Subject: Help with Divergence-free Interpolation Requested

Can anyone assist with freeware and/or algorithms for taking a
discretely divergence-free velocity field, and interpolating this to a
continuously divergence-free velocity field. The problem arises when
taking a 2-D velocity field from a finite-volume method and using it to
track fluid particles to determine Poincare sections. It would seem
that the interpolation schemes I've tried (BVIP, srfpack) are not
divergence-free, and the particle paths spiral onto attractors that
aren't physical.

All pointers gratefully received.

Subject: Experimental Datasets from Chemical Thermodynamics

Hi,

I have been working for quite awhile with the treatment of experimental
results in chemical thermodynamics. I have tried to organize my
archives and make them available for others:

http://evgenii.rudnyi.ru/doc/misc/ExperimentalDatasets.html

There are several experimental datasets in computer readable format and
I hope that they can be used as useful benchmarks for data fitting and
nonlinear optimization. Experimental values have been collected from
original research papers describing experimental results. All case
studies are reasonably well documented in my papers.

The problem is essentially usual data fitting, however chemical
thermodynamics adds several interesting features:

a) A dataset comprises several heterogeneous experiments.

b) The difference between different experiments is greater than the
reproducibility error because, as one could expect, there are
inevitable systematic errors.

c) Sometimes, computation of a residual cannot be done analytically but
instead requires a numerical solution of another numerical problem by
itself.

The link above contains a short description and links to five datasets:
1) Vaporization of KCl, 2) The Ba-Cu System, 3) The Cu-Y System, 4)
Thermodynamics of Calcium Aluminates, 5) Thermodynamics of YBa2Cu3O6+z.

Best wishes,

Who has the best parallel programmers???

Announcing the First HPCS Parallel Programming Contest

Graduate and undergraduate students are the future of research in the
computational sciences. In these exciting times for HPC, it is
especially necessary to mentor and encourage the next generation of
HPC-enabled research scientists.

The First HPCS Programming Contest provides graduate and undergraduate
students in the computational sciences with the opportunity to
demonstrate their problem-solving, parallel programming and teamwork
skills in a competitive but supportive environment. The contest
provides a platform for HPCS, C3, academia and industry to encourage
students and focus public attention on the next generation of high
performance computation professionals.

The contest will be limited to 10 teams. Each team is to be composed of
two students (either graduate or undergraduate). The two students will
pair program a set of four HPC problems. The time limit is 4 hours.
The results will be evaluated for correctness, efficiency, and elegance.
The four problems will span the range of problems typically encountered
in an HPC environment.

The programming environment will be the following:
- an Alpha cluster of 108 CPUs running RH Linux
- a Quadrics interconnect
- LSF scheduler
- mpich (version 1.1)
- gcc compiler

The contest will be held during HPCS 2005 at the University of Guelph,
Guelph, Ontario. It will take place on Monday, May 16 from 1PM to 5PM.
Conference registration for the participants is encouraged but not
required.

Prizes for the winning teams will be presented at the HPCS 2005 banquet
on Tuesday, May 17.

Registration is open until May 1, 2005 or until the team limit has been
reached.

To register online for the contest, go to the main HPCS 2005 website,
http://www.sharcnet.ca/events/hpcs2005
and provide the following information:
* name, affiliation (department, university), programme
(undergraduate, graduate) and email address for each team member
* name, affiliation (department, university) and email for a
faculty member who will "sponsor" the team. Note: the faculty member
only has to vouch for the accuracy of the supplied information about the
team members, they do not have to coach, financially sponsor or attend

Subject: Conference in Vancourver in Honour of Bob Russell

International Conference in Vancouver, British Columbia
Wednesday, August 3, 2005 to Saturday, August 6, 2005.
Adaptivity and Beyond:
Computational Methods for Solving Differential Equations

In honour of Robert D. Russell and in celebration of his 30th (base 20)
birthday.

www.pims.math.ca/science/2005/05adaptive/
<http://www.pims.math.ca/science/2005/05adaptive/>

The theme of the conference is Adaptive computational methods for
differential equations. Adaptation has now become fundamental to the
numerically solving differential equations (DEs) arising from science
and engineering. It has been amply demonstrated that significant
improvements in accuracy and efficiency can be gained by adapting the
computation to the physical solution or some other important quantities
of the DEs in consideration. An important area of adaptive computation
has also proven to be important for many other computational problems
related to DEs, including approximation of invariant sets such as
invariant tori, inertial manifolds, or connecting orbits that describe
the long time behavior of the solution.

During the last three decades, significant progress has been made in
adaptive computation of DEs. Adaptive computation is now an established
area of intensive research activities which finds its motivation and
application in many areas of science and engineering. It is also a
rapidly changing area and one in need of development of more robust and
reliable adaptation strategies and better understanding of the basic
principles behind them.

Bob Russell has made many groundbreaking contributions to the field, and
it is a special privilege to dedicate this conference to Dr Russell in
celebration of his 60th birthday.

The meeting will be held at the PanPacific Hotel
(http://vancouver.panpacific.com/) in Vancouver, British Columbia. The
conference is organised and sponsored by the Pacific Institute for the
Mathematical Sciences (www.pims.math.ca <http://www.pims.math.ca/>) with
additional support from Simon Fraser University (www.sfu.ca
<http://www.sfu.ca/>), the Department of Mathematics at SFU
(www.math.sfu.ca <http://www.math.sfu.ca/>), the Centre for Scientific
Computing at SFU (www.csc.sfu.ca <http://www.csc.sfu.ca/>) and NSERC
Discovery grants.

2005 Summer Student Opportunities at GlaxoSmithKline
Scientific Computing and Mathematical Modeling

The Scientific Computing and Mathematical Modeling group at
GlaxoSmithKline seeks talented advanced undergraduate and graduate
students in applied mathematics, mathematical biology, computational
systems biology, and computer science for Summer 2005.

The Scientific Computing and Mathematical Modeling (SCMM) group applies
mathematical and computational techniques to a variety of challenging
problems in pharmaceutical research. Our group works on mathematical
models related to the biology of disease states and drug interventions,
the chemistry and physics of drug formulations and delivery devices, and
the structure and network characteristics of large biochemical pathways in
cells. In addition, we develop sophisticated computational tools that are
used to build and calibrate mathematical models. This involves model
formulation, efficient numerical solutions, processing large quantities of
experimental data, and visualizing the results of model-generated
computational experiments.

Possible projects in computer science include implementing optimization
algorithms, developing tools for parallel computations, and developing
graphical representations of pathways and pathway properties. Projects for
students with an applied mathematics background include development of
network analysis tools, analysis of metabolic pathway simulation
algorithms, development of optimization algorithms, and stability analysis
of dynamical systems. Other projects involving mathematical modeling and
computational biology may involve bone remodeling, blood coagulation and
receptor mediated signal transduction processes involved in cancer and
inflammation.

We seek mature, motivated self-starters who can successfully integrate
sophisticated mathematics and computer software with real-world biological
problems. All students are expected to have graduate-level expertise in
the area directly related to their summer project. This typically requires
advanced training and experience in at least one of the following areas:
mathematical biology, scientific computing, mathematical modeling,
numerical analysis and optimization, differential equations and
computational systems biology. All students must be proficient in at least
one programming language, preferably Matlab. Students with a computer
science background are expected to be familiar with parallel programming
techniques. Students with an applied mathematics background are expected
to have graduate-level expertise in areas such as optimization and
numerical analysis, graph theory, and stability analysis. Students
interested in computational biology projects are expected to have prior
experience in developing mathematical models of biological processes.
While the ability to work autonomously is desired, the student will have
the opportunity to interact with a larger team composed of other
computational scientists and R&D researchers under the guidance of an SCMM
mentor. The internship positions may be located at our facilities in the
Philadelphia area, Research Triangle Park, NC, or near London in the UK.

Applicants can apply through our website:
