The Intel fair has a separate section for Mathematics projects, including numerical and computational projects. Some of the projects are of publication quality and it is a challenge to rank them. Judging is done by a group of professional mathematicians who volunteer their time, only some of whom are familiar with computational math. Ranking is particularly difficult because some projects include proofs of new results in fields such as number theory that are accessible at the high- school level while other projects present interesting approaches to hard problems using home computers as computational platforms, but without the traditional theorem/proof structure. It is often challenging to convince the group of judges that an innovative numerical project without proofs is of quality comparable with the proof of a novel theoretical result. I am asking for input in devising judging criteria that would help rank a novel numerical or computational project without complete proofs as comparable with a project containing a proof of a novel theoretical result. ------------------------------------------------------- From: Markus Blatt [log in to unmask] Date: November 23, 2016 Subject: OPM release 2016.10 We are pleased to announce the availability of OPM release 2016.10! The "Open Porous Media Initiative" (OPM) coordinates collaborative software development, maintains and distributes open-source software and open data sets under free licenses (GPLv3+). The OPM software contains various solver for porous media flow (IMPES, two-phase incompressible transport, a reordering-based two-phase polymer solver, and a parallel fully implicit black-oil solver). In addition solvers for flow-based upscaling of both both permeability (single-phase upscaling) and relative permeability (two-phase upscaling), including capability for steady-state upscaling are included. Together with the software we ship various SPE test data sets, and the data of the Norne oil field as open data. The release brings major improvements to the output capabilities of Flow, the fully implicit black-oil reservoir simulator. This includes improvements to summary and restart output, which is now controllable from the input deck, and also improved logging behaviour. For more information see http://opm-project.org/?page_id=36 Binary packages are available for Ubuntu and Red Hat Enterprise Linux, instructions are available for building from source for any Linux variant or Mac OS X.

See http://www.parallelintime.org/pySDC for more details! Features: - SDC, MLSDC, MSSDC and PFASST implementations, with and without MPI parallelization - many different examples (e.g. heat equation, particle dynamics, Boussinesq equation, reaction-diffusion equations, ...) - plays nicely with FEniCS for Finite Element discretization in space - a tutorial to flatten the rather steep learning curve a bit - fully documented and tested core routines and implementations - Python 2.7.x and 3.x compatibility pySDC is intended for rapid prototyping and educational purposes. New ideas like e.g. sweepers, predictors or time-parallelization strategies can be tested and first toy problems can be easily implemented. pySDC is open source under the BSD-2 license. The code is hosted on GitHub, see https://github.com/Parallel-in-Time/pySDC. ------------------------------------------------------- From: Elwin van 't Wout [log in to unmask] Date: December 05, 2016 Subject: Boundary Element Methods, Chile, Dec 2016 The program of Mathematical and Computational Engineering of Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile cordially invites you to attend the "First Chilean Symposium on Boundary Element Methods - Efficient computational algorithms for simulating wave propagation."

The corresponding forward problem maps the physical quantity to the measurements. In most realistic situations the solution of the inverse problem is challenging, complicated by incomplete and noisy measurements, as well as non-invertible forward operators which render the inverse problem ill-posed (that is lack of stability and/or uniqueness of solutions). Inverse problems appear in many practical applications in biology, medicine, weather forecasting, chemistry, engineering, physics, to name but a few, and their analysis and solution presents considerable challenges in mathematics and statistics. This conference will bring together mathematicians and statisticians, working on theoretical and numerical aspects of inverse problems, and engineers, physicists and other scientists, working on challenging inverse problem applications. We welcome industrial representatives, doctoral students, early career and established academics working in this field to attend. Conference topics: Imaging; Regularisation theory; Statistical inverse problems; Sampling; Data assimilation; Inverse problem applications. Abstracts should be submitted by 30 April via https://my.ima.org.uk/ For further information on this conference, please visit: http://ima.org.uk/conferences/conferences_calendar/inverse-problems.html ------------------------------------------------------- From: Michael Miksis [log in to unmask] Date: November 19, 2016 Subject: Faculty Positions, Applied Mathematics, Northwestern Univ The Department of Engineering Sciences and Applied Mathematics at Northwestern University (http://www.mccormick.northwestern.edu/applied- math/) invites applications for two fulltime, tenure-track faculty positions.

This is part of the NERC funded project "Moving meshes for Global Atmospheric Modelling" joint with the University of Bath (Prof Chris Budd, Mathematics) and Imperial College London (Dr Colin Cotter, Mathematics). We are developing novel mathematical techniques involving optimal transport and solving partial differential equations using an advanced C++ library (OpenFOAM). The use of adaptive meshes could enable more accurate and efficient weather prediction models and predictions of the regional impacts of climate change.
