[MITgcm-devel] Fwd: International Conference on Non-Archimedean Analysis

[Patrick Heimbach]

Well,
the MITgcm has non-Boussinesq, non-hydrostatic, non-linearFS.
Can we also do non-Archimedean?
;-)

> Dear Colleagues in the AD community,

> I thought I bring to your attention the following AMS Conference:
>
> Tenth International Conference on P-Adic and Non-Archimedean Analysis
> June 30 to July 3, 2008, Michigan State University
> http://www.bt.pa.msu.edu/NA08/
>
> This conference should be of interest to the AD and rigorous computing
> communities because the computations with infinitesimals in some of  
> the
> theories in this field provide a deeper and elegant mathematical  
> underpinning of Automatic Differentiation. In fact, much of AD can  
> be just re-interpreted elegantly as computing difference quotients  
> with infinitely small differences, leading to infinitely accurate  
> results, all in a rich algebraic structure and framework.
>
> It would be nice to strengthen the bridge between this fascinating  
> pure
> mathematics and the applications in AD and other areas of rigorous  
> computing; so we are hoping to see some of you at the conference.  
> Please feel free to distribute to colleagues who may be interested.
>
> Sincerely,
>
> Martin Berz
