U.S.-European Symposium on Numerical Algebra; June, 1996; Pontresina, Switzerland

该奖项支持10名美国研究生和新近获得博士学位的学生参加将于1996年6月在瑞士彭特雷西纳举行的跨大西洋数学研讨会。研讨会由马里兰大学的Diane O‘Leary教授和苏黎世瑞士联邦理工学院的沃尔特·甘德和马丁·古特克内赫特共同组织，并得到了由其他几名欧洲、美国和加拿大专家组成的项目委员会的协助。会议的主题是数值代数的最新进展，特别关注在信号处理和控制、并行计算、图像处理和各种工业问题中的应用。会议的目的是将世界上在数值代数的理论和应用方面最活跃的一些研究人员与有前途的新人聚集在一起，以便在该领域的前沿促进密切的个人互动和思想交流。研究生将被邀请谈论他们的工作。会议组织者强调在与世隔绝的地点创造非正式气氛，以便促进与会者之间的小组讨论和个人讨论。通过这个NSF奖项，确保有前途的初级美国研究人员参与这一充满活力的领域，将使他们能够与美国以外该领域的领军人物建立个人联系，并获得在其职业生涯中应被证明具有专业价值的国际联系。

This award supports the participation of ten U.S. graduate students and recent PhD's in an Trans-Atlantic mathematics workshop to be held in Pontresina, Switzerland, in June 1996. The workshop is co-organized by Professor Diane O'Leary of the University of Maryland and local host organizers Walter Gander and Martin Gutknecht of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, with the assistance of a program committee comprised of several other European, US and Canadian experts. The topic of the meeting is recent advances in numerical algebra, with particular attention to applications in signal processing and control, parallel computation, image processing and various industrial problems. The purpose of the meeting is to bring together some of the world's most active researchers in the theoretical as well as applied aspects of numerical algebra, together with promising newcomers, in order to foster close personal interaction and exchange of ideas at the leading edge of the field. Graduate students will be included among those invited to talk about their work. Meeting organizers emphasize the creation of an informal atmosphere in an isolated location in order to facilitate small group and personal discussions among the participants. Ensuring the participation of promising junior US researchers in this dynamic field through this NSF award will enable them to establish personal contact with leading minds in the field outside of the US, and gain international contacts that should prove to be professionally valuable in their careers.
