Final Announcement and Call for Papers for
The 1988 Conference on the Numerical Solution of IVPs for ODEs
to be held 20-24 June 1988 at the University of Toronto
Organized by
Professors Wayne Enright and Ken Jackson,
Department of Computer Science, University of Toronto,
Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5S 1A4.
(enright@csri.toronto.edu or krj@csri.toronto.edu)
This is the final announcement and call for papers for The 1988
Conference on the Numerical Solution of Initial-Value Problems for
Ordinary Differential Equations to be held 20-24 June 1988 in the
Department of Computer Science at the University of Toronto. To
facilitate travel arrangements, the conference will close at noon of
the final day. The language of the conference will be English.
The previous conference in this series was held in Albuquerque
in July of 1986, and its programme included talks on both Initial-
Value Problems (IVPs) and Boundary-Value Problems (BVPs) for
Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs). Because of the large number
of researchers working in these two areas and the modest number of
them active in both fields, we chose to emphasize IVPs at the
Toronto meeting, although talks related to BVPs with a significant
IVP content will not be excluded.
There will be both 50-minute invited lectures and 30-minute
contributed talks at the Toronto meeting. In addition, there will
be ample time for informal discussion with colleagues. We are
pleased to announce that the following distinguished researchers
have accepted our invitation to speak at the conference:
J. C. Butcher, P. Deuflhard, J. Dormand and P. J. Prince,
C. W. Gear, R. Jeltsch, S. P. Norsett, and L. F. Shampine. We hope
to attain a balance between the practical and theoretical aspects
associated with the numerical solution of IVPs for ODEs in the talks
at this conference. In part, the invited speakers were chosen with
this in mind.
We encourage participants to submit (preferably with their
conference registration) a title, list of authors and their
addresses, and abstract for a 30-minute contributed talk. These
should be written in English, single spaced, at most one page in
length, and suitable for photo-copying onto 8.5 by 11 inch paper for
distribution in the form of a technical report to conference
participants. No other form of publication is planned for this
meeting. To enable us to inform authors by 1 May 1988 whether their
paper has been accepted for presentation at the conference, the
deadline for receiving titles and abstracts is 18 March 1988.
By holding the meeting on the university campus, we have
attempted to keep the conference registration fee to a minimum.
However, please note that to take advantage of this, you must
register before 13 May 1988. To do so, print and complete the
enclosed form and mail it together with your registration fee to the
address listed thereon. (Do not e-mail the form to me without
payment.) We have reserved a block of reasonably-priced rooms at one
of the university residences, a short walk of about 100 meters from
the conference site. To reserve a room, print and complete the
enclosed form and mail it together with your room deposit to the
address listed thereon. (Again, do not e-mail the form to me
without payment.) For those who prefer less Spartan accommodation,
we have reserved a block of rooms at the Delta Chelsea Inn in
downtown Toronto, about one kilometer from the conference site.
Please find enclosed directions for making room reservations at the
Inn. Although we believe that we have booked a sufficient number of
rooms, please reserve early to avoid disappointment.
We hope that there will be some funds available to defray the
expenses of those with limited or no travel support. To apply for
such assistance, include a letter with your registration form
detailing the amount of assistance you require from us, and send
your completed residence room reservation form to us rather than
directly to Residence Services. Preference will be given to those
applicants who will speak at the conference. We will hear by about
mid March how large a grant we have been awarded. As soon as
possible thereafter, we will inform you whether we are able to
provide any travel assistance to you.
This is the final general announcement for this conference.
Further information will be sent to registrants only.
Please circulate this announcement to interested colleagues.
