Fifth International Conference on Scientific Computing and Applications
May 18-May 21, 2006 Banff, Alberta, Canada
Short Course on Multigrid Methods, May 22, 2006

This will be the fifth of a sequence of conferences on Scientific Computing and Applications held in the Pacific Rim region. The focus of this particular conference will be on the problems and methods related to image processing, financial applications and modelling of multiphase flows. The theoretical areas of interest include fundamental methods and algorithms for solving PDE's and linear systems of equations. More information can be found at http://www.ualberta.ca/~sca2006/
