Subject: Change at the digest

You may have noticed some changes have taken place with the NA Net and NA-Digest. First Cleve, who began as editor of the digest in 1988, has decided to step down. Cleve has really done a terrific job of putting together the weekly digest adding his own touch in subtle ways. Under Cleve's editorship the Digest has grown from about a few hundred subscribers to over 11,000.

Cleve, congratulations and thanks for all the time and effort you have put in during the last 18 years. Your hard work and dedication is greatly appreciated by the community.

Tammy Kolda from Sandia National Labs has taken on the roll as editor for the digest. There are some additional changes on how topics are submitted.
Hopefully this will help everyone and minimize the amount of spam received via the digest.

As you may know the NA-Digest and netlib are unfunded activities and continue in large part because of contributions of time and effort from people like Cleve and Tammy.

Best wishes,
Gene and Jack

Subject: Changes at NA Digest

I am very pleased to welcome Tamara Kolda as the new regular editor of the NA Digest. Tammy is with the Computational Sciences and Mathematics Research department at Sandia National Labs in Livermore, California. I am sure that many of you already know Tammy through her research papers, software projects, and participation in SIAM and the Association for Women in Mathematics. She has been editor of "BANANA", the Bay Area regional version of NA Digest since its creation five years ago.

I also hope you noticed the recent announcement by the NA Digest software guru, Keith Moore, that we are now trying to reduce spam by requiring acknowledgement of contributions. If you wish to contribute to the Digest, send email to

[email protected]

Include your announcement in the body of the email, not in an attachment. Keep it short. Refer readers to a Web page for details.
You will receive an automatic reply from the Digest input queue software asking you to visit a Web page to confirm your contribution. We expect that spammers will fail to provide this confirmation and so their material will not find its way into the actual queue.

-- Cleve

Subject: New Release of Trilinos

Release 6.0 of Trilinos is available for download at the Trilinos website.
This version has one new package, and major enhancements to most other packages. Below is a brief set of release notes. More details can be found at the Trilinos website.

Links:

Main Trilinos website: http://software.sandia.gov/trilinos
Download link: http://software.sand.../downloads.html
Release 6.0 Notes: http://software.sand..._6.0_notes.html
Tutorial: http://software.sand...nosTutorial.pdf

Overview:

Trilinos is a collection of compatible software packages (18 in the general release, an additional 9 in the limited release) that support parallel linear algebra computations, solution of linear, non-linear and eigen systems of equations and related capabilities.

In addition to many new features across most packages, Trilinos Release 6.0 contains one new package, Thyra. This package represents our first general release of an abstract interface to support generic programming. A second major feature is the much improved design and implementation of PyTrilinos, a collection of Python wrappers for serial and parallel execution of Trilinos via Python.

FEniCS'05, October 19-20 at TTI Chicago

This will be the first FEniCS workshop and a great opportunity to get an introduction to the use of FEniCS components, learn how to participate in the development of FEniCS, influence the future directions for FEniCS, and hear about the latest developments of FFC, FIAT, DOLFIN and the new mesh component Sieve.

There is no registration fee for the meeting, but it is necessary to register to participate.

The vision of FEniCS is to set a new standard in Computational Mathematical Modeling (CMM), which is the Automation of CMM (ACMM), towards the goals of generality, efficiency and simplicity, concerning mathematical methodology, implementation and application.

The FEniCS project was initiated in 2003 in cooperation between the Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago, the University of Chicago and Chalmers University of Technology in Göteborg. Since then, the project has grown to include developers from the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Argonne National Laboratory, Simula Research Laboratory in Oslo and Delft University of Technology.

FEniCS is organized as a collection of software components, including the form compiler FFC, the finite element tabulator FIAT and the programming environment DOLFIN, all freely available on the FEniCS web page.

Confirmed speakers: Johan Hoffman, Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm; Claes Johnson, Chalmers University of Technology, Göteborg; Robert C. Kirby, University of Chicago; Matthew Knepley, Argonne National Laboratory, Chicago; Hans Petter Langtangen, Simula Research Laboratory, Oslo; Anders Logg, Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago; Ridgway Scott, University of Chicago; Garth N.
