My background is the following. I have studied mathematical engineering, and then obtained my Ph.D. in the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, Switzerland. The subject of my dissertation was the numerical simulation of solidification of mechanical pieces casted in molds, with a strong emphasis on implementation of efficient algorithms on vector/parallel computers. For the past year, I have been under a research grant in the Division of Applied Mechanics at Stanford University. If you are interested in my application, please contact me for any further details.

Bifurcation phenomena are studied by means of a numerical continuation technique. Since no codes seemed to be available for large systems (with sparse, non-symmetric and indefinite Jacobian), we have started the development of our own code some time ago. For monitoring the the system properties along the continuation path and especially those of singular points, the problem eigenvalues are of particular interest. We were not able yet to identify a computer code or an algorithm which would allow a reliable and efficient computation of all the eigenvalues or at least of all those eigenvalues located in strip around the imaginary axes. We would appreciate any reference to computer codes, known algorithms or work in progress on the large sparse eigenvalue problem (for non-symmetric matrices) or, more general, on numerical continuation techniques for sparse problems. Thank you for your help. Wolfgang Marquardt ------------------------------ From: Christian Cabos Date: Mon, 7 Sep 92 14:50:01 +0200 Subject: BLAS3 on Sparc-stations Since we currently installing LAPACK at our site, I am looking for a set of optimized BLAS routines for SUN Sparc-stations (source or binary). There is an optimized FORTRAN source code for BLAS 3 available from "ibmblas3 from misc" at netlib. It is tuned for the IBM 3090 Vector Facility with high speed memory cache. We experienced a factor 2 to 3 speed improvement by using it on our mainframe. By simply compiling this 3090 code on a SUN Sparc IPX the routine "dgemm" achieved 5.2 Mflops as compared to 3.3 Mflops with the standard dgemm source code. One reason for this might be that both machines have a 64 kByte memory cache. Does anybody have code optimized specifically for Sparc-stations ?

Wubs Date: Thu, 10 Sep 92 15:49:00 METDST Subject: Numerical Inverse Laplace Transform Inverse Laplace Transform As far as we know, in existing codes for the inverse Laplace Transform the input function is supposed to be known analytically. Our question is whether there exists a code which can take emperical data as input. Does anyone have pointers to such a code?
