Professor Olof Widlund has made
significant contributions in the field of numerical analysis for more than
forty years. In the last twenty years Olof Widlund's work has
focused on developing and unifying the research in domain
decomposition. Domain decomposition methods are scalable, efficient
methods for the solution of linear systems that arise from the discretization
of partial differential equations. Thus work in this area is a combination of
mathematical analysis and algorithmic development. The core of the program will be a two-day meeting consisting
of about two dozen scientific lectures covering a wide area of numerical
analysis, scientific computing and relevant applications. Contributed papers
will be considered for a poster session.
