Introduction to High Performance Scientific Computing
David L. Chopp

This book introduces methods for adding parallelism to numerical
methods for solving differential equations. It contains exercises and
programming projects that facilitate learning as well as examples and
discussions based on the C programming language, with additional
comments for those already familiar with C++. Based on a course
developed by the author, the text provides an overview of concepts and
algorithmic techniques for modern scientific computing and is divided
into six self-contained parts that can be assembled in any order to
create an introductory course using available computer hardware.

Subject: Mathematical Molecular Bioscience and Biophysics, USA, May 2019


The NSF-CBMS conference "Mathematical Molecular Bioscience and
Biophysics" will take place at The University of Alabama, USA on May
2019 (https://cbms.ua.edu/). A special issue for this conference will
appear in the journal, Computational and Mathematical Biophysics (CMB).

The purpose of this special issue is to provide a medium for
researchers from mathematical and biophysical sciences and other
related disciplines to report recent advances and challenges on
Mathematical Molecular Bioscience and Biophysics (MMBB). Numerous
areas of mathematics, including differential equations, geometry,
topology, graph theory, combinatorics, optimization, machine learning,
functional analysis, harmonic analysis, stochastic analysis, and
statistical inference, underpin MMBB and many of their successful
applications to biosciences will be highlighted in this special issue.

CALL FOR PAPERS, ARRAY 2019

6th ACM SIGPLAN International Workshop on
Libraries, Languages and Compilers for Array Programming
co-located with PLDI 2019 at ACM FCRC
22nd June 2019, Phoenix, Arizona
https://pldi19.sigplan.org/

Array-oriented programming offers a unique blend of programmer
productivity and high-performance parallel execution. As an
abstraction, it directly mirrors high-level mathematical constructions
commonly used in many fields from natural sciences over engineering to
financial modelling. As a language feature, it exposes regular
control flow, exhibits structured data dependencies, and lends itself
to many types of program analysis. Furthermore, many modern computer
architectures, particularly highly parallel architectures such as GPUs
and FPGAs, lend themselves to efficiently executing array operations.
This workshop is intended to bring together researchers from many
different communities, including language designers, library
developers, compiler researchers and practitioners who are using or
working on numeric, array-centric aspects of programming languages,
libraries and methodologies from all domains: imperative or
declarative; object-oriented or functional; interpreted or compiled;
strongly typed, weakly typed or untyped.

Paper submissions: 8th April, 2019 (anywhere on earth)
Notification of authors: 27th April, 2019
Camera-ready copies due: 10th May, 2019

Submissions are welcome in two categories: full papers and extended

abstracts. All submissions should be formatted in conformance with the
ACM SIGPLAN proceedings style. Accepted submissions in either category
will be presented at the workshop.

Papers must be submitted using EasyChair:

Subject: PhD Position, Trier Univ


In the Faculty IV (Department of Mathematics) at the Trier University,
a PhD position in "Optimization" is to be filled as soon as possible.
Remuneration is based on salary group E 13 TV-L (100%) and the
position is filled for an initial period of three years. An extension
of this period possible.

The tasks include the support of the professorship "Nonlinear
Optimization" in research and teaching as well as the participation in
the organization of the professorship. The opportunity for a doctorate
is given. Nonlinear optimization is a very active field of research,
especially in the context of mixed-integer problems. In the working
group, theoretical properties of this problem class are analyzed and
algorithms for the solution of mixed-integer nonlinear optimization
problems are developed. A further topic is equilibrium problems, which
are analyzed theoretically (exemplary questions are the existence and
uniqueness of solutions) and for which solution methods are also
developed. Many of the current questions in the working group are
motivated by technical-physical or economic aspects in the field of
energy, such as the cost-effective control of gas transport networks
or the analysis of electricity trading in Germany.

The applicant is expected to enjoy working in a team and to enjoy
applied mathematical research. We also expect the candidate to be able
to work independently, to be reliable, willing to work in an
interdisciplinary environment, and to have a good and English
languages skills.

The prerequisite for employment is a university degree in mathematics
(within the meaning of Section 56 Para. 2 No. 1 HochSchG). A focus on
optimization subjects during the studies is desirable. Severely
handicapped persons are given preferential employment if they are
suitable. The University of Trier is endeavouring to increase the
number of its female academics and urges them to apply.

Applications with the usual documents (letter of motivation,
curriculum vitae, certificates and, if applicable, list of
publications as well as a list of courses supervised to date) in a
single PDF file are requested by 15.03.2019 via e-mail to
Prof. Dr. Martin Schmidt (martin.schmidt@uni- trier.de).

supervisor or supervisory team and will finalise a thesis proposal by
the end of year 1. They will work on PhD research in years 2-4.
Further details about the programme can be found at
http://www.bath.ac.uk/math-sci/postgraduate/samba/programme/ .

You can apply for SAMBa by sending an expression of interest to the
Centre Coordinator, Jessica Ohren (samba@bath.ac.uk) to include:
