Theme Chairman: Charbel Farhat, CU-Boulder

This conference traditionally provides a forum for interaction
among basic researchers and practitioners. To promote this, morning
and evening seminar sessions will be held and afternoons will be open
for informal workshops, discussions, and special sessions. Anyone
interested in organizing such a session should contact one of the
chairmen.

The conference will be held at the Copper Mountain Resort, about
75 miles west of Denver. Deluxe condominium accommodations and
adjacent meeting rooms are in the Village Square Lodge at the base of
the Copper Mountain F lift.

TUTORIAL: The first day will be devoted to introductory lectures,
based on the book "Multigrid Tutorial" by Bill Briggs, which will be
available for purchase at the conference.

PANEL DISCUSSION: Oliver McBryan will chair a group of experts to
discuss multigrid methods in parallel computations.

INVITED SPEAKERS: Arrangements are being made to feature several
distinguished lecturers representing a broad spectrum of
multigrid areas of research.

PAPERS: Please send title, short abstract, mailing address, phone
number, and e-mail address (if available) BY OCTOBER 24, 1988 to Jan
Mandel. Complete manuscripts for inclusion into preliminary
proceedings will be due February 28, 1989. Selected papers will be
refereed for published proceedings and camera-ready copies will be
due by July 1, 1989.

REGISTRATION: The conference fee ($175 for SIAM members, $195 for
non-members by March 1, $210 and $230 after) should be paid with

organize

THE SECOND JOINT EUROPE/US SHORT COURSE IN HYPERSONICS

16-20 January 1989

at the

U.S. Air Force Academy

Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA

The First Joint Europe/U.S. Short Course in Hypersonics, which was held
in Paris in December 1987 (cf March SIAM News, Hypersonics experts meet)
brought together Chemists, Computer Scientits, Engineers, Experimentalists,
Mathematicians and Physicists to discuss hypersonics flows related to
aerospace applications (published proceedings will be available). Building on
this foundation, the second course will offer presentations by internationally
known hypersonic experts over a wide range of subjects. Presentations on non
equilibrium thermochemistry, rarefied gas dynamics, hypersonic boundary
layers (including transition), ground based testing, computational
fluid dynamics and flight testing should interest post-gradaute students,
designers and researchers.

The invited speakers are :

R. Barthelemy (Wright-Patterson Labs, US), J. Bertin (Univ. of Texas, Austin,
US), C. Bruno (Univ. of Milan, Italy), H. Viviand (ONERA, France),
