* * * MULTIGRID TUTORIAL * * *
Bill Briggs
This tutorial is designed for those who have some familiarity with traditional
methods for solving systems of linear equations and boundary value problems,
but who have no experience with multigrid methods. The tutorial will attempt to
present the essentials of multigrid methods. It will describe why they work so
effectively, how they are implemented and applied and how they compare with
other methods. The tutorial will be informal with opportunities for questions
and experts on hand to answer them. The following topics will be covered.
1. Model problems
2. Basic iterative schemes
a. Convergence properties
b. Limitations and remedies
3. Coarse grid correction strategies
a. Restriction and interpolation
b. Standard multigrid cycles
c. Convergence properties
4. Performance
a. Implementation
b. Complexity
c. Experimental results
5. Extensions
a. FAS schemes
b. Adaptive schemes
c. Nonlinear schemes
* * * MULTIGRID CLINIC * * *
A. Brandt
The purpose of this clinic is to discuss advanced topics and to provide a
forum for discussion of implementation troubles and research problems.

Gene,
Could you please distribute the following announcement to the nanet
mailing list. It announces a two-week workshop in parallel computation
to be held this June at the University of Colorado. It is intended
to introduce computer science students to the use of and research
issues in parallel computation. We expect that it will be an excellent
experience for those students who are chosen to attend.
Thanks for your assistance, and best wishes
Bobby Schnabel

SUMMER WORKSHOP IN PARALLEL COMPUTATION
UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO
(Preliminary Announcement)
The Department of Computer Science and the Academic Computing
Center will hold a two-week Workshop in Parallel Computation on
the campus of the University of Colorado from 15 June 1987 to 26
June 1987. The Workshop will consist of lectures by leading ex-
perts in parallel computation and laboratory work on local memory
and shared memory multiprocessors. The tentative list of speakers
includes Jim Browne (U. Texas), Oliver McBryan (Courant Insti-
tute), James McGraw (Livermore), Cleve Moler (Intel), Danny
Sorensen (Argonne), David Waltz (Thinking Machines), Harry Jordan
(U. Colorado), Gary Nutt (U. Colorado), Bobby Schnabel (U.
Colorado). Lectures will cover a broad range of topics including
languages, architectures, numerical and non-numerical applica-
tions. The Workshop is intended for graduate students and recent
PhD's in computer science as well as a smaller number of espe-
cially promising undergraduate students. It is expected that
these participants will bring with them a project to be worked on
during the laboratory sessions.
Participants may receive a stipend of approximately $500, the ex-
act amount depending on the estimated costs of the workshop to
the participant and his or her need for support. The selection of
participants will depend on the following criteria: brief state-
ment of research activities and interests; two letters of recom-
mendation; transcript of grades; and, description of parallel
computation project for the Workshop.
It is anticipated that this workshop will be supported in part by
the Office of Advanced Scientific Computing of the National Sci-
ence Foundation.
Inquiries should be addressed to:
Professor Lloyd Fosdick
Department of Computer Science
Campus Box 430
University of Colorado
Boulder, CO 80309
