Industrial days at CERFACS on Inner-Outer iterations
Numerical quality of software coupling

September 11--12, 2000
CERFACS, Toulouse, France

Keynote speaker:  Prof. G. Golub, Stanford.
Invited speakers:  Prof. S. Hammarling, Nag, Oxford.
                                   Prof. A. Griewank, Dresden.

Embedded iterative solvers are ubiquitous in numerical simulation. There
is a great need by industry for better control of inner-outer iterations
These two industrial days will give an opportunity for the industrial
and academic representatives to review the state-of-the-art
and define together promising research directions for embedded solvers.

Scientific committee:
CERFACS: F. Chaitin-Chatelin, I.S. Duff, V. Frayssé, L. Giraud, E. Traviesas.
Industry: J.-C. Berges (CNES), Ph. Homsi (Aerospatiale-Matra), J.-L. Vaudescal (EDF).

Local arrangements: B. Yzel and E. Traviesas.

Registration fees: (covering lunches and coffee breaks)
     early registration: 400 FF or 60.98 Euros (before August 27 th)
     late registrations:  600 FF or 91.47 Euros

Registration forms:   electronic registration   (via web)   or   ASCII file   (for mail or fax registration).
