Subject: IEEE Trap Handling on SUN Systems

The following is the code needed to be able to trap Floating Point
exceptions within your code on SUN systems in FORTRAN.
Note: for you C programming types, this also works within C software.
Compile the following integer function along with the rest of
your code. You need to compile this and the routines you
want to look at with the -g option if using the debugger.
This has proved instrumental in debugging.

integer function handler(sig,code,sigcontext)
integer sig
integer code
integer sigcontext(5)
print *, ' ieee exception code ',loc(code),
& ' occurred at pc ', sigcontext(4)
call abort
end

Notes: the name 'handler' is user defined.

The first line of your main program needs the followinf stmt:
ieee= ieee_handler('set','common',handler)
or(or both):
ieee= ieee_handler('set','underflow',handler)

The last line of main program needs the following stmt.
ieee= ieee_handler('clear','all',handler)


notes: 'common' flags overflow, NaN, division by zero.
See man page on ieee_handler for more info.
User defined 'handler' needs to be declared as an
external integer function within the main program unit.
the integer variable 'ieee' is user defined.

Now complie with -g switch, fire up the debugger and make
sure the first command issued within the debugger is:

catch FPE

and type run. Upon encountering an exception, the code pauses execution
and the debugger points to the trapped line and informs user of what exception
occured and at what line number. To continue type cont and you will
encounter the next exception(if any).

An excellent reference is the SUN manual:

Numerical Computation Guide.

DISCLAIMER: I don't profess that this is the best or only way to
trap for floating point exceptions under SUN systems.

Can anyone suggest how to get similar effects with Turbo/Borland C?

Subject: Reality check for an IEEE arithmetic critic

Joe Grcar's complaints about IEEE arithmetic need to be addressed because
some of the things that he says are simply wrong. He made this complaint in
August of 1991:

>There is no machine epsilon.

Yes there is. Numbers can underflow, however, to de-normalized values
that result in a loss of precision. If you think this is a problem how are
you dealing with non-IEEE arithmetic that simply underflows to zero without
telling you about it?

Two weeks ago Grcar published part 2 of his complaint about IEEE
arithmetic which included the following:

>A colleague with a PhD in mechanical engineering just walked
>into may office and said:

>"I like my new SGI Indigo, but I really don't like those NaN
>things it has. I'm rewriting a piece of software and when I
>looked at the output it was all full of NaN's. I found out
>this means I'm dividing by zero somewhere, but where? ..."

Wrong. Under IEEE arithmetic dividing a finite, non-zero number by
zero produces an Inf. Division by zero produces a NaN only if the numerator
is zero, Inf, or NaN. NaNs can also be the result of common programming
errors like reading beyond the bounds of an array.

>By chance I once asked SGI technical support where to find
>documentation on IEEE arithmetic.

Here is an excellent reference that describes IEEE arithmetic:

"What every computer scientists should know about floating-point
arithmetic", David Goldberg, ACM Computing Surveys, v23, #1,
pp. 5-48, 1991.

In response to his posting, I sent Joe Grcar a message that included
this citation. He responded with:

>Pardon me for saying so, but I think your opinion
>of ieee arithmetic would be different if you had
>a real job instead of an academic one. Scientists
>and engineers don't hae time to read arcane
>documentation about trivia in some other field.

Well, I am a scientist and I have to read many papers every month, and
I found that reading Goldberg's paper was beneficial. But if Grcar doesn't
have time to read one paper where does he get the time to write complaints
about IEEE arithmetic for NA Digest? It may be easier to complain than it
is to educate yourself, but then why bother asking for documentation on IEEE
arithmetic in the first place. And why waste the bandwidth on the
network if you are going to be churlish when someone responds with a
reference that you were trying to find?

Also, I think that the people at Motorola, Intel, Sun, the Free Software
Foundation, Symantec, etc., etc., who implement IEEE arithmetic in hardware
and software, will be quite surprised to hear that they don't have real jobs.

I see two problems with IEEE arithmetic, neither one inherent to the
IEEE standard. First, there is a great deal of misinformation floating
around about it (i.e. getting a NaN means that you're dividing by zero).
Probably the worst example I've seen of misinformation about IEEE arithmetic
is P.J. Plauger's book __The Standard C Library__. He makes some ambiguous
comments about IEEE arithmetic in his chapter on the ANSI C math library
that lead you to believe that ANSI C requires IEEE arithmetic. It doesn't,
and he should have explicitly said so instead of making misleading comments.
Goldberg's paper is the cure for this problem.

The second problem is that examples of how to use the features of IEEE
arithmetic in C and Fortran source code are not readily available.
Unfortunately, Goldberg's paper is of no help here. Does anyone have
any examples of profitable use of IEEE arithmetic in their source code
that they can share?

Subject: Mathematics-in-Industry Study Group

MATHEMATICS-IN-INDUSTRY STUDY GROUP
31 January -- 4 February 1994 at the University of Newcastle

The tenth annual Mathematics-in-Industry Study Group (MISG) will be held at
the University of Newcastle from Monday January 31 to Friday February 4, 1994.

This meeting will be the first under the aegis of the Department of Mathematics
at the University of Melbourne. This department has recently become the new
sponsor of the MISG for a period of three to five years, with Dr Kerry A.
Landman as director.

The MISG brings mathematicians together to work exclusively on real-life
problems facing business and industry. Since 1984 the Study Group has worked
on 63 problems from 39 organisations, with participating companies ranging
from small electronics firms to mining giants. Past problems include
differential equation modelling, operations research, software design,
computational problems, communication theory, statistical problems, and more.
The applications have spanned Australian industry. The major prerequisites
are that the problems should be of practical importance and amenable to
mathematical modelling.

The Study Group is an opportunity for mathematicians to apply their skills
to real problems that present exciting challenges and new research topics,
and for industry to explore the problem solving power of mathematics.

The format of the Study Group will remain as in recent years. On the first
day, a set of scientific problems of industrial origin will be described by
industrial representatives and the assigned problem moderators. The
mathematicians will then work collaboratively with the industry participants
on the problems for three days before presenting their results on the final
day.

Please note the following items

- Financial support will be available on a needs basis for students,
unemployed mathematicians, and academic mathematicians. This will be in
the form of grants for travel costs and a contribution towards
accommodation costs.

- The MISG is keen to ensure greater participation by young mathematicians,
including those at Honours level. Seminars to describe the Study Group and
to encourage participation will be given at a number of universities in
spring this year.

- The MISG is hopeful that the Study Group will stimulate Honours projects
and eventually higher degrees; sponsorship for these projects will be
sought from major companies.

- A student technical essay competition with prize money from a sponsor
is again planned to be held in association with the Study Group.

- If you have any suggestion for suitable Study Group problems, or
industrial contacts who may have a problem for the Study group, please
get in touch with Kerry Landman

12,638 - 14,962 pounds (under review)

The Mathematics Department, as a result of recent funding of SHEFC, is able
to announce the appointment of two-post-doctoral Research Assistants, for a
period of two years initially, to work with the Computational Applied
Mathematics Group, whose interests include Engineering Geometry, Solar
Magnetohydrodynamics, Rational Approximation Theory, Computational Fluid
Dynamics and the Computational N-body problem.

In particular, one Assistant will concentrate on the Computational N-body
problem (including parallel implementation) in the context of Fluid Dynamics.
It is expected that part of the duties of the second Assistant will involve
numerical problems associated with Rational Approximants, although no prior
expertise in this topic is required.

Substantial expertise in Computational Mathematics would be an advantage in
each case. The successful candidates will be expected to have, or to have
submitted for, Ph.D degrees upon taking up their appointments.

Appointment will normally be made within the lowest quartile of the salary
scale.

Application forms and further particulars are available from the Head of
