The positions would not carry tenure, and would be for the full year or for a six month period spanning a teaching semester (Feb-June, July-Nov). Applications are welcomed from junior or senior people. Salary would be negotiated. The positions involve teaching 2 undergraduate courses per semester from the above areas, and contributing to the research activities of the department. The research interests of staff members in these areas include the numerical solution of integral equations, the numerical solution of inverse problems, discrete optimization methods and their application to industrial problem solving and numerical software development in ADA. The department is equipped with a PYRAMID 9810 supermini computer, Sun workstations and a range of PC equipment. Applicants should send a brief letter of application with their c.v. and the names of 2 referees to Dr V.G.Hart Head of Department Department of Mathematics University of Queensland St. Lucia, Q. 4067 AUSTRALIA A clear indication of availability for the first or second half of the year or for the whole year should be provided.

To promote this, morning and evening seminar sessions will be held and afternoons will be open for informal workshops, discussions, and special sessions. Anyone interested in organizing such a session should contact one of the chairmen. The conference will be held at the Copper Mountain Resort, about 75 miles west of Denver. Deluxe condominium accommodations and adjacent meeting rooms are in the Village Square Lodge at the base of the Copper Mountain F lift. TUTORIAL: The first day will be devoted to introductory lectures, based on the book "Multigrid Tutorial" by Bill Briggs, which will be available for purchase at the conference. PANEL DISCUSSION: Oliver McBryan will chair a group of experts to discuss multigrid methods in parallel computations. INVITED SPEAKERS: Arrangements are being made to feature several distinguished lecturers representing a broad spectrum of multigrid areas of research. PAPERS: Please send title, short abstract, mailing address, phone number, and e-mail address (if available) BY OCTOBER 24, 1988 to Jan Mandel. Complete manuscripts for inclusion into preliminary proceedings will be due February 28, 1989. Selected papers will be refereed for published proceedings and camera-ready copies will be due by July 1, 1989.
