Copper Mountain Conferences on Iterative Methods

Copper Mountain Conference on Iterative Methods，Copper Mountain，科罗拉多，2014年4月6日至4月11日。该提案的目的是支持20名学生和10名妇女、博士后、少数民族和残疾人参加2014年铜山迭代方法会议。从1983年开始，在多重网格方法（奇数年）和迭代方法（偶数年）之间交替，两个程序中有大量且不断增长的重叠，该系列是这两个密切相关领域交流思想的重要论坛。会议将继续促进学生高度参与的既定传统，并进一步努力促进数学科学代表性不足的群体成员的参与。该提案是支持这些群体的差旅和当地费用，促进平等主义结构，不邀请演讲者，所有演讲长度相同，继续组织教程和主题晚间研讨会，并鼓励来自学术界的参与者的广泛代表性，国家实验室，迭代方法和多级算法对于在所有领域开发有效的模拟至关重要，科学技术该系列会议涉及这些方法的各个方面，包括收敛分析的传统技术，数学软件的实现和开发，以及在新环境中使用这些想法，包括先进的计算机体系结构和新的应用。在以往成功的基础上，该计划将在招募学生、女性和少数民族参与者方面发挥积极作用。这种支持将对科学和技术产生重大影响，因为对于在这些重要领域中执行的许多模拟，迭代求解器控制了整体计算时间并限制了能力。随着模拟的复杂性不断增加，对更有效的求解器的需求变得越来越迫切。本次会议将促进高效迭代求解器的开发，并将其传播给行业和国家实验室的用户。此外，学生和其他青年科学家的持续高水平参与将创造和培养一个欢迎进入该领域的研究人员和从业人员社区。http://grandmaster.colorado.edu/~copper/2014/

Copper Mountain Conference on Iterative Methods, Copper Mountain, Colorado, April 6 -- April 11, 2014. The purpose of this proposal is to support the participation of 20 students and 10 women, post docs, minorities, and disabled in the 2014 Copper Mountain Conference on Iterative Methods. Begun in 1983 and alternating between Multigrid Methods (odd-numbered years) and Iterative Methods (even-numbered years), with substantial and growing overlap in both programs, this series is an important forum for exchange of ideas in these two closely related fields. The meeting will continue to promote the established tradition of a very high level of student participation and to increase efforts to promote participation by members of groups underrepresented in the mathematical sciences. The proposal is to support travel and local expenses for these groups, to foster an egalitarian structure with no invited speakers and all talks of equal length, to continue to organize tutorials and themed evening workshops, and to encourage broad representation of participants from academia, national labs, and industry.Iterative methods and multilevel algorithms are of critical importance for the development of efficient simulations in all domains of science and technology. The conference series is concerned with all aspects of these methods, including traditional techniques of convergence analysis, implementation and development of mathematical software, and use of such ideas in new settings, including advanced computer architectures and new applications. Building on previous success, the plan is to take a proactive role in recruiting students and female and minority participants. This support will have significant impact on science and technology because, for many simulations performed in these important fields, iterative solvers dominate overall calculation time and constrain capabilities. As simulations continue to grow in complexity, the need for more effective solvers becomes increasingly acute. This conference will facilitate the development of efficient iterative solvers and their dissemination to users in industry and national labs. Moreover, the continued high level of participation of students and other young scientists will create and nurture a community of researchers and practitioners who are welcomed to the field.Conference web page:http://grandmaster.colorado.edu/~copper/2014/
