[NotiAMCA] COMPLAS X Int. Conf. Computation al Plasticity
COMPLAS X International Conference on Computational Plasticity 2-4 September 2009 Barcelona, España Objectives Previous meetings in the COMPLAS series were held in Barcelona in 1987, 1989, 1992, 1995, 1997, 2000 2003, 2005 and 2007. COMPLAS 2007 attracted some 300 participants. COMPLAS 2009 will address both the theoretical bases for the solution of plasticity problems and the numerical algorithms necessary for efficient and robust computer implementation. The ability to provide numerical simulations for increasingly complex problems is advancing rapidly due to both remarkable strides in computer hardware development and the improved maturity of computational procedures for non-linear systems. Significant advances have been made in the formulation and implementation of algorithms for static and dynamic problems involving finite strains, complex contact interaction laws, constitutive material behaviours including multi-physics or multi-scale effects, progressive large scale fracturing, etc.. Such advances, however, demand a closer interaction between numerical analysts and material scientists in order to produce theoretical models which provide a response in keeping with fundamental material principles and experimental observations. Numerical techniques, and in particular finite element and discrete element methods, are now extensively employed in non-linear deformation predictions and very often offer the only means of solution for practical engineering problems. It is therefore essential to ascertain that such techniques can be reliably employed in industrial and RD applications. COMPLAS 2009 aims to act as a forum for practitioners in the field to discuss recent advances and identify future research directions. Sessions related to specific topics of the conference will be introduced by a Keynote Lecture in the field. These Keynote Lectures will be complemented by Invited Sessions organised by recognised experts in targeted research areas, as well as by contributed papers received from the general Call for Papers.

[NotiAMCA] IMPAR 2008 - Impact of New Architectures on Parallel Programming
= IMPAR 2008 The Impact of New Architectures on Parallel Programming (in conjunction with the conference CSE'08 - July 16-18, 2008 Sao Paulo - Brazil) Although parallel programming has been a concern for decades, the new generation of processors has fostered the research in the area. Multicore chips have become a standard, without any clear new solution to program them, besides OpenMP, Posix Threads and MPI. Moreover, the increase in the number of cores that is expected within the chips has already raised the issue of the performance. For instance, the scalability of parallel programs running on chips multicores, with clear bottlenecks such as a unique memory bus, is an issue. The treatment of Non-Uniform Memory Accesses in the current parallel languages or libraries is an other open point which may turn crucial as the number of cores increases. Finally, Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) are also emerging as a new source of parallel platforms. This workshop aims at discussing the renewed problematics of parallel programming, given these new trends in processor architecture. It is open to all researchers, academic or industrial, who are working in the field of Parallel Programming. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Parallel Languages and Libraries. - Tools for parallel programming: debuggers, libraries and performance analyzers. - Compilers. - Scheduling. - Influence of the architectural design on the performance of a parallel program. - Models for Parallel Programming. - Programmation of GPUs. - Performance Evaluation. - Parallel Applications. The authors are invited to submit original papers of 6 pages maximum, in PDF format with 5-10 keywords following the IEEE two-column format (available at http://www.computer.org/portal/pages/cscps/cps/cps_forms.html). The final version of the accepted papers will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press with the proceedings of the CSE-08 workshops. The papers should be submitted through the Easy Chair system, following the link: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=impar08. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper. For no-show authors, their papers will be removed from the digital library after the conference and their affiliations will receive a notification. Important dates: * Paper submission due: March, 1st. * Notification of Acceptance: April, 1st. * Final Camera Ready paper: April, 25th.

[NotiAMCA] Doctorado en George Mason Univ. (USA)
Estimados Victorio, Mario, Quisiera pedirles si pueden distribuir el siguiente aviso que te mando adjunto para realizar doctorados en Ciencias Computacionales aca en George Mason University (Virginia - USA). Tenemos fondos como para uno o dos estudiantes para trabajar en modelado numerico de flujos sanguineos en aneurismas cerebrales. Muchas gracias y un saludo, JRC - George Mason University Graduate Research Assistantships Graduate research assistantships are available to pursue a PhD in Computational Sciences at the Center for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), George Mason University, Fairfax, Virginia, USA under the supervision of Prof. Juan R. Cebral. The candidate will conduct research in Computational Hemodynamics (blood flows) applied to cerebral aneurysms. The aim of this research is to better understand the mechanisms responsible for the initiation, evolution and rupture of brain aneurysms, which is a devastating disease affecting a substantial portion of the population. Better understanding of these processes will help medical doctors to improve patient evaluation (better assess the rupture risk of a given aneurysm) and personalizing treatment plans (select the best therapeutic options available to treat a given aneurysm). For these purposes, we develop and use advanced computational methods to construct patient-specific models of the blood flow in brain aneurysms from three-dimensional medical images. Then, we relate the hemodynamics variables such as the wall shear stress derived from these models to clinical observations indicative of aneurysm wall weakness such as wall pulsation, aneurysm growth, bleb formation, rupture, etc. This highly multidisciplinary research involves medical image processing, geometry modeling, meshing, computational fluid dynamics, visualization and computer graphics, high performance computing as well as clinical investigation. This research is supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) ? National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), the American Heart Association (AHA), and medical industry companies such as Philips Medical Systems and Boston Scientific. These projects are carried out in the context of close collaborations with clinical centers, universities and national laboratories including the Interventional Neuroradiology Unit of Inova Fairfax Hospital in Virginia, Interventional Neuroradiology at University of of California Los Angeles, the Department of Technology of the Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona, and the Laboratory for Computational Physics at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington DC. The successful candidate should be highly motivated, be able to work independently, be comfortable working in multidisciplinary teams, be able to collaborate with researchers and clinicians from a number of institutions, and possess excellent communication skills. He/she should have strong background in mathematics, sciences, and computing. For more information contact Dr. Juan R. Cebral by email: jcebral en gmu.edu (web page: http://www.cos.gmu.edu/~jcebral)

Past winners of awards are available on the IACM webpage www.iacm.info . The nomination must be submitted by November 9, 2007 by email to the following address [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ted Belytschko Chair Honors Committee The IACM Congress Medal (Gauss-Newton Medal) is the highest award given by IACM. It honors individuals who have made outstanding, sustained contributions in the field of computational mechanics generally over periods representing substantial portions of their professional careers. The medal is bronze and carries the images of Newton and Gauss in recognition of the synergy between mathematics, numerical analysis, and mathematical modeling of physical events that underpin much of the broad field of computational mechanics. The IACM Award is given in recognition of outstanding and sustained contributions to the broad field of computational mechanics. These contributions shall generally be in the form of important research results which significantly advance the understanding of theories and methods impacting computational mechanics, but special individual contributions in leadership and administration, industrial applications, and engineering analysis that advance computational mechanics shall also represent accomplishments worthy of recognition. The IACM Award for Computational Mechanics will be given for contributions to traditional areas, such as computational structural mechanics and computational fluid dynamics, but may also be given to recognize contributions outside these specific areas. For example, the Award may be given in recognition of accomplishments in software development, scientific computing, research contributions in computational electromagnetics, semi-conductor device simulation, biomechanics or other areas not traditionally embraced by computational structural mechanics and fluid dynamics but which have general applicability to computational mechanics. The IACM Award for Young Investigators in Computational Mechanics recognizes outstanding accomplishments, particularly outstanding published papers, by researchers 40 or younger. Eligibility requires that the nominee not turn 41 in the year the award is presented. The Fellows Award recognized individuals with a distinguished record of research, accomplishment and publication in areas of computational mechanics and demonstrated support of the IACM through membership and participation in the Association, its meetings and activities.

[NotiAMCA] Conferencia Dr. R. Lebensohn
Día Miércoles 25 de Julio Hora: 15 hs Lugar: Sala del Edificio del Reactor Nuclear Ricardo A. Lebensohn Materials Science and Technology Division, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos, NM 87544, USA. Resumen En la primera parte discutiremos el actual paradigma multiscala para la simulación de propiedades mecánicas de materiales, cuyo objetivo es relacionar modelos formulados a distintas escalas, con el fin de obtener predicciones de comportamiento mecánico que contengan la mayor cantidad posible de información microestructural. A continuación nos concentraremos en la escala mesoscópica y presentaremos un método numérico basado en la Transformada Rápida de Fourier (FFT) para obtener los campos micromecánicos en policristales tridimensionales deformados plásticamente. Mostraremos: a) predicciones de evolución de orientaciones y desorientaciones promedio en los granos de un policristal de cobre, deformado en tracción, utilizando imágenes obtenidas por medio de Microscopía de Imágenes de Orientación (OIM) y b) cómo la anterior formulación de campo completo puede ser utilizada para evaluar la precisión de distintos métodos de homogeneización (o de campo medio) disponibles para la predicción del comportamiento mecánico de policristales. If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it? Dr. Raul E.

[NotiAMCA] 2a. Escola de Grid - Congresso da SBC
Gostaria de contar com sua ajuda na disseminação dessa chamada da Escola de Grid, que conta com uma oportunidade para experimentar a definição e execução de processos num grid operacional ! Inscrições com desconto até 15 de maio !!! Vagas Limitadas! Obrigada, Marta Mattoso Coordenação da Escola de Grid - Congresso da SBC CHAMADA PARA PARTICIPAÇÃO 2a. Escola de Grid - Congresso da SBC Instituto Militar de Engenharia - IME, Praça Gen. Tibúrcio, 80 Praia Vermelha, Rio de Janeiro, RJ 3-5 de Julho de 2007 Inscrições com desconto até 15 de maio !!! Vagas Limitadas! A Segunda Escola de Grid (2GS) tem como objetivos apresentar as tecnologias de Grid para usuários em potencial, além de permitir o estudo e a prática em desenvolver aplicações através da infraestrutura EGEE (http://www.eu-egee.org). A 2GS está aberta para qualquer pessoa interessada no uso de grids para pesquisa em *e-science*. A infraestrutura EGEE compreende mais de 20.000 CPUs disponíveis para os usuários 24 horas por dia, 7 dias por semana. Além disso, disponibiliza aproximadamente 5 Petabytes (5 milhões de Gigabytes) em armazenamento, e mantém em média 20.000 jobs concorrentes. Tal disponibilidade de recursos muda a forma como se faz pesquisa científica. Esta infraestrutura habilita ocientista a juntar organizações virtuais, a compartilhar seus recursos e a criar e usar aplicações sobre a mesma. As primeiras aplicações a usar a infraestrutura de Grid EGEE foram das áreas de física e biomedicine, mas a EGEE agora também apoia aplicações de muitos outros domínios científicos, tais como astrofísica, química computacional, ciências da terra, fusão, geofísica, processamento sísmico, geografia, bibliotecas digitais e arqueologia. Além disso, há muitas aplicações do setor industrial atualmente executando sobre a EGEE, tais como aplicações da geofísica e da indústria plástica. A primeira edição da Escola de Grid, foi realizada com sucesso no ano passado, em conjunto com o Vecpar 2006 (http://vecpar.fe.up.pt/2006/school.html). A organização da 2ª. Escola de Grid é motivada pelo incentivo que o governo, em especial o CNPq vem dando para a adoção de tecnologias baseadas em grids. Diversos grids começam a ser formados, e iniciativas do Brasil junto à Europa também são realidade (por exemplo através do EELA - http://www.eu-eela.org/). Entretanto, o uso da tecnologia de grids envolve uma série de conceitos novos e o uso de um conjunto de ferramentas que não são simples de instalar e utilizar. A 2ª. Escola de Grid vem apoiar os primeiros passos na familiarização com essa infra-estrutura, além de disponibilizar o uso de um grid europeu para fins acadêmicos aos participantes da mesma. A 2ª. Escola de Grid será ministrada por Gergely Sipos, que desenvolve pesquisa em grid no contexto de vários projetos internacionais.

Estimados, Comenzamos nuestros seminarios del 2006 !! El viernes 7 de abril de 17 a 19 hs en el salón del Consejo de la FIUBA. Buenos Aires. Para ese viernes la charla estará a cargo del Dr. Guillermo Marshall y colaboradores: Modelos y simulación en cáncer: estudios in vivo, in vitro, e in silico en un contexto de High Performance Computing (HPC). Juan Carlos Calvo (Doctor en Química, IBYME, FCEyN, UBA) Lucas Colombo (Doctor en Medicina, Instituto Roffo, Escuela de Medicina, UBA) Guillermo Marshall (Doctor en Ingenieria, Laboratorio de Sistemas Complejos, FCEyN, UBA) Resumen El desarrollo de tratamientos dirigidos a tumores cancerígenos con agentes quimioterápicos se ha beneficiado enormemente por los avances en Biología Molecular. El tratamiento óptimo requiere que cantidades suficientes de droga lleguen al blanco constituido por las células cancerosas. Sin embargo, nada puede llegar al blanco sin atravesar las paredes de arterias y venas y el entramado de la matriz intersticial. La acumulación heterogénea de droga puede llevar a que una pequeña fracción de células no sea tratada, con el consiguiente rebrote del tumor, de aquí la relevancia del estudio del transporte de drogas. Debido a la complejidad del proceso biológico proponemos el estudio del transporte de drogas en tumores a través de modelos in vivo con ratones, modelos in vitro (con geles de colágenos) y modelos in silico (matrices de colágenos numéricas) en un entorno de computación distribuida de alta performance, con la aplicación de campos eléctricos constantes y pulsantes para reforzar la difusión de la droga con electro acumulación. El objetivo general es desarrollar una comprensión cuantitativa del transporte de drogas en presencia de electro acumulación por medio de mediciones experimentales in vivo e in vitro e integrar los resultados en un modelo macroscópico computacional unificado. Se espera que las simulaciones con este modelo arrojen luz sobre las barreras fisiológicas de tumores sólidos y ayuden en el desarrollo de estrategias óptimas para superarlas en aras de una mejor detección y tratamiento del cáncer. En esta charla daremos una brevísima introducción a los modelos in vivo, in vitro e in silico. Saludos, Eduardo Dvorkin

Conference on Computational Fluid and Solid Mechanics, June 13 - 15, 2007 Dear Colleague, I am sending this email as a call for abstracts for the Fourth M.I.T. Conference on Computational Fluid and Solid Mechanics. Having had three large and very successful Conferences, we are now planning for a much smaller M.I.T. Conference on Computational Fluid and Solid Mechanics. As announced already, we will focus on the topic 'Fluid-Structure Interactions', see http://www.fourthmitconference.org For this small conference, industrial support cannot be expected, and hence there will be no fellowships available. The Conference Proceedings will again be published by Elsevier but as a special issue of the journal Computers and Structures. We are planning for this issue to be ready at the Conference, and in the hard-cover form of the earlier Conferences. Please note that the DUE DATE FOR THE ABSTRACTS OF PROPOSED PAPERS (maximum one page) IS JANUARY 30, 2006, and please refer to the above web site. I look forward to seeing you at the Fourth M.I.T. Conference on Computational Fluid and Solid Mechanics. Very best wishes for the Holiday Season, for Christmas, for the New Year, and beyond! Best regards, KJ Bathe Professor K.J.

[NotiAMCA] Sección local de la SIAM
Estimados: Desde hace ya largo tiempo varios matematicos de Argentina estamos manteniendo conversaciones con gente de SIAM para tratar de formar una section local de la SIAM con el objeto de tener un foro que nuclee a todos los matemáticos que trabajan en el pais en diversas areas de la matemática y sus diversas aplicaciones, y para conseguir que SIAM apoye su desarrollo y difusion en forma mas activa. Creemos que esto es largamente esperado, que sera muy bienvenido por muchos matematicos (aplicados y no tanto !) y que el apoyo de SIAM para su creacion es fundamental. Es importante destacar que actualmente solo existen dos sections de SIAM fuera de Estados Unidos, una en Inglaterra y otra en Asia del Este. En marzo de este año, tuvimos conversaciones con gente muy allegada a SIAM durante una conferencia que se realizo en el Rectorado de la UTN en Buenos Aires. Desde entonces ellos nos han ayudado en esta etapa inicial. Hemos mantenido conversaciones con James Crawley (Executive President de SIAM). Para comenzar, debemos enviar a SIAM una nota de pedido (petition letter). Esta nota debe ir firmada por al menos 20 miembros activos se SIAM. Sucede que actualmente somos solo 7 en Argentina. Hablamos del tema con James Crowley y el nos informo que existe la categoria outreach membership para paises en vias de desarrollo entre los que se encuentra Argentina. Los que deseen pueden asociarse por 10 dolares anuales. La membership de los que se asocien ahora comienza a partir del 1 de enero de 2006. La idea es precisamente comenzar con la creacion de la Argentinean SIAM Section a partir del 1 de enero de 2006. Como les dije, necesitamos llegar al menos a las 20 firmas. Los que esten interesados en firmar la nota de pedido deberian primero asociarse, lo que pueden hacer online en el sitio: http://www.siam.org/membership/outreach.php Luego avisenme por mail y yo me encargare de hacerles llegar la carta para que la firmen.

[NotiAMCA] Sobre la organización de MECOM 2005
La Asociación Argentina de Mecánica Computacional desea hacer público su agradecimiento a Axel Larreteguy, y a sus colaboradores, en particular a Paola Dellepiane, por la exitosa organización de MECOM 2005. Axel asumió la responsabilidad de su organización con poco margen de tiempo. Supo buscar los recursos y armar un equipo de trabajo que condujo a un congreso de alto nivel técnico, donde todos nos sentimos a gusto y donde la UADE proporcionó un marco adecuado para el exito del mismo. Por todo ello queremos, desde la Comisión Directiva de AMCA felicitarlo y expresarle nuestro agradecimiento. Victorio Sonzogni Presidente AMCA
[NotiAMCA] Sergio Idelsohn deja la presidencia de AMCA
El dia 11 de noviembre de 2005 se realizó en Buenos Aires la asamblea anual de AMCA, en la que se eligieron autoridades para el período 2005-2007. El Dr. Sergio Idelsohn, que venía ocupando la presidencia desde la creación de nuestra asociación decidió no aceptar su designación para un nuevo período. Las sucesivas renovaciones de su mandato no fueron sino votos de confianza de nuestros asociados frente a la exitosa conducción que ha sabido llevar Sergio. La Asociación Argentina de Mecánica Computacional ha realizado una sostenida tarea en la promoción de las actividades en esta área patrocinando congresos anuales; editando publicaciones; trabajando en la cooperación internacional con entidades, centros y especialistas; instituyendo premios; etc. Posee hoy una importante inserción a nivel internacional, siendo una de las primeras asociaciones nacionales en integrar la IACM (International Association for Computational Mechanics) y participando con cuatro de sus miembros en el consejo general de esta asociación internacional. Precisamente AMCA ha tenido a su cargo la organización del Cuarto Congreso Mundial de la IACM en Buenos Aires, en 1998. Los logros que hoy puede exhibir la Asociación Argentina de Mecánica Computacional se deben a la obra de todos sus miembros, que representan sin duda una comunidad ejemplar. Sin embargo me parece que la letra de Sergio se reconoce en su actividad institucional en estos veinte años de existencia. Sé que la Asociación Argentina de Mecánica Computacional sigue contando con él como lo ha hecho hasta ahora. Y quiero aprovechar la circunstancia de este cambio de autoridades, para hacer un público reconocimiento y agradecimiento a Sergio Idelsohn por su importante labor al frente de nuestra institución.

We look forward to receiving your abstract, and welcoming your contribution in what promises to be a most successful conference in 2006. Yours sincerely Katie Banham Conference Secretariat **If you have already submitted your Abstract - thank you. You do not need to re-submit it** = OBJECTIVES = SUSI 2006 is the ninth International Conference in the series on 'Structures Under Shock and Impact'. The meeting's chief objective is to attract support from as wide a spectrum of expertise as possible and across a broad range of impact problems throughout industry. The shock and impact behaviour of structures is a difficult area, not only because of its obvious time-dependent aspects, but also because of the difficulties in specifying the external dynamic loading characteristics and in obtaining the full dynamic properties of materials. Thus it is important to recognise and fully utilise the contributions and understanding emerging from the theoretical, numerical and experimental studies, as well as investigations into the material properties under dynamic loading Papers are invited on the interaction between blast pressure and surface or underground structures, whether the blast is from civilian, military, dust and natural explosions, or any other source. The list of topics gives an idea of the wide range of applications to be discussed during the meeting. Contributions in topics not listed are also welcome if they fall within the scope of the SUSI Conference. SUSI 2006 follows on from the other successful meetings in this series, which first started in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA (1989) and continued in Portsmouth, UK (1992); Madrid, Spain (1994); Udine, Italy (1996); Thessaloniki, Greece (1998); Cambridge, UK (2000); Montreal (2002); and Crete (2004). = CONFERENCE TOPICS = Impact and blast loading characteristics Protection of structures from blast loads Missile penetration and explosion Air craft and missile crash against high-rise buildings Seismic engineering applications Energy absorbing issues Fluid structure interaction Behaviour of structural concrete Behaviour of steel structures Structural behaviour of composites Material response to high rate loading Structural crashworthiness Impact biomechanics Structural serviceability under impact loading Microdynamics Interaction between computational and experimental results Software for shock and impact Bomb blast FULL CONFERENCE DETAILS AT: http://www.wessex.ac.uk/conferences/2006/susi2006/2.html == Conference Assistant Wessex Institute Ashurst Lodge, Ashurst Southampton, SO40 7AA, UK Email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: +44 (0) 238 029 3223 Fax: +44 (0) 238 029 2853

[NotiAMCA] Golems 2005 en Praga
Victorio, es posible que la informacisn adjunta sea de interis para los suscriptores de Notiamca. Es informacisn que estimo muy valiosa respecto de la Bienal Argentino-Checa Golems Electrsnicos que se llevara a cabo en Praga en julio prsximo; serma muy ztil si se pudiera difundir en ambientes cientmficos (tanto de ciencias exactas y naturales como de ciencias sociales y humanas), tecnolsgicos y artmsticos. El E-Golems Workshop puede permitir una integracisn de trabajos - y personas - provenientes de las ciencias, la tecnologma y las artes. No es comzn un esfuerzo orientado en este sentido, y contamos con la colaboracisn del Embajador Argentino en la Repzblica Checa, Juan E. Fleming, que esta trabajando intensa y exitosamente al respecto. Aprovecho para desearles a todos muy felices fiestas y mis mejores deseos para 2005. Muy cordialmente, Pablo Jacovkis Czech - Argentine Biennale e - Golems First Workshop Interdisciplinary aspects of Human-Machine Co-existence and Co-operation Accompanying event to the World IFAC Congress Prague, July 2-5, 2005 It was with great interest that I became acquainted with the conceptual framework of the Golem 2002 project, inspired by the ancient, polysemous, multi-layered, constantly re-interpreted Golem tradition - the tradition most frequently connected with Prague, its cultural and religious plurality and its somewhat hazy spirituality. For a long time, abundant interpretations and associations linked to the character of Golem have inspired authors and artists to ever new and updated reflections. Golem is something (or somebody) still incomplete, being perpetually reborn and recreated, in the tradition associated - not accidentally - with the Prague of the time of Emperor Rudolph II and rabbi Loew; with the Prague of alchemy, mystery; the Prague of scholars, charlatans and spiritual teachers Still today, the Golem tradition has much to say. Relativism in assessing values once considered indisputable, easy substitution of the good and the evil, God's servant and his adversary, the world as the object of human wilfulness, command and power, the world as the object of care and concern about its future, the world at a fateful crossroads - all these generally perceived coordinates of our complex times can be articulated against the backdrop of the Golem tradition with great pertinence. The proof comes also in the works of prominent writers such as Gustav Meyrink, Karel Capek, Angelo M. Ripellino or Jorge Luis Borges, whose poem El Golem has now been translated into Czech Signed: Vaclav Havel (October 2002, for 'Golem 2002 - 5763') ---000--- The Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic and Charles University in Prague, together with the Czech Technical University in Prague and the Jewish Museum in Prague, jointly with the University of Buenos Aires and its Faculty of Exact and Natural Sciences, the Argentine Secretariat for Science, Technology and Productive Innovation, the National Council for Scientific and Technological Research and the International Foundation Jorge Luis Borges, as well as scientists and intellectuals from both countries, in meetings held in 2002 and 2003 in Prague and Buenos Aires, developed the conceptual framework for a Biennale addressed to the scientific and technological developments in the field of computer science and technologies, their impact on the individual and society and the cultural environment, artistic as well as social and economic resulting thereof. The Biennale is also supported, within their respective fields of competence, by the Ministries of Culture and of Education of the Czech Republic and by the Secretary for Culture and the Ministry of Education of the Argentine. The inspiration for such Biennale was drawn from the poem on the Golem and Rabbi Loew in Prague by Jorge Luis Borges and the present day metaphorical value of the Golem as robot, artificial intelligence, cybernetics, virtual reality, nano-technologies and the Internet, proved instrumental to such framework. In the case of robotics, it links with the homunculus conceived by the Czech writer Karel Capek in his play R.U.R. (1921), in which he coined the noun robot. The name e-Golems of the Biennale stands for electronic Golems. During the preparations, it was thought appropriate to implement the Biennale's conceptual framework progressively, profiting from the hosting in Prague of the 16th World IFAC - International Federation for Automatic Control - Congress (July 4th to the 8th), by convening the first international e-Golems Biennale workshop from July 3rd to 5th with the official opening and conclusion being July the 2nd and the 5th. The content of this First Argentine - Czech Biennale workshop is aimed at ideas and considerations which reflect a certain

por Hughes y sus colaboradores, usa una viscosidad de remolinos que actua solamente sobre las pequenas escalas, es decir, adapta las ideas prevalecientes en el campo al marco multiescala. El otro, mas reciente, construye aproximaciones a las pequenas escalas (subescalas no resueltas) del campo de velocidades. Estas evitan la necesidad de introducir viscosidades de remolino (viscosidades artificiales), permitiendo obtener tazas de convergencia dadas por el esquema de discretizacion y no acotadas por la viscosidad artificial. Se demostrara numericamente que ambos conceptos resultan mas eficientes que los metodos convencionales. En particular se presentaran simulaciones de flujos turbulentos isotropicos y homogeneos, de flujos en canales y de transicion de laminar a turbulenta de una capa limite en presencia de turbulencia en el flujo libre-bypass transition. == Viernes 17 de diciembre, 11:00hs Centro Internacional de Metodos Computacionales en Ingenieria Parque Tecnologico del Litoral Centro (PTLC) Bo.

The general goal of the SACC Consortium is to coordinate and enhance human and institutional resources in the participating countries in order to advance the understanding of the coupled effects of global change and climate variability on the oceanic, atmospheric and terrestrial ecosystems of the Western South Atlantic (WSA) region. SACC activities are summarized at http://glaucus.fcien.edu.uy/pcmya/sacc/index.html Among several other activities the SACC has organized a series of short courses aimed at addressing subjects related to its goals and objectives. The topic of the fourth course is Numerical modeling of continental shelves. The Short Course - 2004 The fourth course will be given at Fundaçao Universidade Federal do Rio Grande, Rio Grande. Brazil, between 22 November and 3 December, 2004. The course Instructors are Dr. Elbio Palma, Departamento de Física, Universidad del Sur and Instituto Argentino de Oceanografía, Argentina and Dr. Ivan Soares, Departamento de Física, Fundaçao Universidade Federal do Rio Grande, Brazil. Course Outline: The full course contents are available through the SACC homepage at: http:// glaucus.fcien.edu.uy/pcmya/sacc/course_2004/ The course will offer an introduction to the techniques used in numerical models of coastal ocean circulation. After presenting the governing equations and discussing their general characteristics, the standard numerical methods used for their spatial and temporal discretization will be analyzed. The objective is to bring the students the basic information to understand the performance of the models that are currently used for research and prediction. The evolution of numerical modeling techniques will be discussed focusing on the physical problems that originate their development. In the second part of the course, the participant will make his own simulations using a freely available state-of-the-art coastal ocean circulation model. 1. Introduction to coastal ocean modeling. 2. Numerical approximation concepts. 3. Two dimensional numerical coastal models.. 4. Three dimensional numerical coastal models.
