These include SIAM Jr. on Applied Math, SIAM Jr. on Numerical Analysis, SIAM Review, Comm. of ACM, ACM Journal, Computing Reviews, Math. of Comp., Notices and Bulletin of AMS, etc., etc. Is there anyone out there who has need or knows of anyone who has need or can use any of these? My alternative is to discard them.

One will treat both theory and computation for ordinary differential equations, and the other will do the same for partial differential equations. Can anyone suggest a textbook for either course? The language should be English, and it would be desirable if the texts contained technical applications. Vincent A.

This prompts us to publicise the availability of our Numerical Analysis Report 248, Issues in the Numerical Solution of Evolutionary Delay Differential Equations by C T H Baker, C A H Paul and D R Wille available by anonymous ftp from vtx.ma.man.ac.uk (130.88.16.2) in pub/narep as narep248.ps.Z. This report is based on the talk at SCADE93 in Auckland, given by Christopher Baker, and is dedicated to John Butcher. It includes 75 references to existing work in this area. Incidentally, the authors would appreciate receiving comments on this report from others working in the area. Christopher Baker ------------------------------ From: Gerry Thomas Date:Fri, 22 Apr 1994 14:13:06 -0400 Subject: Integrals Involving the Error Function "Integrals of the form Integrate[Exp[-(at+b)^2]Erf[ct+d]Erf[et+f],{t,-Infinity,Infinity}], where a-f are finite, arise in a variety of contexts. I have used both Maple and Mathematica to find some closed form expressions for these integrals but drew a blank. The old reliable (pencil & paper) gives Sqrt(pi)/a{Erf[(ad+bc)/Sqrt(a^2+c^2)]-2Erf[bc/Sqrt(a^2+c^2)]} when e=0 and Erf(f)=1. Can anyone help for arbitrary a-f?"

We are attempting to schedule these sessions to minimize conflict, using a discrete optimization algorithm. The data we need for the scheduling program is part of the SIAM Registration card. So, if you haven't registered yet, you haven't participated in scheduling the common interest sessions either. We will construct the schedule based on preregistrations that we receive by May 1st. (We'd rather wait to perform the scheduling after everyone's preferences are in, but some attendees have asked us to finish earlier to allow them to tune travel plans to the final schedule.) So, please register early! You can still preregister at the reduced price until June 1st, but scheduling data received after May 1st will be ignored. We encourage those of you who have not yet registered to do so as soon as possible. If you really intend to attend the meeting, but cannot submit your registration to SIAM by the May 1st deadline because of bureaucratic barriers, please communicate directly with John Lewis (jglewis@espresso.rt.cs.boeing.com). If you are undecided about attending because you missed the deadline for submitting a paper to the proceedings, please remember that each common interest session will begin with a half-hour poster session, at which you can present your work, and if you wish, distribute preprints.
