The investigator and his colleagues organize the 2001 John H. Barrett Memorial Lectures in the University of Tennessee at Knoxville from May 10-12, 2001. The Barrett Lectures have been held annually since 1972. Each year a different topic is chosen, representing the research interests of the mathematics faculty of the University of Tennessee. Since 1993, the lectures have consisted of threeone-hour survey talks by each of three leading researchersrepresenting different themes/directions in a single field. The topic of the 2001 Barrett Lectures is: ``New Directions and Developments in Computational Mathematics". The focus of the lectures is parallel numerical algorithms for partial differential equations and their implementations and applications. The main speakers of the 2001 Barrett Lectures are Jinchao Xu of Penn State University, David Keyes of Old Dominion University and ICASE, and Mary Wheeler of University of Texas at Austin. Each of them will deliver three one-hour survey lectures on recent developments on parallel numerical algorithms with three different emphases: theory (Xu), computer implementation (Keyes), and application (Wheeler). In addition to the main speakers, sixspeakers are also invited to give one-hour talks on topics related to one of the main lectures.The Barrett Lectures are partly funded by a grant from Tennessee Science Alliance, and have often received additional support from the National Science Foundation. They attract wide interest, with an audience of between 40 and 50 participants from the whole country, in addition to faculty and students from Knoxville and the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. They represent one of the few long standing lecture series in mathematics in the southeastern United States. The main objective of the 2001 Barrett Lectures is to provide the participants with an exposition of parallel numerical algorithms for partial differential equations arising from various scientific/engineering/industrial applications, through in-depth surveylectures and informal discussions with the above three leading researchers in the field. Additional goals are to foster interdisciplinary collaboration, particularly with researchers in the Computer Science Department and in the College of Engineering at the University of Tennessee and several other southeastern institutions, and to generate a set of written surveys in the subject, which the organizing committee will endeavor to have published in book form. The fund being requested from the NSF will be spentproviding partial support towards travel and accommodation for $20$ graduatestudents and recent Ph.D.'s who do not have research grants.

研究者和他的同事们组织了2001年的约翰·H.巴雷特纪念讲座在田纳西大学诺克斯维尔从2001年5月10日至12日。巴雷特讲座自1972年以来每年举行一次。每年都会选择一个不同的主题，代表田纳西大学数学系的研究兴趣。自1993年以来，讲座由三位代表同一领域不同主题/方向的主要研究人员每人进行三次一小时的调查讲座组成。2001年巴雷特讲座的主题是：“计算数学的新方向和发展”。讲座的重点是偏微分方程的并行数值算法及其实现和应用。2001年巴雷特讲座的主要演讲人是宾夕法尼亚州立大学的徐金超、老自治领大学和ICASE的大卫凯斯和德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校的玛丽惠勒。他们每个人都将提供三个一小时的调查讲座上的并行数值算法的最新发展与三个不同的重点：理论（徐），计算机实现（凯斯）和应用（惠勒）。除了主讲人外，还邀请六位主讲人就其中一个主要讲座的相关主题进行一小时的讲座。巴雷特讲座部分由田纳西科学联盟资助，并经常得到国家科学基金会的额外支持。除了来自诺克斯维尔和橡树岭国家实验室的教师和学生外，他们还吸引了来自全国40至50名参与者的广泛兴趣。他们代表了在美国东南部的数学为数不多的长期存在的讲座系列之一。2001年巴雷特讲座的主要目的是通过深入调查讲座和与上述三位在该领域的主要研究人员的非正式讨论，为与会者提供一个从各种科学/工程/工业应用中产生的偏微分方程并行数值算法的阐述。其他目标是促进跨学科合作，特别是与计算机科学系和田纳西大学工程学院以及其他几个东南部机构的研究人员，并在该主题中生成一套书面调查，组委会将奋进以书籍形式出版。从NSF申请的资金将用于为20美元的研究生和最近的博士生提供部分旅行和住宿支持。没有研究赠款的人
