The investigator and his colleagues organize the 2001 John H. Barrett Memorial Lectures in the University of Tennessee at Knoxville from May 10-12, 2001. The Barrett Lectures have been held annually since 1972. Each year a different topic is chosen, representing the research interests of the mathematics faculty of the University of Tennessee. Since 1993, the lectures have consisted of threeone-hour survey talks by each of three leading researchersrepresenting different themes/directions in a single field. The topic of the 2001 Barrett Lectures is: ``New Directions and Developments in Computational Mathematics". The focus of the lectures is parallel numerical algorithms for partial differential equations and their implementations and applications. The main speakers of the 2001 Barrett Lectures are Jinchao Xu of Penn State University, David Keyes of Old Dominion University and ICASE, and Mary Wheeler of University of Texas at Austin. Each of them will deliver three one-hour survey lectures on recent developments on parallel numerical algorithms with three different emphases: theory (Xu), computer implementation (Keyes), and application (Wheeler). In addition to the main speakers, sixspeakers are also invited to give one-hour talks on topics related to one of the main lectures.The Barrett Lectures are partly funded by a grant from Tennessee Science Alliance, and have often received additional support from the National Science Foundation. They attract wide interest, with an audience of between 40 and 50 participants from the whole country, in addition to faculty and students from Knoxville and the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. They represent one of the few long standing lecture series in mathematics in the southeastern United States. The main objective of the 2001 Barrett Lectures is to provide the participants with an exposition of parallel numerical algorithms for partial differential equations arising from various scientific/engineering/industrial applications, through in-depth surveylectures and informal discussions with the above three leading researchers in the field. Additional goals are to foster interdisciplinary collaboration, particularly with researchers in the Computer Science Department and in the College of Engineering at the University of Tennessee and several other southeastern institutions, and to generate a set of written surveys in the subject, which the organizing committee will endeavor to have published in book form. The fund being requested from the NSF will be spentproviding partial support towards travel and accommodation for $20$ graduatestudents and recent Ph.D.'s who do not have research grants.

研究者和他的同事于 2001 年 5 月 10 日至 12 日在田纳西大学诺克斯维尔分校组织了 2001 年约翰·H·巴雷特纪念讲座。巴雷特讲座自 1972 年以来每年举行一次。每年都会选择一个不同的主题来代表研究成果田纳西大学数学系的兴趣。自 1993 年以来，讲座由三名领先研究人员分别代表同一领域的不同主题/方向的三个一小时的调查演讲组成。 2001年巴雷特讲座的主题是：“计算数学的新方向和发展”。讲座的重点是偏微分方程的并行数值算法及其实现和应用。2001年巴雷特讲座的主讲人是徐金超宾夕法尼亚州立大学的戴维·凯斯（David Keyes）和德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校的玛丽·惠勒（Mary Wheeler）每人将发表三篇论文。一小时的关于并行数值算法最新进展的调查讲座，分三个不同的重点：理论（Xu）、计算机实现（Keyes）和应用（Wheeler） 除了主要演讲者外，还邀请了六位演讲者进行一小时的演讲。与主要讲座之一相关的主题的演讲。巴雷特讲座的部分资金来自田纳西州科学联盟的资助，并且经常得到国家科学基金会的额外支持。它们吸引了广泛的兴趣，听众人数介于两者之间。除了来自诺克斯维尔和橡树岭国家实验室的教师和学生外，还有来自全国各地的 40 名和 50 名参与者。它们是美国东南部为数不多的长期数学讲座系列之一。 2001 年 Barrett 讲座的主要目标是通过深入的调查讲座以及与上述三位领先研究人员的非正式讨论，向参与者介绍各种科学/工程/工业应用中产生的偏微分方程的并行数值算法。场地。其他目标是促进跨学科合作，特别是与田纳西大学计算机科学系和工程学院以及其他几个东南部机构的研究人员的合作，并生成一系列该主题的书面调查，组委会将力争以书籍形式出版。向 NSF 申请的资金将用于为没有研究补助金的 20 美元研究生和应届博士生提供部分旅行和住宿支持。
