Some additional lectures devoted to numerical and algorithmic issues of tomography will be delivered by Professor Leonid Kunyansky (Univ. of Arizona). Financial support for attending the conference will be provided to about 25-30 participants. Established researchers as well as interested newcomers, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate students, are invited to attend. An online application and further information are available at: http://omega.uta.edu/~aktosun/cbms2012 Even though the application deadline is February 15, 2012, early applications are encouraged.

Prior to the workshop, several PhD courses on the topic will be organized on September 17th-18th, 2012. We invite members of the scientific community in universities, research centers and industry to attend the workshop and present their recent achievements. Abstract submission deadline will be May 14th, 2012. [The first call for abstract submission can be found at http://www.oipe2012.ugent.be/callforpaper.pdf -Eds.] More information about the workshop and PhD course can be found on http://www.oipe2012.com/. We look forward to meet all of you in Ghent at OIPE 2012. Prof. dr. ir. Luc Dupre, Chairman dr. ir. Guillaume Crevecoeur, Conference secretary ----------------------------- Subject: AWM Workshop at SIAM Annual Meeting From: Cammey Cole Manning Date: 10/31/2011 An AWM Workshop will be held in conjunction with the 2012 SIAM Annual Meeting, Minneapolis, MN, July 12-13, 2012. The workshop will consist of a graduate student poster session, presentations by Recent Ph.D.s, a mentoring event, and a career minisymposium. Workshop participants will have the opportunity to meet with other women mathematicians at all stages of their careers. AWM invites women graduate students who have made substantial progress towards their theses topic to apply to present posters at the AWM Workshop; up to 10 women will be selected to present a poster. AWM invites women who have completed their Ph.D. within the past five years to apply to present research talks in two minisymposia at the AWM Workshop; one of the minisymposia will be open to talks from any applied area and the focus of the other minisymposium will be mathematical biology. Up to four women will be selected to give a talk in each minisymposium. The application deadline is Friday, November 18, 2011.

It contains not only algorithms and their mathematical justifications, but also many numerical examples of the implementation of these algorithms. The book is of interest to mathematicians inrerested in operator equations, numerical analysis, and wide range of applications.
