Conference on Computational Linear Algebra with Application

这笔赠款将资助大约十名美国科学家参加将于2002年8月在捷克共和国举行的计算线性代数及其应用会议。这次会议的主题在许多科学和工程领域都具有基础性的重要性。特别是，会议的主题涉及在工业和制造建模、化学加工、材料科学和流体流动模拟方面遇到的问题。这次会议是以1997年6月在同一地点举行的非常成功的美国-捷克迭代方法和并行计算研讨会为蓝本举行的。与上次会议一样，预计将有来自几个东欧和中欧国家的许多科学家出席，他们很少有机会前往美国。参加这次会议将使美国科学家能够向观众介绍他们的研究成果，并第一手了解东欧和前苏联国家的最新发展。预计会议将促进新的合作项目。优先资助高级研究生和青年科学家的入学。

This grant will fund the participation of about ten United States scientists at a Conference on Computational Linear Algebra with Applications to be held in the Czech Republic in August 2002. The theme of the conference is of basic importance in many areas of science and engineering. In particular, the topics of the conference address problems encountered in industrial and manufacturing modeling, chemical processing, material sciences, and simulation of fluid flows. The meeting is modeled after a very successful U.S.-Czech Workshop on Iterative Methods and Parallel Computing at the same location in June 1997. As at the last meeting, attendance is expected from many scientists from several Eastern and Central European countries who rarely have a chance to travel to the United States. Participation in this conference will allow U.S. scientists to present their research to this audience, and to learn first-hand about recent developments in Eastern Europe and countries of the former Soviet Union. It is expected that the meeting will foster new collaborative projects. Priority will be given to funding the attendance of advanced graduate students and young scientists.
