Subject: New book, FAIR: Flexible Algorithms for Image Registration
Announcing the October 19 publication by SIAM of:
FAIR: Flexible Algorithms for Image Registration
Jan Modersitzki
2009 / Approx. xxii + 189 pages / Softcover / ISBN 978-0-898716-90-0
List Price $69.00 / SIAM Member Price $48.30 / Order Code FA06
This book provides an overview of state-of-the-art registration techniques
from theory to practice, plus numerous exercises designed to enhance readers’
understanding of the principles and mechanisms of the described techniques. It
also provides, via a supplementary Web page, free access to FAIR.m, a package
that is based on the MATLAB® software environment, which enables readers to
experiment with the proposed algorithms and explore the presented examples in
more depth.
Written from an interdisciplinary point of view, this book will appeal to
mathematicians who want to learn more about image registration, medical
imaging professionals who want to know more about and explore available
imaging techniques, and computer scientists and engineers who want to
understand the numerical schemes behind the techniques. The book is also
appropriate for use as a course text at the advanced graduate level.
Jan Modersitzki is an Associate Professor in the Department of Computing and
Software at McMaster University in Hamilton, Canada. His primary research
interest is in medical imaging, specifically correspondence and registration
problems.

In November 2009, UC San Diego will host the following workshop:
Adaptive and Multilevel Methods for Partial Differential Equations
November 13-14, 2009
UC San Diego in La Jolla, California
Adaptive and multilevel methods are two very successful classes of modern
numerical methods for solving partial differential equations. A rich
convergence theory has been developed for multilevel methods, and recently
there have been major advances in the development of convergence theory for
adaptive methods. The purpose of the workshop is to bring together active
researchers in these two related areas to germinate additional advances.
The workshop is being held in honor of Randolph Bank's 60th Birthday, and
is being hosted by the Center for Computational Mathematics at UC San Diego.
We will also be celebrating the retirement of James Bunch, who started the
numerical analysis group at UCSD in the 1970's. There will be a conference
dinner on Friday evening (November 13).
The workshop will consist of twelve 40-minute talks, taking place between
9am and 5:30pm on Friday November 13, and between 9am and 12:30pm on
Saturday November 14. Confirmed invited speakers include:
- Andrea Bonito (Texas A&M University)
- Long Chen (University of California, Irvine)

senior applicants would be considered.
The appointment is expected to be in numerical analysis within the broad
area of differential equations and scientific computing. Applicants should
have expertise in both analytical and computational aspects, and an active
interest in problems driven by applications.
Candidates must have a doctoral degree at the date of appointment and a
strong background in mathematics. They are expected to have demonstrated the

include research accomplishments, as well as potential contributions to the
Department’s educational programs at the graduate and undergraduate levels.
Applications should be made through MathJobs.Org (Position ID:
McGill-APNUM) and must include a curriculum vitae, a list of publications,
a research outline, a teaching statement which includes an account of
teaching experience, and at least four references (with one addressing the
teaching record). Candidates are also encouraged to provide web links for up
to three selected reprints or preprints, or to upload them to MathJobs.Org.
Candidates must ensure that letters of reference are submitted (preferably
through mathjobs.org, though in exceptional circumstances they may be mailed
to Professor A.R. Humphries, Applied Mathematics Search Committee, Dept. of
Mathematics and Statistics, McGill University, 805 Sherbrooke St. W.

Subject: Postdoc position in numerical simulation at Montpellier, France
A post-doctoral position is opened in the Mechanics and Civil Engineering
Laboratory (LMGC) at Montpellier, France (http://www.lmgc.univ-montp2.fr). The
theme is "Non-regular dynamics of multibody systems and rigid / deformable
représentation".
Contact: {dubois,dureisseix,pagano}@lmgc.univ-montp2.fr
Background: Project Saladyn (Salome-meca platform for the simulation of non
smooth dynamical multi-models in interaction), selected in 2008 in the "Design
and Simulation" project call of the french national research agency (ANR).
The underlying goal is to design and integrate numerical schemes adapted to an
adaptive mechanical multi-representation of components of a non smooth
dynamical system. The simulation software platform (LMGC90,
http://www.lmgc.univ-montp2.fr/~dubois/LMGC90/index.html) is suited to the
dynamical simulation of a large collection of bodies (rigid and/or deformable)
in interaction. The objective is to be able to have a theoretical and
numerical framework making it possible to take into account the switch between
modelings, for example from rigid to deformable and vice versa. Applications:
the fracturing of the grains (crushing, liquefaction in the rock avalanches,
stuffing of the railway ballast...). A co-rotational formulation per body is
currently planned (under development) in order to separate the treatment of
the dynamic part of "rigid" body and the quasi-static part "deformable"
assumed to remain in small perturbations. The post-doctoral training course
relates initially to the establishment of an integrated formulation of the
rigid/deformable representation, its implementation in the code previously
mentioned and execution of test cases for validation must be carried out.
Desired skills: Dynamics of rigid solid and non-linear deformable solid,
contact mechanics, Numerical analysis, practice of numerical simulation,
programming (fortran90, python, c++)
Income: approximately 2000 Euros net.

The Center for Applied Scientific Computing at the Lawrence
Livermore National Laboratory has an opening for a postdoctoral
researcher in the area of constructing coarse (upscaled) finite
element discretization schemes based on algebraic mutlgrid. The main
focus will be in the construction of discretization spaces/schemes
utilizing constrained energy minimization. A second related research
topic is a finite element smooth function recovery. It consists of
nonlinear (total variation) functional minimization subject to
constraints with a main target the construction of conservative
