Subject: Egervary - ABS International Prize
EGERVARY-ABS INTERNATIONAL PRIZE
With reference to the intensive development of the ABS methods since 1981
at the University of Bergamo and to the seminal albeit little known works
of the late professor Egervary where the class of algorithms later called
the unscaled ABS class is already developed, an international prize is
offered by the Department of Mathematics of the University of Bergamo for
the best work in the ABS field authored by a single author whose age on
December 31, 1997, is no more than 39 years.
The prize consists in the sum of italian lire two millions, plus travel
expenses (economy class if by air) and living expenses for three days, to
come to Bergamo to present in a seminar the content of the winner paper.
Submitted papers can be either in preprint or already published form. They
must be sent to: The Director, Department of Mathematics, University of
Bergamo, p.za Rosate 2, 24129 Bergamo, Italy. Age must be certified by a
copy of the passport. Papers must be received by June 30, 1998.
The winner will be decided by an international commission of experts in
ABS methods. The winner will receive the prize in Bergamo, where he is
due to present his work.

Subject: New Edition of Stakgold's Green's functions and BVP book
The second edition of my book on "Green's functions and boundary value problems"
is being published by Wiley in Dec. 1997. About 25 to 30 % of the material has
been changed from the first edition. Although not dealing directly with
numerical methods, the book could serve effectively as background or companion
to a more numerically oriented course. The principal changes in the new
edition are in the areas of modeling, Fourier analysis, variational principles,
finite elements, fixed-point theorems,inverse problems , asymptotics, and
nonlinear methods. Throughout, I try to maintain a balance between sound
mathematics and meaningful applications.

Subject: HQP Now Available from the NEOS Server
The NEOS Server is now offering HQP for the solution of nonlinearly
constrained optimization problems in SIF format. HQP is suitable for
large nonlinearly constrained problems with sufficient sparsity
structure.
HQP implements a sequential quadratic programming algorithm that uses
an interior point algorithm for the solution of quadratic programming
subproblems and performs direct factorization of large sparse
matrices.
An interesting feature of the integration of HQP into NEOS is that
problems are solved at the Internet-enabled optimization service at TU
Ilmenau, Germany.
You can try out HQP by visiting the NEOS Server at

You can also use email; instructions are obtained by the message

the INFORMS College on Simulation (USA). St. Petersburg Workshop
on Simulation is a regular international conference of high level.
The main part of participants are recognized experts in the field
of simulation and experimental design and are invited personally.
Nevertheless the workshop is open for researchers who want to
present there results as well as for practitioners interesting in
the application of sophisticated mathematical techniques who would
like to participate without a paper presentation.
The 1st Workshop (May 24-28, 1994) and 2nd Workshop (June 18-22,
1996) showed that there exists mutual interest in the exchange of
ideas between scholars from Russia and from the West. The Third
Workshop will be devoted to further development and application of
sophisticated mathematical techniques to the solution of actual
problems in Stochastic Simulation and Experimental Design.
The end of June is the time of famous white nights and wonderful
weather in St. Petersburg. Participants will visit the remarkable
museums and theaters of the city.
Workshop topics:
Methodology of computer simulation
Stochastic simulation in physics and mechanics
Simulation and modelling in economics
Random number generators, simulation of random processes
Computer networks
Queueing system theory
Variance reduction techniques
Statistical methods in simulation
Optimal experimental design theory

ADVANCED SIGNAL PROCESSING FOR MEDICAL MAGNETIC RESONANCE SPECTROSCOPY
The research group SISTA (Signals, Identification, System Theory and
Automation) of the Department of Electrical Engineering (ESAT) at the
Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Leuven, Belgium, has an opening for one or two
researchers on the European TMR (Training and Mobility of Researchers) project
``Advanced signal processing for medical magnetic resonance imaging and
spectroscopy''.
In this project, the group develops with 8 other European groups
a fully automatic, user-friendly software package for the quantitation and
imaging of metabolites (MRS, MRSI) in clinical and medical research
environments. Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) enables to detect and
quantify metabolite concentrations in the region of interest in a subject.
MRS Imaging (MRSI) provides an image of the concentration of each metabolite
of interest. We extend/tune the MRS/MRSI software to distinct wishes of
industry and our user group comprising 100 teams, worldwide. This
multidisciplinary project covers mathematics, informatics, electrical
engineering, physics, biochemistry, medicine, and biology.
The new researcher will mainly contribute to the automation of metabolite
quantitation, especially for clinical environments. The signal-to-noise ratio
of MRS and MRSI signals being low, its task will consist of the development
and automation of robust model-based signal processing techniques that
accommodate any available chemical and instrumental prior knowledge.
The candidate should have a background in numerical linear algebra and
signal processing. The position is intended for a young EC researcher and
may lead to a Ph.D., but also post-doctoral researchers may apply.
The position is available for 3 years, starting January 1998.
