) data and images,
quantification of brain oxygenation in neonates using (functional)
Near-Infrared Spectroscopy, quantification of cardiovascular dynamics and
auto-regulation, detection of somato-sensory evoked potentials in EEG,
preoperative classification of (brain, ovarian, breast, prostate) tumours,
prediction/detection of epileptic seizures based on scalp-EEG monitoring.

Three PhD positions.
We seek one of more outstanding graduate students for the following
multidisciplinary research projects:

1.Numerical algorithms for tensor decompositions and tensor based signal
processing with applications in epileptic seizure detection;
2.Advanced signal processing for data fusion of multimodal information
acquired simultaneously (such as EEG, ECG, EMG, EOG, (functional) MR Imaging,
PET and SPECT) with applications in neonatal intensive care monitoring;
3.Integration of EEG and functional MR Imaging with applications in monitoring
cognitive disorders in patients with MS and ADHD.

The research is done in a multidisciplinary environment in strong
collaboration with the appropriate divisions in the University Hospitals
K.U.Leuven. All positions are immediately vacant. The PhD work will be
supervised by Prof. Sabine Van Huffel.

Profile:
We are particularly seeking candidates with a Master-of-Science degree in
biomedical, electrical, computer science or mathematical engineering, in
bioengineering or in mathematics, and with strong interests in optimization,
signal processing, statistics, numerical computations, and biomedical
applications. The ability to become acquainted with new methods within short
time and good familiarity with scientific tools like MATLAB programming and
statistical analysis are appreciated. The chosen candidate will be an
enthusiastic person and initiator with good communication skills and a good
knowledge of English.

Application:
To apply, please send a CV and a cover letter before June 15, 2007 to Prof.
Sabine Van Huffel (sabine.vanhuffel@esat.kuleuven.be)
