******************************************************************** | THE INTERNATIONAL LINEAR ALGEBRA SOCIETY ( ILAS ) | | ------------------------------------------------------ | | E-mail Address: MAR23AA @ TECHNION (bitnet) | | --------------------------------------------- | | Edited by Danny Hershkowitz | ==================================================================== 25 February 1990 ------------------------ ILAS-NET Message No. 69 ------------------------ CONTRIBUTED ANNOUNCEMENT: FROM: Richard A. Brualdi SUBJECT: Fourth SIAM Conference on Applied Linear Algebra -------------------------------------------------- Preliminary Announcement: Fourth SIAM Triennial Conference on APPLIED LINEAR ALGEBRA The fourth conference will be held on September 16-19, 1991 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The timing and location of the conference has been chosen to coincide with the beginning of the year on Applied Linear Algebra at the Institute for Mathematics and its Applications(IMA) at the University of Minnesota. The conference hotel, the Radisson University Inn, is adjacent to the campus and the IMA and some of the sessions of the conference will be held in the University's new Electrical and Computer Engineering building. The organizing committee consists of: R.A. Brualdi, D. Carlson, G. Cybenko, A. George, G. Golub, R. Horn, J. Lewis, M. Luskin, S. Morgera, G. Styan, and P. van Dooren. The committee has selected a group of eight distinquished scientists to highlight the conference with plenary lectures. They are: A.C. ANTOULAS (Rice University), Matrix functions with applications to systems theory: Interpolation problems. A. BJORCK (Linkoping University), Matrix computations and sparsity issues. M. FIEDLER (Czechoslovakia Academy of Sciences), Combinatorial aspects in matrix theory. I. KAPLANSKY (Mathematical Sciences Research Institute-Berkeley), Basis free methods in linear algebra. C. van LOAN (Cornell University), The design and analysis of block matrix algorithms. G.W. STEWART (University of Maryland), Numerical methods for Markov chains. A. WILLSKY (MIT) Multiresolutional statistical signal processing. M. WRIGHT (A.T.& T. Bell Laboratories), Linear algebra issues in interior methods. The banquet will feature a talk by ALAN HOFFMAN of IBM. Two minisymposia have been invited as "seeds" for suggestions from the linear algebra community for other minisymposia on topics of current interest. They are: Direct Sparse Methods, organized by J. Liu (York University) Abstract Algebra and its Application to Statistical Signal Processing, organized by S. Morgera (McGill University). Suggestions for minisymposia and general inquiries should be directed to: Richard A. Brualdi (brualdi@math.wisc.edu or na.brualdi@na-net.stanford.edu). Postal address is Mathematics Department, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI 53706. --------------------- Reposted by Prof. Kenneth R.
