Invitation to the
THIRD EUROPEAN CONFERENCE ON MULTIGRID METHODS
AND PARALLEL COMPUTING
OCTOBER 1 - 4, 1990
BONN, GERMANY
Organized by: Gesellschaft fuer Mathematik und Datenverabeitung (GMD)
Chairmen: W. Hackbusch and U. Trottenberg
The conference, continuing the sequence of conferences in 1981 and 1985,
will again bring together specialists and others with interest in the
general area of multilevel methods.
THEMES of the conference will range from basic research to industrial
applications, with special emphasis on
- adaptivity
- parallel computation
- applications
The following invited lectures will be given:
A. Brandt: General PDE systems at vanishing ellipticity
E. Dick: Multigrid methods for steady Euler- and Navier-Stokes
equations based on polynomial flux-difference splitting
P. W. Hemker: A multigrid approach for the solution of the
two-dimensional semiconductor equations
A. Jameson: to be announced
P. G. Lauwers:Efficient applications of deterministic and stochastic
multilevel methods in the Monte-Carlo simulation of
quantum field theories and models in statistical mechanics
O. McBryan: New developments for parallel multigrid
J. W. Ruge: A multigrid approach for turbulent flow problems
K. Stueben: Parallel multigrid for general, block-structured grids
P. Wesseling: A survey of Fourier smoothing analysis results
H. Yserentant:Fast solvers based on different multi-level splittings
of finite element spaces
Beyond that, more than 70 contributed papers will be presented in
concurrent sessions and in a poster exhibition.
The invited papers and selected contributions will be published as full
papers in the conference proceedings (to appear in the Birkhaeuser
Verlag, Basel).
LOCATION
of the conference will be the Gustav-Stresemann-Institut, situated in
the 'government quarter' of Bonn-Bad Godesberg. All conference
sessions will be held there.
ACCOMODATION AND MEALS
will be provided at the Gustav-Stresemann-Institut (GSI). The prices
for accomodation including meals (full board) are DM 115,- for
1-bed rooms and DM 95,- for 2-bed rooms per person and day. Each type
of accomodation will be available in limited quantities on a first-come,
first-served basis.
Full accomodation starts with dinner on the day of arrival, the last
meal is lunch on Thursday. For participants not staying at the GSI,
meals are available there (lunch for approximately DM 15,-, for

secretariat.
The conference fee is DM 400,- for advanced registration (to be payed by
August 1st) and DM 480,- after August 1st. Confirmation will be given
after receipt of the registration form.
For a limited number of students conference attendance at reduced fee is
possible. Students interested shall send a written proposal to the
conference chairmen.
The fee covers conference material (including a booklet of abstracts),
coffee breaks and the social events.
The registration desk at the GSI will be opened on Sunday, September 30,
4-8 p.m. and during the conference. On Monday, October 1, it opens at 8
a.m.
PAYMENT
of registration fee and accomodation should be made
- by cheque in DM (made payable to GMD, add keyword 'Multigrid Methods'
and name of the participant),
- by money transfer to GMD (bank: Kreissparkasse Siegburg, account No:
072002215, bank code: 38650000, keywords: 'Multigrid Methods',
name of participant)
- or cash in DM on arrival in Bonn.
Add 5% if paid in another currency. Credit cards cannot be excepted.
SOCIAL EVENTS
For participants already arriving at the GSI on Sunday, we will arrange
a buffet dinner to give the opportunity for an informal get-together.
On Monday evening a reception will be given at the
Gustav-Stresemann- Institut.
The conference banquet will be held on Tuesday evening in Schloss
Birlinghoven, GMD. Transportation will be provided from the conference
site.
On Wednesday our social program starts in the afternoon.
We will arrange tours in guided groups to the cities of Bonn and
Cologne (whose histories go back 2000 years).
We are planning different tours:
- 'Bonn-1': tour of the city of Bonn (by bus) - visit of the
Beethovenhaus (Beethoven's birthplace) - piano concert;
- 'Bonn-2': 3-churches-tour in Bonn (by bus) - baroque church -
late-roman basilica - middle-age church - organ concert;
- 'Cologne': trip to Cologne by train (in a group) - gothic cathedral
- roman-germanic museum
Please indicate on the registration form which tour you would like to
join (as non-binding information for us). Details on the social program
will be announced at the beginning of the conference.
