Subject: Golub endows Saylor Professorship at Illinois

The Department of Computer Science at the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign has announced the establishment of the Paul
and Cindy Saylor Professorship. The new Professorship was
endowed through a generous gift from Stanford University Professor
Gene Golub, an Illinois alumnus and long-time supporter of the
Department. The gift was bestowed in honor of Golub's long-standing
friendship with Professor Emeritus Paul Saylor and his wife Cindy.
The department expects to announce the first holder of the
distinguished Saylor Professorship in the next academic year.

Subject: New iterative solution package for linear systems

Subject: New iterative solution package for linear systems

We are happy to publically release ITSOL, a new package for solving
linear systems of equations by iterative methods. ITSOL has been
developed by our research group in the last few years and incorporates
some of the most recent advances in iterative methods. It is written
in C and can be viewed as an extension of the ITSOL module in the old
SPARSKIT package.

Web-site: http://www.cs.umn.edu/~saad/software

Preconditioners included so far:
(1) ILUK (ILU preconditioner with level of fill)
(2) ILUT (ILU preconditioner with threshold)
(3) ILUC (Crout version of ILUT)
(4) VBILUK (variable block preconditioner with level of fill)
(5) VBILUT (variable block preconditioner with threshold)
both VBILUK and VBILUT support automatic block detection
(6) ARMS (Algebraic Recursive Multilevel Solvers -- includes actually
several methods - In particular the standard ARMS and the ddPQ
version which uses nonsymmetric permutations).

Subject: Listing of graduate CS&E programs

Hi;

I am trying to build a list of CS&E *graduate* programs. You can find
the current list at

http://www.math.colostate.edu/~estep/education/cse/cselisting.html

This list was generated by starting with some public lists and then
doing web searching on variations of CS&E. This is by no means an
exhaustive approach. I would appreciate any corrections or additions.

Right now the list focuses on CS&E related programs. I am thinking of
adding computational biology and finance as well as a section on
international programs. If you have suggestions for other additions, I
would be obliged.

Best wishes,
Don

Subject: INTLAB Version 5.2

Dear colleagues,

the new Version 5.2 of INTLAB, the Matlab toolbox for verified
computations, is available from

http://www.ti3.tu-harburg.de/rump

INTLAB comprises of fast interval operations for real and complex vectors
and matrices, full and sparse, elementary standard functions for real and
complex (interval) data, gradients, Hessians, polynomials, rigorous
input/output and more. Some examples of problem solving routines for
linear and nonlinear systems of equations, eigenvalue problems etc. are
included as well.

A number of changes, improvements and speed-ups have been implemented,
try

help Version5_2.m

For demonstration also Matlab-implementations of our new summation and dot
product routines are given, which will be published in

S.M. Rump, T. Ogita, and S. Oishi. Accurate Floating-Point Summation.
41 pages, submitted for publication, 2006.

Corresponding routines in XBLAS give a result of accuracy eps^2*cond, so
last-bit-accurate results can be expected for condition numbers up to
eps^-1. In contrast, our algorithm ALWAYS compute the result ACCURATE TO THE
LAST BIT, INDEPENDENT of the condition number! Nevertheless it is some 40%
faster than XBLAS (measured computing time in Fortran and C). All algorithms
use solely double precision operations.

Best wishes for the New Year 2006

Subject: Software Package for Visualizing Human Brain

Diffusion Simulation Based Fiber Tractography

A preliminary examination version of a software package
for tracking and visualizing human brain white matter
fiber pathways is freely available. The diffusion
simulation based fiber tractography (DST) makes use of
diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging (DT-MRI) to
in vivo trace the fibers noninvasively. This technique
paves the way to in vivo study anatomical connections
between different functional parts of the human brain,
and has many clinical applications to diagnosing certain
brain disorders and to neurosurgery.

This software package was developed with the generous
support of DOE Office of Science and used the SUNDIALS
software package from DOE's ACTS Collection to solve
the time-dependent diffusion equation.

The software package is freely available from the web
page of the Laboratory for Computational Medical
Imaging & Data Analysis (the CMIDA Lab) at
http://www.cs.uky.edu/~cmida, by clicking the Software
button. Please read the standard disclaimer before you
start using it.

Subject: RISOLV

APMATH ( a subsidiary of UPI http://www.upi.co.il ) is announcing the
release of RISOLV.
RISOLV is a Robust Iterative SOLVer for large scale linear systems. The
algorithm is based on polynomial approximation in the complex plane. As
such, it does not stagnate or breakdown. Whenever a theoretical polynomial
algorithm can reach a solution, so does RISOLV with number of iterations
close to the optimal. It is specially attractive for parallel computing.
Please look at http://www.apmath.com for more information.

(www.ijcse.org)

Special issue on:
Enabling Technologies for High-Performance Simulations of Reactive Flows

Deadline for paper submission: 28th February 2006

RATIONALE AND FOCUS
Predictive simulations of reactive flows require 3D models of multiphase flows
with a close interaction between physical and chemical processes. The energy
release in both processes is complex and drives the fluid flow; turbulence is a
central issue; detailed chemical kinetic schemes and transport of mass, species,
heat and particles play a key role. Reliable algorithms and software for
efficient solution of the models on large structured and unstructured, possible
moving, grids lead to large-scale computational problems. High-performance
computing and communication are enabling technologies for reliable and
predictive computer simulations of reactive flows. However, advances in
computer architectures, in communication networks, in programming models and
environments are a permanent challenge for the design and development of
efficient methods, algorithms and software needed to approach more and more
complex problems and sophysticated models.

The papers in this special issue should discuss recent challenges and results
in using high-performance technologies for simulations of reactive flows in
scientific and engineering applications. Areas of interest include, but are not
limited to:
* high-performance algorithms and software components;
* visualization and data management tools;
* distributed and grid-enabled Problem Solving Environments;
* advances in modeling detailed chemistry and transport of reactive flows;
* engineering and scientific applications (engine modeling, environmental
modeling, aerospace system modeling, reservoirs modeling,...)

The special issue will contain some of the papers presented at a special session
within the first International Conference on High Performance Computing and
Communication (HPCC'05), that took place in Sorrento-Italy on September 2005,
and other papers from authors actively working on the topics outlined above.
