CCF-TFNSG: Uniting Discrete Methods, Optimization and the CISE Community with the Community studying Matrix Operations, Tensors, Verifiable Computational Experiments and ScalabilityThe 2009 SIAM Annual meeting is taking place in Denver, Colorado. There is typically a great deal of representation of the SIAM Computer Science and Engineering group at the Annual meeting that studies matrix operations, tensors, verifiable computing and scalability, but little or no representation of the CISE Community, the Discrete Methods or the Optimization Communities. As a pilot effort to study the feasibility of promoting such interaction, Lenore Cowen from the SIAM Discrete Math activity group, and Tamara Kolda from the CS and E SIAM activity group, chaired the 2008 SIAM Annual Meeting. On the CS and E side, both a full CS and E track was organized, and also a meeting theme of Numerical Linear Algebra and Tensor methods. On the Discrete and CISE side, a special theme of Networks: Biological, Social and Internet was organized. In 2009, Lenore Cowen has agreed to organize a track at the SIAM Annual meeting through the Discrete Math activity group. The Discrete Math activity group runs its own biannual conference, plus it and ACM SIGACT co-run SODA (The Discrete Algorithms conference) every year. The goal of this proposal is to get participant communities that normally attend the SIAM Discrete Math and the ACM-SIAM SODA conferences to come attend the annual meeting in minisymposium sessions design to promote interaction in topics in mutual interest. Our plan for this is threefold: 1) To have Bruce Hendrickson on the CS and E side run a minisymposium on Combinatorial Scientific Computing, and also to have someone on the CS and E side run a minisymposium on tensors and data mining (possibly Tammy Kolda). 2) To have a repeat of the Networks: Biological, Social and Internet theme for several minisymposia to bring in the CISE people and 3) To bring in some of the core Discrete Math and Optimization people by co-locating a banquet, separate from the SIAM annual meeting, in honor of Danny Kleitman?s 75th birthday. The result will hopefully be a truly interdisciplinary meeting. We ask for $20,000 to help support registration, travel and housing fees for minisymposium speakers; this will be spread among 28-32 minisymposium speakers, with preference for funds going to those coming from further away and/or who do not have other sources of grant money for travel. We ask for an additional $15,000 for travel grants for graduate student attendance, and every effort will be made to reach out and broaden participation to a diverse group of graduate students. No money is requested for the non-SIAM activities at the meeting, i.e. the banquet in honor of Danny Kleitman?s birthday. Participants will cover the cost of the banquet on their own.

CCF-TFNSG：将离散方法、优化和 CISE 社区与研究矩阵运算、张量、可验证计算实验和可扩展性的社区结合起来 2009 年 SIAM 年会在科罗拉多州丹佛市举行。年会上，研究矩阵运算、张量、可验证计算和可扩展性的 SIAM 计算机科学与工程小组通常有大量代表，但 CISE 社区、离散方法或优化社区的代表很少或没有。作为研究促进这种互动的可行性的试点工作，来自 SIAM 离散数学活动组的 Lenore Cowen 和来自 CS 和 E SIAM 活动组的 Tamara Kolda 主持了 2008 年 SIAM 年会。在CS和E方面，既组织了完整的CS和E赛道，也组织了数值线性代数和张量方法的会议主题。在离散和CISE方面，组织了一个特殊主题“网络：生物、社会和互联网”。 2009 年，Lenore Cowen 同意通过离散数学活动小组在 SIAM 年会上组织一场活动。离散数学活动小组每两年举办一次会议，并且每年与 ACM SIGACT 共同举办 SODA（离散算法会议）。该提案的目标是让通常参加 SIAM 离散数学和 ACM-SIAM SODA 会议的参与者社区以小型研讨会的形式参加年会，以促进共同感兴趣的主题的互动。我们的计划有三个方面：1）让 CS 和 E 方面的 Bruce Hendrickson 举办一次关于组合科学计算的小型研讨会，并让 CS 和 E 方面的某人举办一次关于张量和数据挖掘的小型研讨会（可能是 Tammy Kolda） ）。 2) 在几次小型研讨会上重复网络：生物、社会和互联网主题，以引入 CISE 人员；3) 通过与会议中心分开举办宴会，引入一些核心离散数学和优化人员。 SIAM 年会，庆祝 Danny Kleitman 75 岁生日。希望其结果将是一次真正的跨学科会议。我们请求 20,000 美元来帮助支持小型研讨会发言人的注册费、旅费和住宿费；这将分摊给 28-32 名小型研讨会发言人，资金将优先分配给那些来自较远地区和/或没有其他旅行补助金来源的人。我们要求为研究生出勤提供额外 15,000 美元的旅费补助，并且将尽一切努力接触并扩大多元化研究生群体的参与。会议期间的非 SIAM 活动（即 Danny Kleitman 生日宴会）不收取任何费用。参加宴会的费用由参加者自行承担。
