Mathematical Sciences: Research Experiences in Parallel Numerical Linear Algebra

该计划旨在汇集来自全国各地的学院和大学的8名非常聪明的本科生，那里很少或根本没有本科生研究的机会。 参加者将有机会学习如何进行数学和计算科学的研究，他们将参与数值线性代数和并行计算研究项目。 活动包括线性代数数值算法的教学和实验室经验，并行编程语言，学习如何使用多计算机（32处理器Intel iPSC/860，使用MPI编程环境的SUN工作站网络），文献综述，并行算法的设计及其在多计算机上的实现，研究成果的介绍。 今年夏天的节目从1997年5月30日开始，持续8周。 参加者返回本国机构后可继续进行研究，并准备一份报告。 在过去，学生们在UMR，一个国家本科生研究会议，并在年度阿贡研讨会本科生做了演讲。

The program is designed to bring together 8 very bright undergraduates from colleges and universities throughout the country, where there is little or no opportunity for undergraduate research. Participants will be given an opportunity to learn how to do research in mathematical and computational sciences and they will be involved in numerical linear algebra and parallel computing research projects. Activities include instruction and laboratory experience in numerical algorithms for linear algebra, parallel programming languages, learning how to use a multicomputer (32-processor Intel iPSC/860, network of SUN workstations using MPI programming environment), literature review, design of parallel algorithms and their implementation on the multicomputer, presentation of research results. The program this summer begins May 30, 1997 and lasts 8 weeks. The participants may continue on their research when they return to their home institutions and prepare a paper for presentation. In the past, students have made presentations at UMR, a national undergraduate research conference, and at the Annual Argonne Symposium for Undergraduates.
