Subject: Jama, A Java Matrix Package
JAMA is an elementary linear algebra package for Java. It provides
basic user-level classes for defining and computing with real dense
matrices. Among its capabilities are the following:
Object manipulation: constructors, get, set, copy, clone Elementary
operations: addition, multiplication, norm, transpose, etc.
Decompositions: Cholesky, LU, QR, SVD, eigenvalue Linear equation
solution: regular and least squares Derived quantities: condition,
determinant, rank, inverse
JAMA is intended to serve as _the_ standard matrix class for Java,
and will be proposed as such to Sun via the Java Grande Forum. A
straightforward public-domain reference implementation has been
developed as a strawman proposal for such a class. We are releasing
this version in order to obtain public comment. There is no guarantee
that future versions of JAMA will be compatible with this one.
The initial version of JAMA was developed by Joe Hicklin, Cleve Moler
and Peter Webb of the MathWorks and Ron Boisvert, Bruce Miller,
Roldan Pozo and Karin Remington of NIST.
Further information on JAMA, including complete documentation and
source code, can be obtained at http://math.nist.gov/javanumerics/jama/.

ICM'98 Opening Ceremony Live in the Internet
Dear Colleague:
On Tuesday, August 18, the Opening Ceremony of the International
Congress of Mathematicians (ICM'98) in Berlin will be broadcast
live on the internet.
A highlight of the Opening Ceremony is the awarding of the
Fields Medals and the Nevanlinna Prize, sometimes called
the "Nobel" prizes of Mathematics.
For the first time in ICM history mathematicians throughout
the world will have a chance to participate in one of the most
important events in mathematics. Please inform your friends and
colleagues who do not have the possiblity to experience the
Opening Ceremony in person about this service.
The transmission will be done via MBone under the title
"ICM'98 Opening Ceremony" during the following
periods of time
Tuesday, August 18 10:00 - 12:30 Central European Summertime (CEST)
14:30 - 16:00 Central European Summertime (CEST)
This covers the whole Opening Ceremony and the speeches on the
achievements of the winners of the Fields Medal and the Nevanlinna Prize.
To give you an orientation,
Berlin 10:00 (this is CEST) corresponds to
Los Angeles 1:00 am
New York 4:00 am
Johannesbourg 10:00 am
Moscow 12:00 pm
Bombay 1:30 pm
Bangkok 3:00 pm
Beijing 4:00 pm
Tokyo 5:00 pm
Sydney 6:00 pm
To give mathematicians in America a chance to view the ICM opening
during daytime, we will REPEAT THE TRANSMISSION from 18:00 to 22:00
Central European Summertime (CEST) (leaving out the break).
For more information on this Mbone transmission, on the program
of the Opening Ceremony and on ICM'98 in general see the ICM'98 server,

Subject: Automatic Differentiation for MATLAB
Dear Colleagues,
ADMAT -- an Automatic Differentiation toolbox for MATLAB
is now available. ADMAT can compute derivatives of programs written
in MATLAB (i.e., M-files), e.g. the gradient, the Jacobian or the Hessian
matrix. ADMAT is very easy to use, it can compute derivatives of
most M-files and very easy to plug-into other MATLAB toolboxes.
Our research web page http://www.cs.cornell.edu/home/verma/AD/
has more information about our Automatic differentiation project
and efficient computation of sparse and structured derivative
matrices using AD technology.
To download get the following tarred and compressed file:
http://www.cs.cornell.edu/home/verma/AD/ADMAT.tar.gz
ADMAT runs under MATLAB version 5.0 and above. Read the file ADMAT/README
for information on documentation and user guide and some test applications.
Regards
Arun

Subject: Undigestify for Microsoft Outlook
If you use emacs to read NA Net you can "Undigestify" the mail. That is
there exists a command for breaking the single incoming message into
several smaller messages, one per contributor. This is useful if you
want to save one or two of messages, perhaps so that you can reply to
them.
Does anyone know of the existence of similar functionality for Microsoft
Outlook ... Perhaps some sort of plug in ...

Subject: Help on Gibbs-Poole-Stockmeyer_King Algorithms
Dear Colleagues,
May I ask if anyone has used TOMS Algorithm 582 which implements
Gibbs-Poole-Stockmeyer_King Algorithms? Basically the copy I
downloaded from netlib does not compile on Unix. The error message
says "Subscript number 1 has value 0 in array LVLLST". I located
the problem in LEND=... when LEVEL=DEPTH i.e. PLSTRT-1=0 as you see
SUBROUTINE GPSKCF (...)
INTEGER DEPTH
INTEGER LVLPTR(DEPTH)
... ...
DO 400 LEVEL = 1, DEPTH
PLSTRT = DEPTH - LEVEL + 1
LSTART = LVLPTR (PLSTRT)
LEND = LVLPTR (PLSTRT - 1) - 1
... ...
400 CONTINUE
...
END
But what is the fix? Any help/suggestions on the solution or
alternative public domain programs will be appreciated. Thanks.
