Re: Advances in Numerical Methods for Large Sparse Sets of Lin Eqs.
12 April 1991

ABSTRACT. Titles of papers presented at "Advances in Numerical Methods 
for Large Sparse Sets of Linear Equations", Keio University, 1 March 
1991 are given. 

These papers were presented in Japanese. However some papers are
available in English. For information about these contact the organizer,
        Dr. Takashi Nodera
        Dept of Mathematics
        Keio University
        3-14-1 Hiyoshi Kohoku
        Yokohama 223 Japan
        Tel: +81-44-63-1141 ext 3762
        Email: NODERA@MATH.KEIO.AC.JP

The first three papers, about special function properties are from
U-Tsukuba. That group is led by
        Professor Yasuhiko Ikebe
        Institute of Information Sciences and Electronics,
        University of Tsukuba,
        Tsukuba City, Ibaraki 305.
        Tel: +81 298-53-5535 (O), -5187 (S)
        Email: IKEBE@GAMA.IS.TSUKUBA.AC.JP

Interesting work on extensions of conjugate gradient are being done by 
        Dr. Shun Doi
        Information Basic Res.Lab.,
        C&C Information Tech.Res.Labs.,
        NEC Corporation,
        4-1-1, Miyazaki, Miyamae-ku, Kawasaki 213, Japan
        DOI@IBL.CL.NEC.CO.JP
who is an author of two papers presented here.

PAX is one of the longest running distributed memory projects in Japan
(since 1970s), and one of the few machines in the world for performing
quantum chromodynamics (another is at Columbia). Algorithms for linear
equations on PAX are described by a student of
        Professor Yoshio Oyanagi
        Institute of Information Sciences
        University of Tsukuba
        Tennodai 1-1-1, Tsukuba, 305, Japan
        Tel: +81 298-53-5518, -5449, Fax: +81 298-53-5206
        Email: OYANAGI@IS.TSUKUBA.AC.JP
Oyanagi will be moving to the University of Tokyo this year, but this 
address should be usable for a while.
