Subject: BGCE student prize in CSE awarded to Alfonso Bueno Orovio

Alfonso Bueno Arovio of Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha in Spain has been
awarded the 2007 BGCE student prize in Computational Science and Engineering
at the SIAM CSE conference, February 23, 2007, in Costa Mesa, California.

For the competition, thirteen short papers had been submitted from seven
countries, from which eight students were invited to present their work at the
conference. The student presentations covered a wide range of topics in
computational science and engineering on a impressively high academic level
and were all presented with near perfection, making the selection for the
prize committee (consisting of D. Donnelly, T. Kolda, H. Bungartz, U. Ruede)
extremely difficult, but also very enjoyable.

The winner was selected, because his presentation on the "Extension of
Spectral Methods to Irregular Domains Via a Fictitious Domain Approach"
included all the ingredients of advanced computational science and
engineering: the development of innovative computational techniques and
methods for a challenging and important real-life application in
science. Though the method presented is widely applicable, Alfonso had
developed it specifically for the simulation of the electrophysiology of the
heart. His work also included the careful implementation in 3D and impressive
visualizations.

The six other students participating as finalists with their presentations
were: Weigang Zhong (U Maryland), J. Rosam (U Leeds, UK), Fang Fang (TU Delft,
NL), Taeyoung Lee (U of Michigan), Won-Ki Jeong (U Utah), Robert Shuttleworth
(U Maryland). The prize committee congratulates all of the finalists for their
impressive accomplishments.

The Bavarian Graduate School of Computational Engineering (BGCE) is a
consortium of two universities in Bavaria (Germany), the TU Munich and the
University of Erlangen offering a joint International Master Program in
Computational Engineering (http://www.bgce.de/). The prize consists of an
invitation to visit Bavaria and the two universities of the BGCE for one week
in summer 2007.

SIAM Annual Meeting. Recipients also receive $500 toward travel
expenses and gratis registration for the meeting.

Eligibility is restricted to students in good standing who do not yet
hold the degree of PhD on the application deadline. Papers entered in
the competition must have already been submitted for publication.
Submissions may be based on co-authored papers. Instructions on how to
submit a paper and other required documents can be found at
www.siam.org/prizes/nominations/nom_student.php.

All papers and accompanying documentation must be received at the SIAM

Subject: Data-Parallel Programming Models Workshop at CGO, March 11, 2007

Matthew Papakipos, founder and chief technology officer of PeakStream, Inc.,
along with Anwar Ghuloum of Intel's Programming Systems Lab, will be leading a
workshop, "Data-Parallel Programming Models for Many-Core Architectures,"
examining emerging programming models for leveraging multi-core processors for
high performance computing at the 2007 International Symposium on Code
Generation and Optimization (CGO) in San Jose, Ca. This workshop will gather
commercial and academic researchers, vendors and users of data-parallel
programming platforms to discuss implementation experiences and techniques for
a broad range of multi-core architectures while discussing the future
direction of programming-models. It will examine the inherent shortcomings and
difficulties with automatic parallelization and manual parallel programming
models that are creating enormous programmer productivity problems. It will
also explore the factors making emerging models for parallel programming
extremely attractive.

This workshop will be held from 8:00 am - 12:00 pm PST on Saturday March 11,
2007. For more information, visit

SIAM J. Scientific Computing
Special Issue on
Computational Science & Engineering

Guest Editors-in-Chief:
Chris Johnson
University of Utah

David Keyes
Columbia University

Ulrich Ruede
Universitaet Erlangen-Nuernberg

Call for papers: Many CS&E problems can be characterized by a "pipeline" that
includes Modeling techniques (mathematical and geometric), Simulation
techniques (discretizations, algorithms, data structures, software frameworks,
and problem solving environments), and Analysis techniques (data mining, data
management, visualization, and error, sensitivity, stability, and uncertainty
analyses).

The guest editors are seeking cutting edge research papers that present a
contribution to the development of novel computational methods for problems of
the real world and describe several aspects of the CS&E pipeline involved in
solving the problem. Papers should illustrate new and useful techniques and
tools for handling realistic problems, which often have complicated three-
dimensional geometries, multiple scales, heterogeneities, anisotropies, and
multi-physical or biological descriptions. Though such problem domains often
thwart proofs of accuracy or efficiency, papers should address validation and
verification through reduction to analyzable cases and convergence studies, as
applicable, and comparisons with alternative approaches.

Deadline: The deadline for submission of papers is April 30, 2007.

This issue seeks papers that address alternative measures of uncertainty
(probability vs. possibility vs. Dempster-Shafer vs. rough sets ...)
and/or alternative modeling paradigms (mean-risk vs. recourse vs.
chance-constrained vs. regret vs. robust ...). The underlying problem is
one with which operations research (OR) is concerned. The results may be
algorithmic, or they may be about a model formulation and its scope for
decision support.

Please let other potential authors know about this. A formatted version
of this announcement is posted at
