I am interested in evaluations for real valued nu and z. This function was part of an expression generated by Mathematica as the value of an integral, but there is no such function available in that system. I would appreciate references or any information you can provide.

Our software contains implementations of both the Bartels-Stewart method and Hammarling's method. The main features of the codes are: * BLAS/LAPACK-based implementation (good performance, portability) * implementation in FORTRAN77 (portability) * estimation of separation and condition number * scaling to prevent the solution from overflow * solution of the transposed equations without transposing the involved matrices explicitly Manual pages for the main routines and example programs are enclosed. Moreover, there is a preprint providing further information about the methods utilized as well as their implementation. The software and the preprint are available via anonymous ftp at ftp.tu-chemnitz.de from the directory /pub/Local/mathematik/Penzl where the compressed files dglp.tar.Z (Bartels-Stewart method: subroutines, manual page, example) dglphm.tar.Z (Hammarling's method: subroutines, manual page, example) lyapunov.ps.Z (postscript version of the abovementioned preprint) can be found.

A forum has been establish to consider expanding the BLAS in a number of directions in light of modern software, language, and hardware developments. On February 19-20, 1996 we held a BLAST Forum meeting in Nashville. The minutes from that meeting are available on the BLAST Forum homepage: http://www.netlib.org/utk/papers/blast-forum.html We are planning another meeting of the Forum on May 20-22 in Atlanta. If you would like to contribute to this ongoing discussion specific details can be found in the BLAST Forum homepage.

Biswa Nath Datta ------------------------------ From: Janos Pinter Date: Tue, 5 Mar 1996 09:58:36 -0400 (AST) Subject: New Book on Global Optimization NEW BOOK IN APPLIED NUMERICAL ANALYSIS AND OPTIMIZATION TITLE: Global Optimization in Action (Continuous and Lipschitz Optimization: Algorithms, Implementations and Applications) AUTHOR: Janos D. Pinter (pinter@tuns.ca) PUBLISHER: Kluwer Academic Publishers (kluwer.wkap.com) SUMMARY In sciences, engineering, and economics, decision problems are frequently modelled by optimizing the value of a (primary) objective function, under stated feasibility constraints. In many cases of practical relevance, the optimization problem structure does not warrant the global optimality of solutions found by local scope search approaches. Since the number and quality of the local solutions is typically unknown, there is a strong rationality for seeking the globally best solution(s). The present volume provides a comprehensive discussion of adaptive parti- tion strategies to solve global optimization problems under very general structural requirements. A unified aproach to numerous known algorithms makes possible their straightforward generalizations and extensions, with a view towards efficient implementations. A considerable part of the book is devoted to various applications. These include some generic problems in numerical analysis, and several case studies in engineering and environmental systems analysis and management. AUDIENCE: professors, students, researchers and other professionals from the fields of operations research, management science, industrial and ap- plied mathematics, computer science, economics, engineering and environ- mental sciences.

Lebedev, I.I. Vorovich (Dept. of Math.& Mech., Rostov SUniv., Russia) G.M.L. Gladwell (Dept. of Civ.Eng., University of Waterloo, Canada) In series: SOLID MECHANICS AND ITS APPLICATIONS, vol. 41 Kluwer Academic Publishers, Dordrecht; 248 pp. , ISBN: 0-7923-3849-9 This is a book for people who want to use functional analysis to justify approximate methods in Mechanics and Inverse Problems. It provides such researchers with the tools they need without having to assimilate or skip through concepts they do not need. For the applied mathematician the essential difficulty attending the study of functional analysis is that the pure mathematicians who have developed the field have carried the process of abstraction to increasingly higher levels. In this book the authors have kept the level of abstraction high enough for the majority of applications, and have resisted the temptation to abstract to the limit. ------------------------------ From: SIAM Date: Tue, 05 Mar 96 16:27:42 EST Subject: Electronic Submissions to SIAM Journal on Optimization SIAM and the SIAM Journal on Optimization (SIOPT) are pleased to announce that SIOPT is now accepting electronic manuscript submissions in the form of PostScript files. Detailed instructions and further information can be obtained on SIAM's World Wide Web server (http://www.siam.org/esubs/esubs.htm) or by e-mail request from siopt@siam.org. This foray into electronic submissions is considered an experiment and is therefore limited in scope. Currently, the SIAM Journal on Optimization is the only SIAM journal accepting electronic submissions. However, once our procedures have been tested, we hope to allow electronic submissions on our other journals. Please stay tuned. Please visit SIAM's World Wide Web server (http://www.siam.org) or send e-mail to journals@siam.org for more information about the SIAM Journal on Optimization or other SIAM journals. ------------------------------ From: Allison Bogardo Date: Mon, 04 Mar 96 10:32:24 EST Subject: SIAM Student Paper Prizes The annual SIAM Student Paper Prizes will be awarded during the 1996 SIAM Annual Meeting.

The project is supported by the Netherlands Technology Foundation (STW). The research concerns the development of numerical solution methods for linear and non-linear problems which work efficiently on parallel computers. The best methods will be implemented first in a pilot version primarily for a network of workstations. Later the methods will be implemented in a product version of the f.e. software package DIANA at TNO Building Constructions Research at Rijswijk and applied for very large scale problems arising in material science research. The method development takes place at the Numerical Analysis group at the University of Nijmegen, while the implementation and validation takes place at TNO. Required experience The successful candidate should have a university degree in Mathematics or Computer Science with documented knowledge of the finite element method. Experience as a programmer for high performence computers is an additional plus. Employment conditions The employment takes place in the form of a temporary position (max 4 years) at NWO (Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research). The salary for the first year is 2091,- brut per month and increases to 3734,- in the fourth year. Female candidates are encouraged to apply. Further information: Call prof. A.O.H. Axelsson, tel (024)3653231 or e-mail, axelsson@sci.kun.nl The written application with a curriculum vitae and copies of diplomas should be sent within two weeks to Faculty of Mathematics and Informatics, afd.
