%%%
%%%                            Metropolis also is known for carrying

%%%                            Metropolis also coined the terms ``Monte

                 computer which has been designed and constructed at the
                 Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory. The construction
                 period dates from June of 1949 to March of 1952, when
                 the first major problem was run. Originally, the
                 intention was to reproduce the computer which was then
                 under development at the Institute for Advanced Study
                 in Princeton, New Jersey. However, it soon became clear
                 that the central problem in computer research --- a
                 suitable storage system --- was a major one, and it
                 seemed advisable to try a separate approach to that
                 solution. Eventually this supplementary development was
                 extended to the other components. Before proceeding
                 with this report, we would like to express our
                 gratitude to Professor John von Neumann and his
                 colleagues at the computer project at the Institute for
                 Advanced Study for the many fruitful and stimulating
                 discussions dating from 1944.",

  abstract =     "Nuclear cascade calculations of the Goldberger type
                 have been performed using the MANIAC electronic
                 computer. A three-dimensional relativistic treatment
                 was used. The target nuclei were Al$^{27}$, Cu$^{64}$,
                 Ru$^{100}$, Ce$^{140}$, Bi$^{209}$, and U$^{238}$.
                 Incident protons and neutrons with energies between 82
                 and 565 Mev have been studied, but meson production was
                 neglected in this energy range. Cascades initiated by
                 about 1000 incident particles were followed in each
                 case. The results have been compared with those of
                 previous calculations of this type, as well as with
                 experimental photographic-plate data and counter
                 measurements reflecting the cascade stage of
                 high-energy nuclear reactions. The agreement with
                 experimental data is usually good. Tables and graphs
                 are presented showing the frequency of occurrence of
                 various residual nuclei, and data on the residual
                 nuclear excitation energy after the cascade are over. A
                 few comparisons with radio-chemical data indicate
                 over-all agreement with the general spallation pattern
                 of copper with 540-Mev protons and good agreement with
                 the Ni$^{64}$(p,n)Cu$^{64}$ reaction over the energy
                 range 100 to 400 Mev. However, the calculated results
                 for the Cu$^{65}$(p,pn)Cu$^{64}$ reaction are low by
                 almost a factor of two, although the energy dependence
                 is approximately correct.",

                 implementation of multi-precision arithmetic is
                 explained; in particular, it is demonstrated that
                 multiprecision division can be effected in a

                 problem in the theory of restricted partitions: What is
                 the number $T_n^{(r)}$ of distinct partitions of the
                 composite integer $nr$ that can be made by partwise
                 addition of $n$-not necessarily distinct-partitions of
                 $r$? The answer is given in the form of a finite series
                 of binomial coefficients multiplied by certain integer
                 coefficients which depend only on $r$. In general the
                 non-vanishing $c_i^{(r)}$ must be determined by direct
                 calculation; the authors give them for all $r < 11$.
                 Several other interpretations of $T_n^{(r)}$ are given,
                 and some additional open questions concerning the
                 interpretation of the results are discussed",

                 by identical nonlinear springs is studied. The
                 equations of motion are expressed in terms of the
                 normal coordinates of the corresponding linear system.
                 Selection rules are developed for interactions among
                 the modes, and the number of interaction terms in the
                 modal equations is reduced by considering the case of a
                 single dominant mode. The equations are considerably
                 simplified by judicious approximation, and their
                 validity checked by direct numerical computation. In
                 terms of the resulting coupled Mathieu equations it is

                 MANIAC and the IAS machine. The conclusions reached
                 are: (1) some of the originators of modern computers
                 were indeed aware of the work of Babbage, but some were
                 not; (2) the stored-program concept was an integral
                 part of the EDVAC design, the result of the work of the
                 ENIAC design team; (3) the term MANIAC was properly

                 Alamos Scientific Laboratory, not to the IAS machine.",

                 degeneracy of a given energy level of an
                 $N$-dimensional isotropic quantum oscillator that is
                 perturbed by an isotropic quartic potential energy
                 term. This problem is solved recursively (in $N$) using
                 the concept of a multiplet, which is a finite set of
                 points in a lattice space $L^N$ whose points are
                 $N$-tuples of integers that sum to zero. The basic

                 important characterization of the solutions to a pair

  abstract =     "The central theme will be on the historical setting
                 and origins of the Monte Carlo Method. The scene was
                 post-war Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory. There was an
                 inevitability about the Monte Carlo Event: the ENIAC
                 had recently enjoyed its meteoric rise (on a classified
                 Los Alamos problem); Stan Ulam had returned to Los
                 Alamos; John von Neumann was a frequent visitor.
                 Techniques, algorithms, and applications developed
                 rapidly at Los Alamos. Soon, the fascination of the
                 Method reached wider horizons. The first paper was
                 submitted for publication in the spring of 1949. In the
                 summer of 1949, the first open conference was held at
                 the University of California at Los Angeles. Of some
                 interest perhaps is an account of Fermi's earlier,
                 independent application in neutron moderation studies
                 while at the University of Rome. The quantum leap
                 expected with the advent of massively parallel
                 processors will provide stimuli for very ambitious
                 applications of the Monte Carlo Method in disciplines
                 ranging from field theories to cosmology, including
                 more realistic models in the neurosciences. A structure
                 of multi-instruction sets for parallel processing is
                 ideally suited for the Monte Carlo approach. One may
                 even hope for a modest hardening of the soft
                 sciences.",

                 Alamos to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the
                 laboratory. This volume contains the papers presented
                 in that meeting. It presents many of the important
                 advances made in physics over the intervening forty
                 years and provides an idea of the possibilities for the
                 future. Among the contributors are eight Nobel
                 Laureates. The contents include: Los Alamos in the
                 1980s; tiny computers obeying quantum mechanical laws;
                 present, and future of nuclear magnetic resonance;
                 experimental evidence that an asteroid impact led to
                 the extinction of many species 65 million years ago;
                 the lunar laboratory; the future of particle
                 accelerators: Post WWII and now; models, hypotheses and
                 approximations; comments on three thermonuclear paths
                 for the synthesis of helium; and the sad augurs mock
                 their own passage; experiments on time reversal
                 symmetry and parity; on the course of our magnetic
                 fusion energy enterprise; early days in the Lawrence
                 Laboratory; nuclear charge distribution in fission;
                 developing larger software systems; reflections on
                 style in physics; tuning up the TPC; remarks on the
                 future of particle physics; supernova theory; how well
                 we meant; history and the hierarchy of structure.",

                 The method is one of decomposing the set of all fixed

                 194: ``What are the architectural consequences of this
                 kind of influence? [of Los Alamos on computer design]
                 One apparent in Stretch is that machine s noisy mode
                 facility (Los Alamos interviews). The inspiration of
                 these was Los Alamos Nicholas Metropolis, who in the
                 1950s developed what he called significance arithmetic:
                 the attempt to determine the consequences, for the
                 reliability of results, of errors caused by the need to
                 represent numbers by words of finite length. In noisy
                 mode the effects of truncation were handled differently
                 from in normal operation so as to allow errors caused
                 by truncation to be detected.

                 By definition of ordinary normalized [floating-point]
                 operations, numbers are frequently extended on the
                 right by attaching zeros. During addition the $n$-digit
                 operand that is not preshifted is extended with n
                 zeros, so as to provide the extra positions to which
                 the preshifted operand can be added. Any operand or
                 result that is shifted left to be normalized requires a
                 corresponding number of zeros to be shifted in at the
                 right. Both sets of zeros tend to produce numbers
                 smaller in absolute value than they would have been if
                 more digits had been carried. In the noisy mode these
                 numbers are simply extended with 1s instead of zeros
                 (1s in a binary machine, 9s in a decimal machine). Now
                 all numbers tend to be too large in absolute value. The
                 true value, if there had been no significance loss,
                 should lie between these two extremes. Hence, two runs,
                 one made without and one made with the noisy mode,
                 should show differences in result that indicate which
                 digits may have been affected by significance loss
                 (Buchholz 1962, p. 102).''",

                 equivalence classes under the operations of conjugacy
                 and reverse complementation is solved by using a
                 surjective mapping to words on two letters of even
                 length. This classification problem for words on four
                 letters arises in the study of DNA sequences. For words
                 on two letters the concept of a lexical word, which is
                 based on a total order relation, allows one to assign a
                 distinguished word to each conjugacy class. The mapping
                 between words on four letters and those on two letters

                 classes of words on four letters. The M{\"o}bius

                 sampling from a posterior distribution. Two important
                 examples are the Gibbs sampler and the Metropolis
                 algorithm. In addition, several strategies are

                 and discusses some related theoretical and practical
                 issues. On the theoretical side, results from the
                 theory of general state space Markov chains can be used
                 to obtain convergence rates, laws of large numbers and
                 central limit theorems for estimates obtained from

                 Laboratory-Directed Research and Development (LDRD)
                 project at the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL).
                 Group theoretical methods are a powerful tool both in
                 their applications to mathematics and to physics. The
                 broad goal of this project was to use such methods to
                 develop the implications of group (symmetry) structures
                 underlying models of physical systems, as well as to
                 broaden the understanding of simple models of chaotic
                 systems. The main thrust was to develop further the
                 complex mathematics that enters into many-particle
                 quantum systems with special emphasis on the new
                 directions in applied mathematics that have emerged and
                 continue to surface in these studies. In this area,
                 significant advances in understanding the role of SU(2)
                 3nj-coefficients in SU(3) theory have been made and in
                 using combinatoric techniques in the study of
                 generalized Schur functions, discovered during this
                 project. In the context of chaos, the study of maps of
                 the interval and the associated theory of words has led
                 to significant discoveries in Galois group theory, to
                 the classification of fixed points, and to the solution
                 of a problem in the classification of DNA sequences.",

                 W. Rosenbluth and M. N. Rosenbluth, and M. Teller and
                 E. Teller [J. Chem. Phys. 21, 1087 (1953)] marked the
                 beginning of the use of the Monte Carlo method for
                 solving problems in the physical sciences. The method
                 described in this publication subsequently became known
                 as the Metropolis algorithm, undoubtedly the most
                 famous and most widely used Monte Carlo algorithm ever
                 published. As none of the authors made subsequent use
                 of the algorithm, they became unknown to the large
                 simulation physics community that grew from this
                 publication and their roles in its development became
                 the subject of mystery and legend. At a conference
                 marking the 50th anniversary of the 1953 publication,
                 Marshall Rosenbluth gave his recollections of the
                 algorithm's development. The present paper describes
                 the algorithm, reconstructs the historical context in
                 which it was developed, and summarizes Marshall's
                 recollections.",

                 television, modern genetics, models of stellar
                 evolution--in other words, computer code. In the 1940s
                 and '50s, a group of eccentric geniuses--led by John
                 von Neumann--gathered at the newly created Institute
                 for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey. Their
                 joint project was the realization of the theoretical
                 universal machine, an idea that had been put forth by
                 mathematician Alan Turing. This group of brilliant
                 engineers worked in isolation, almost entirely
                 independent from industry and the traditional academic
                 community. But because they relied exclusively on
                 government funding, the government wanted its share of
                 the results: the computer that they built also led
                 directly to the hydrogen bomb. George Dyson has
                 uncovered a wealth of new material about this project,
                 and in bringing the story of these men and women and
                 their ideas to life, he shows how the crucial
                 advancements that dominated twentieth-century
                 technology emerged from one computer in one laboratory,
                 where the digital universe as we know it was
