International Conference on Spectral & High Order Methods 1998

DMS 9727879届光谱和高阶方法国际会议，1998年ICOSAHOM98将是第四届光谱和高阶方法国际会议。前三次会议分别于1989年6月在意大利科莫、1992年6月在法国蒙彼利埃和1995年6月在得克萨斯州休斯顿举行。ICOSAHOM每三年一次，在光谱和高阶方法领域发挥了国际协调中心的作用，会议及其会议记录已被证明对积极开发新算法的研究人员以及那些实施高阶方法来解决科学家和工程师感兴趣的现实问题的研究人员至关重要。这次会议的目的是将对高阶和谱方法的理论、应用和计算方面感兴趣的研究人员聚集在一起。内容包括但不限于谱方法、高阶有限差分和有限元方法、h-p有限元方法和基于小波的偏微分方程组求解方法。应用包括电磁学、流体和结构动力学问题、用于高阶方法的高效求解器和预条件以及谱方法和高阶方法的并行方面。预计与会者将包括来自许多其他领域的物理学家、数学家、科学家和工程师，他们涉及并利用光谱和高阶方法。

DMS 9727879 International Conference on Spectral and High Order Methods, 1998 ICOSAHOM98 will be the fourth International Conference On Spectral And High Order Methods. The first three meetings were held in Como, Italy in June 1989, Montpellier France in June 1992 and Houston Texas in June 1995. With a frequency of three years ICOSAHOM has played the role of an international focal point in the field of spectral and high order methods and the conference and its proceedings have proven to be essential to researchers active in developing new algorithms as well as those that implement high order methods to solve realistic problems of interest to scientists and engineers. The objective of the conference is to bring together researchers with interest in the theoretical, applied and computational aspects of high order and spectral methods. Subjects include, but are not limited to, spectral methods, high-order finite difference and finite element methods, h-p finite element methods and wavelet based methods for the solution of partial differential equations. Applications include electromagnetics, fluid and structural dynamics problems, efficient solvers and preconditioners for high order methods and parallel aspects of spectral and high order methods. It is anticipated that the participants will include physicists, mathematicians, scientists and engineers from many other areas involving and utilizing spectral and high order methods.
