The scope of the meeting is to bring together scientists and engineers who are working on theoretical and computational aspects of inverse problems. The meeting will consist of longer invited lectures, minisymposia and contributed talks. The following speakers have agreed to present invited lectures: S. Arridge A. Bjorck T. F. Chan L. Elden H. W. Engl G. H. Golub P. C. Hansen J. Nagy Z. Nashed F. Natterer R. J. Plemmons F. Santosa E. Somersalo Organizing and Scientific Committee: M. Bertero, D. Calvetti, T.F. Chan, G.H. Golub, G. Inglese, A. Murli, R.J. Plemmons, L. Reichel, S. Seatzu, F. Sgallari, G. Talenti Further information will be made available in early August.

SIAM meetings@siam.org ------------------------------ From: Ken Jackson Subject: 2001-02 NA Year at the Fields Institute in Toronto Date: Wed, 31 May 2000 The Fields Institute in Toronto is sponsoring a Thematic Year on "Numerical and Computational Challenges in Science and Engineering" (NCCSE) from August 2001 to July 2002. The main point of this announcement is to inform the scientific computing committee about this event so that any people interested in participating can include it in their plans for 2001-02. A key to the success of this program will be the senior long-term visitors that it attracts. Their research interests will shape many of the events that take place during the year and their participation in the program will attract many junior colleagues, postdocs and graduate students. We are now considering applications from senior researchers to visit the Fields Institute for a month or more, possibly spread out over several shorter visits, such as a couple of weeks around two or more workshops or one day each week for a term. We would particularly welcome visitors for one or both terms of the year. We have some funds to support travel and local expenses for senior researchers, but not to pay their salaries. If you are a senior researcher interested in participating in the program, please e-mail Ken Jackson at krj@cs.utoronto.ca. More information about the Fields Institute in general and the NCCSE Thematic Year in particular can be found at http://www.fields.utoronto.ca and http://www.fields.utoronto.ca/numerical.html respectively. ------------------------------ From: "Inverse Problems" Subject: Inverse Problems contents list Date: Fri, 02 Jun 2000 Inverse Problems June 2000 Volume 16, Issue 3 Table of Contents LETTER TO THE EDITOR The global uniqueness for determining two convection coefficients from Dirichlet to Neumann map in two dimensions J Cheng and M Yamamoto PAPERS Maslov asymptotic extension of generalized Radon transform inversion in anisotropic elastic media: a least-squares approach M V de Hoop and S Brandsberg-Dahl Binary-constrained inversion of a buried cylindrical obstacle from complete and phaseless magnetic fields M Lambert and D Lesselier On the determination of elastic coefficients from indentation experiments N Tardieu and A Constantinescu On some nondecaying potentials and related Jost solutions for the heat conduction equation B Prinari The initial value problem for reductions of the Benney equations L Yu and J Gibbons Sequential predictor--corrector regularization methods and their limitations W Ring and J Prix High-resolution computed tomography from efficient sampling A Faridani and E L Ritman An inverse source problem in potential analysis A El Badia and T Ha-Duong Identification of the diffusion coefficient in a one-dimensional parabolic equation V Isakov and S Kindermann An implementation of the reconstruction algorithm of A Nachman for the 2D inverse conductivity problem S Siltanen, J Mueller and D Isaacson The 3D Doppler transform: elementary properties and computation of reconstruction kernels T Schuster Determination of point wave sources by pointwise observations: stability and reconstruction G Bruckner and M Yamamoto Some eigenvalue problems for the vectorial Hill's equation C-L Shen On reconstruction in the inverse conductivity problem with one measurement M Ikehata Minimization of strictly convex functions: an improved optimality test based on Fenchel duality C Heinrich and G Demoment Two-dimensional patterns in reaction--diffusion systems: an analytical tool for the experimentalist N Giovambattista, M Bellini and R Deza Phase recovery with nondecaying potentials T Aktosun and P E Sacks An algorithm of geophysical data inversion based on non-probabilistic presentation of a priori information and definition of Pareto-optimality E Kozlovskaya Three-dimensional microwave tomography.
