Abstracts of new and old papers, books, preprints, etc., which relate to the general area of inverse problems, are always welcome! Information about how to SUBMIT your abstracts can be obtained by consulting previous IPNet Digests or by sending a message to ipnet-request@math.msu.edu with the following in the body of the message: send abstract-submit-info RETRIEVAL of abstracts from the IPNet Abstract Server may be handled via e-mail, gopher, or www (information on the latter two will be given in a future digest). For e-mail RETRIEVAL of abstracts, or for searches of author names, keywords, etc., send a message to ipnet-request@math.msu.edu with one of the following statements in the body of your message (explanations and examples follow the statements; optional fields are in brackets `[...]' ): send index [from category] This asks for a listing of the names of all abstract files, optionally from a given category. (Information on categories is given below.) Examples: send index send index from nonlinear theory send index from medical applications find author name [from category] This searches for an author's last name; first name is not checked. Examples: find author foobar find author Foobar find author Smith from general theory find title name [from category] This searches for a word or group of words appearing in an abstract title. Example: find title Ill-Posed Problems find title ill-posed problems from linear theory find keyword [from category] This searches for any word or string of words appearing anywhere in the abstract. The word 'and' is not searched, but useful in determining the intersection of searches. Example: find inverse problem from medical applications find regularization and inverse problem After mailing your message, you will receive a list of abstract files that match your request. Abstract files are named according to the lastname and initials of the first author, the year of the manuscript, and whether this is the first, second, third, ..., abstract submitted by that author. For example, an abstract which has as its first author J.B. Foobar and which appeared in 1994 and was the third abstract archived with this author as first author, will be named: foobar_jb_94.3 Once you have determined the filenames of interest to you, you may receive the contents of these files by sending a message to ipnet-request@math.msu.edu with the following in the body of the message: send filename [from category] Examples: send smith_ab_93.2 send smith* from general theory send smith* ( Note that '*' is a wildcard character when used with 'send', so that all files by 'smith' are retrieved in the last 2 examples. ) For more information about abstract retrieval or about the general categories, send a message to ipnet-request@math.msu.edu with the following in the body of the message: send abstract-retrieve-info -IPNet ----------------------------- From: "J. Gottlieb" Subject: Workshop on Parameter Identification and Inverse Problems Date: Fri, 28 Oct 94 Announcement: Workshop on Parameter Identification and Inverse Problems in Hydrology, Geology and Ecology Where: Karlsruhe, Germany When: April 10-12, 1995 The workshop is the second meeting of the working group Applied Mathematics In Geo- and ecOlogy (AMIGO). The aim of the workshop is bringing Mathematicians and Applicants together. The first part of the workshop is intended to present modern mathematical tools for nonlinear inverse problems in form of review contributions. the second part is devoted to applications and case studies. Program Commitee: J.Gottlieb (Karlsruhe), M. Hanke (Karlsruhe), B. Hofmann (Chemnitz), U. Hornung (Munich), W. Kinzelbach (Heidelberg), P. Knabner (Erlangen).

It aims to combine theoretical and mathematical papers on inverse problems with numerical and practical approaches to their solution. The main audience is pure and applied mathematicians and physicists, but the journal will also have more specialised appeal to workers in geophysics, optics, radar, acoustics, communication theory and signal processing. All inverse problems, inverse methods and data inversion methods are within the scope of the journal, including applications to tomography, systems identification, non-destructive evaluation and non-linear evolution equations. The emphasis is on publishing original contributions to methods of solving mathematical, physical and applied problems. Because of the broad scope of the journal, it is hoped that authors will provide sufficient introductory material to appeal to a wider readership.
