<br />Subject: Timo Eirola 1951-2016

<br /><br />Dear colleagues,
<br />
<br />It is with a heavy heart that we bring you the sad news that
<br />our friend and colleague Timo Eirola passed away on May 15.
<br />Timo was just shy of his 65th birthday, and had recently retired
<br />from Aalto University (formerly Helsinki University of Technology).
<br />
<br />Timo's career spanned more than 35 years, during which he held
<br />professorships at Helsinki University of Technology, Joensuu
<br />University, and Aalto University.  He had long term visiting
<br />positions at Leningrad State University, the Banach Center,
<br />Mittag-Leffler Institute, University of Geneva, the MSRI, and
<br />Georgia Tech.
<br />
<br />He authored influential works on several different problems in
<br />numerical dynamical systems, methods for differential equations,
<br />numerical linear algebra, and smoothness of wavelets.
<br />
<br />Those of us who have had the fortune to know him well for many
<br />years will badly miss him and his quick wit, dry humour, beautiful
<br />mind and steadfast friendship.
<br />
<br />Timo is survived by his wife Stina, three sons, and several
<br />grandchildren.  Please keep him and his family in your thoughts.
<br />
<br />Luca Dieci and Bob Russell.

<br />Subject: Fast QR with Column Pivoting

<br /><br />Householder transformation based QR factorization with column pivoting
<br />is an important algorithm for, for example, determining an approximate
<br />basis for the column space of a matrix.  It is, unfortunately,
<br />notoriously difficult to implement for high performance.
<br />
<br />Recently, techniques that use randomized sampling have been developed
<br />that do achieve high performance by casting most computation in terms
<br />of matrix-matrix multiplication.  For example, in our recent paper
<br />
<br />Per-Gunnar Martinsson, Gregorio Quintana-Orti, Nathan Heavner, Robert
<br />van de Geijn.  "Householder QR Factorization: Adding Randomization for
<br />Column Pivoting. FLAME Working Note #78"
<br />http://arxiv.org/abs/1512.02671
<br />
<br />we describe such an algorithm.
<br />
<br />We are happy to announce an implementation that we call Householder QR
<br />factorization with Randomization for Pivoting (HQRRP) based on the
<br />insights in that paper. The new code outperforms LAPACK's core routine
<br />DGEQP3 both in unicore and multicore architectures for medium and
<br />large matrix sizes, often by large factor.  The new implementation
<br />comes with an interface that is plug compatible with DGEQP3.  The new
<br />code can be downloaded from https://github.com/flame/hqrrp/.
<br />
<br />We will appreciate feedback from the community on the use of this code.

<br />Subject: Advanced Computation in Fluid Mechanics, Spain, Jun 2016 

<br /><br />This is an advanced course which introduces the Navier-Stokes
<br />equations as the basic model of fluid mechanics, and adaptive finite
<br />element methods to compute approximate solutions. The overall aim is
<br />the introduction of a new approach to computational turbulence
<br />modelling referred to as General Galerkin (G2) or Direct FEM
<br />Simulation (DFS) which enables cheap adaptive parameter-free
<br />prediction of aerodynamic forces at high Reynolds number using a
<br />residual based stabilisation as turbulence model. Further, a new model
<br />for turbulent flow separation with a slip boundary condition together
<br />with detailed DFS computations enables the understanding of the
<br />fundamental mechanics of flight.
<br />
<br />The theoretical parts of the course concern stability analysis of the
<br />numerical method, and goal oriented a posteriori error
<br />estimation. Practical parts of the course focus on computer
<br />implementation of finite element methods for the Navier-Stokes
<br />equations in the FEniCS automated framework for solution of partial
<br />differential equations, including adaptive mesh refinement, and
<br />applications of the methods on supercomputers.
<br />
<br />Please see the course home page for more information:
<br />http://www.bcamath.org/en/workshops/ntf
<br />
<br />There is no registration fee for the summer school. However, we kindly
<br />ask you make your inscription here (below the info of this activity)

<br />Subject: PhD Position, Parallel Scientific Computing, Leeds, UK

<br /><br />A fully-funded PhD studentship (fees and living costs) is available to
<br />undertake a project on the application and development of open source
<br />software tools for the parallel, adaptive solution of phase change
<br />problems for metallic materials. The successful applicant will need a
<br />high level of applied mathematical knowledge and outstanding
<br />programming and software skills. Since the studentship will require
<br />close collaboration with materials scientists at Leeds and elsewhere
<br />in the UK, as well as collaboration with other software developers,
<br />applicants will also need excellent communication and teamwork skills
<br />combined with an ability to make independent individual progress.
<br />
<br />For further details of the position, with details of how to apply,
<br />please visit:

<br />degrees/618/massively-parallel-scientific-computing-with-applications-in-material-
<br />science-and-metallurgy-
<br />
<br />The closing date is 17th June 2016 but informal enquiries to Peter
<br />Jimack (p.k.jimack@leeds.ac.uk) are strongly encouraged in advance of
<br />this deadline.
