As an abstraction, it directly mirrors high-level mathematical abstractions common in the sciences. As a language feature, it exposes regular control flow, exhibits structured data dependencies, and lends itself to many types of program analysis. Further, many modern computer architectures, including GPUs, incorporate features for the efficient execution of array operations. This workshop is intended to bring together researchers from many different communities, including language designers, library developers, compiler researchers and practitioners who are working on numeric, array-centric aspects of programming languages, libraries and methodologies from all domains: imperative or declarative, object-oriented or not, interpreted or compiled, strongly typed, weakly typed or untyped. Topics: Array, graph, and tensor abstractions; Compilers and libraries for array and graph programs on distributed/shared memory parallel computers; Building-blocks for (dense and sparse) matrix/tensor algorithms; Compiler transformations and intermediate languages for array computations; Systematic array notation, including axis- and index-based approaches; and Representation of mathematical structure, including sparsity, rank, and hierarchy.

The models are highly anisotropic which is crucial to the mathematical theory. Main topics will include advanced models, modern algorithmic discretization, and numerical resolution of wave models with varying coefficients since it is a bottleneck for future simulations. This meeting will also be a great opportunity to discuss other modern challenges in waves in plasmas, as well as various aspects of anisotropic wave propagation in different environments. List of the main speakers is already available on the web site (additional program soon available) https://indico.math.cnrs.fr/event/1831/ Registration will soon be available on the web site. ------------------------------------------------------- From: Paul Hovland [log in to unmask] Date: March 06, 2017 Subject: Deputy Division Director, Applied Math & Statistics, Argonne The Mathematics and Computer Science (MCS) Division at Argonne National Laboratory invites applications for the position of Deputy Division Director for Applied Mathematics and Statistics.
