Subject: SPEC Benchmark Contributions

SPEC (Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation) is soliciting
benchmark contributions from contributors for its SPEC CPU98 suite.
To this end, a program of awards for submitted and accepted
benchmarks has been created. The total value of the award can
reach $5000 for an accepted submission. Travel funds are to be
made available as needed. The intent is to publish descriptions for
each accepted benchmark in a special issue of a refereed journal.

The goal of the program is to elicit benchmarks representing
important applications in various technical fields. This is
a chance for all those who have suggestions to improve the
SPEC benchmark suite to improve it.

Anyone wishing further information may refer to the URL at:

Subject: Interpolation in an Unstructured Mesh

This is a general problem of estimating a field quantity at arbitrary
locations based on a representation of the field on another (possibly
unstructured) mesh.

We are working on a problem of interpolating a (source) gridded field
with known errors (i.e., error covariances) to another (destination)
gridded field. We would like to know both the field and the covariances
in the destination grid. Of particular interest is the case where the
source and/or destination grids are unstructured. Although the general
problem in N dimensions is of interest, we are most concerned now with 1,
(especially) 2, and 3 dimensions. We would welcome any input from people
who have worked on this or related problems.

Subject: Software for Robust Stability

This is to announce that we have developed software for checking stability
of polynomials with polynomial parameter dependency which is important for
several control problems. The approach is based on the expansion of a
multivariate polynomial into Bernstein polynomials. The results will appear
in the IEEE Trans. Automatic Control.
Stability regions include:

- open left half of the complex plane (Hurwitz/asmptotical stability)
- sectors in the left half of the complex plane (damping)
- open unit disc (Schur stability, under development).

Other problems covered include

- computing the stability margin
- exponential parameter dependency (under development).

Subject: Workshop on Parallel Algorithms and Software for CFD

Center for Research on Computation and its Applications
INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON PARALLEL ALGORITHMS AND SOFTWARE
FOR COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS

Montreal, March 24-25, 1997

The CFD problems such as numerical weather modeling, simulation of flows
around aircraft and vehicles, and oil reservoir simulations are among the
major clients of High Performance Computing Technology. The arrival of
distributed-memory massively parallel processors had promised a dramatic
increase in processing speed and computer memory available for the
applications. Many researchers have demonstrated that their CFD applications
can be ported to MPPs with a significant speed-up. Despite these facts,
parallel computing has not yet gained a widespread acceptance in the
scientific and engineering communities. One of the reasons for that is the
lack of software to support the CFD applications.

The goal of the proposed workshop is to bring together the developers of the
algorithms and software for the MPPs and the users applying the MPP
technology for the CFD problems in order to facilitate the practical use of
massively parallel computing.

Workshop Sponsors

The workshop is sponsored by CERCA (Centre de Recherche en Calcul Applique),
CRM (Centre de Recherches Mathematiques, Universite de Montreal), Silicon
Graphics Inc., and Environment Canada.

Workshop Themes

The themes of the workshop will include, but are not limited to:
- high speed flows around aircraft and vehicles
- numerical weather simulations
- flows with complex rheologies
- thermal convection
- domain decomposition methods

Subject: Postdoctoral Fellowship at CERCA

Center for Research on Computation and its Applications

INDUSTRIAL POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM

Competition no 5: Tracer Transport in the Stratosphere

The objective of the CERCA Industrial Postdoctoral Fellowship Program is to
provide recent doctoral graduates (or persons with equivalent experience)
with an opportunity to carry out applied research activities at CERCA, for a
period ranging between one year and three years, in an area identified as a
priority by one or several industrial partners of CERCA.

CERCA is a corporation created by Ecole Polytechnique, Universite de
Montreal, McGill University and Concordia University. It regroups Quebec
scientists utilizing numerical computation for scientific applications. It
concentrates mainly on fluid dynamics (with applications in aerodynamics,
hydraulics, turbulence, the environment, power and process, and combustion)
and also on chemistry. One of its main goals is to transfer technology from
university to industry.

The objective of the present competition is to provide a postdoctoral fellow
with an opportunity to work in the simulation of transport of tracers and
particles in the high stratosphere and, in particular, at the boundary of
the polar vortex. The code used will be GEM (Global Environnemental
Multiechelles) which uses the semi-Lagrangian method and a multiscale
technique. Candidates are expected to have experience in the area of
atmospheric physics or equivalent and to be able to carry out numerical
simulations in atmospheric dynamics. Experience in simulations with a high
resolution meteorological code would be an asset.

This postdoctoral fellowship is sponsored by Environment Canada (Recherche
en Prevision Numerique). The project director is Professor Alain Vincent.

The annual stipend is $32,000.

The deadline for receipt of applications is May 30, 1997. Applicants should
send a curriculum vitae, a statement of research interests and three letters
of recommendation to:

Subject: Research Assistantships at University of British Columbia

Research Assistantships Available
Department of Mechanical Engineering
The University of British Columbia

Several research assistantships (master's or PhD) are available in the
area of computational fluid dynamics beginning in September, 1997.
Current ongoing research projects include:

1. Development of high-order methods for solving the Navier-Stokes
equations on unstructured meshes. The goal of this project is to
extend recently-developed high-order algorithms for solving the Euler
equations to turbulent viscous flows and to assess the trade-offs of
using high-order methods versus second-order methods.

2. Unstructured mesh generation. This project involves improvement of
existing triangular and tetrahedral mesh generators and extension of
these codes to generate mixed element meshes and to generate meshes
directly from CAD data.

3. Aerodynamic/hydrodynamic optimization. This project is exploring a
new approach to gradient calculation for optimization. As this
project is just beginning, there is a great deal of room for creative
exploration as well as numerous real-world applications.

Financial support is available; the application deadline is March 31,
1997.
