Beck, Professor emeritus, Michigan State University Chairman: Keith A. Woodbury, The University of Alabama Co-chairman: Diego Murio, University of Cincinnati About the Symposium This is the twelfth in a series of informal meetings on inverse problems which originated at Michigan State University in 1988. Informal presentations and thorough discussions are the focus of the series. Call for Papers Papers are solicited from all areas involving inverse methods and their applications. Four broad categories are being used to organize sessions. These categories and possible sub-topics are: 1. Mathematical Aspects of Inverse Problems - inverse theory and methods, uniqueness and stability considerations, Volterra and other integral equations 2. Inverse Problems in Heat Transfer - inverse heat conduction, inverse Stefan problem, thermal property estimation 3. Inverse Problems in Mechanics - applications in dynamics, petroleum engineering, shape optimization, contact problems, control of fluid flow 4. Other Inverse Problems - bio-engineering inverse problems, inverse scattering and tomography, etc. General Information The two-day symposium will be held at the Bryant Conference Center at The University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa. A registration fee of $100 advance/$125 onsite covers continental breakfast and lunch on both days as well as refreshments during morning and afternoon breaks. Each registered participant will receive a CD-ROM with information provided by each presenter. As a bonus, we plan to offer a tutorial session on the afternoon of Sunday, June 8. This tutorial will be free to all registered participants, and will be held on the campus of the University of Alabama. Travel Information The nearest major airport is in Birmingham, approximately 60 miles away. Car rentals and airport shuttle services are available at the airport. Additionally, we plan to offer a limited van service from the airport to the conference center for conference participants. Hotel Information Two hotels are convenient for the conference. The Sheraton Four Points Hotel is immediately adjacent to the Bryant Conference Center and has full hotel amenities. The Four Points is sold out for the night of June 7 due to a special event, but has availability for King/Double room for $85+tax. The Hampton Inn is about 1.5 miles from the Bryant Conference Center, and presently has availability for the nights of June 7-9 at the University rate of $75/night (contact: Joey Mitchell - Front Office Manager).

The Center invites applications from outstanding candidates for the first of several faculty positions. The unifying theme for the Center is the study of complex systems through numerical simulation, the development of new computational methodologies and algorithms, data mining, and visualization. Preference will be given to candidates at the rank of Professor, although qualified candidates at all levels are encouraged to apply. Duties include graduate and undergraduate teaching, in addition to a vigorous research program. For additional details please refer to the web site http://naniloa.ucdavis.edu/CSE/. The position will remain open until filled, but to assure full consideration, complete application materials must be received by April 15, 2003. UC Davis is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer. LINDA R.
