PREFACE
These proceedings contain a selection of papers presented at the
Third European Conference on Multigrid Methods
which was held in Bonn on October 1-4, 1990.
Following conferences in 1981 and 1985, a platform for the presentation of new Multigrid
results was provided for a third time. Multigrid methods no longer have problems being
accepted by numerical analysts and users of numerical methods; on the contrary, they have
been further developed in such a successful way that they have penetrated a variety of new
fields of application. The high number of 154 participants from 18 countries and 76 presented
papers show the need to continue the series of the European Multigrid Conferences.
The papers of this volume give a survey on the current Multigrid situation; in particular,
they correspond to those fields where new developments can be observed. For example, se
veral papers study the appropriate treatment of time dependent problems. Improvements can
also be noticed in the Multigrid approach for semiconductor equations. The field of parallel
Multigrid variants, having been started at the second European Multigrid Conference, is now
at the centre of interest.
Whereas the papers of this volume are assumed to be of general interest for a large number of
scientists in academic as well as industrial research, those more specialized papers presented
at the conference will be published in the series GMD-Studien, volume no. 189: Multigrid
Methods: Special Topics and Applications II. (These papers are listed at the end of this
volume.)
At this point, we would like to thank again all participants and especially the lecturers and
those having presented posters for their contributions to the success of the conference.
The conference was initiated by
• Gesellschaft fiir Mathematik und Datenverarbeitung mbH (GMD),
St. Augustin,
• GAMM-Fachausschull 'Effiziente numerische Verfahren fiir partielle
Differentialgleichungen' .
The scientific organization was excellently conceived by Dr. Ute Giirtel, Institut fiir Metho
dische Grundlagen of the GMD. Together with Christine Harms, Conference Secretariat of
VI
the GMD, she was also responsible for the practical realization. Furthermore, several co
workers, the secretary and the students of the Institut fur Methodische Grundlagen provided
substantial assistance to the organization of the conference. We thank all persons involved.
We would like to express our gratitude to the Executive Board of the GMD for their support
of the conference. Furthermore, we thank the industrial sponsors (Bayer AG, Dornier GmbH,
Krupp Atlas Elektronik GmbH, Stardent Computer GmbH, Sun Microsystems GmbH, SU
PRENUM GmbH) for their interest in the topics of the conference.
Finally, we would like to thank Birkhauser Verlag for their friendly cooperation.
