Many options and further matrix operations are available. Both Sparse BLAS and the own interfaces are supported (C/C++, Fortran). You can also use librsb transparently in a Matlab-style fashion via the GNU Octave `sparsersb` package and command, or in Python via the `pyrsb.rsb_matrix` class inspired by `scipy.sparse` classes. This minor release has fixes for various compilers, Windows, or 32-bit builds. Full changes list on http://librsb.sourceforge.net/NEWS.TXT The source code of librsb is LGPLv3 licensed.

Tensorlab+ is a reproducible research repository for tensor computations, built on top of Tensorlab. It can be downloaded from https://www.tensorlabplus.net. The second release provides support for 10 additional papers. The new code can be downloaded per paper or, alternatively, can be obtained by downloading the full repository. In total, Tensorlab+ now allows one to recreate the results of 220+ experiments that are discussed in 44 papers, thus allowing the reproduction of 250+ figures and tables, and it includes 42 tutorials and demos. The code is free to use for non-commercial research. We hope that you will find it useful and welcome all suggestions and feedback. ------------------------------------------------------- From: Jack Dongarra [log in to unmask] Date: December 20, 2022 Subject: ADIA Lab Seminar Series, ONLINE, Starting Jan 2023 I recently joined the Advisory Board for ADIA Lab (https://www.adialab.ae/), the independent research institution engaged in basic and applied research in Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and High-Performance and Quantum Computing.

Since 2006, the Workshop is scheduled each year. Past workshops have been held at locations around the world and have been attended by OpenFOAM users and developers from all continents. The central part of the Workshop is the multi-day conference, where presentations and posters on industrial applications and academic research are shown. In addition, one full day is reserved for training sessions, where experienced OpenFOAM instructors give hands-on tutorials for all levels of experience with OpenFOAM. A community day offers the possibility to meet people with similar areas of interest in "birds- of-a-feather" sessions and work-group meetings. The OpenFOAM Workshop thus provides a unique opportunity to connect and share experience with other OpenFOAM users. The 18th OpenFOAM workshop will be held in Genoa, Italy, from 11 to 14 July 2023, at the Polytechnic School of the University of Genoa,organized by the Department of Civil, Chemical and Environmental Engineering (DICCA), with the collaboration of Wolf Dynamics. The workshop is organized as a hybrid event, online and in-person participation is possible. But we hope to meet you personally in Genoa, where we are going to offer you a unique experience being immersed in the largest historical center in Europe, one step away from the Ligurian Riviera.
