How to get to the Charles University hostel (Kolej 17. listopadu):
From the airport, you should take bus #119 to the subway station
Dejvicka (green line, marked by "A"). You may also use bus #108
to the subway station Hradcanska (the same line). You should
get off the train at the station Muzeum (5 or 4 stops, respectively)
and change the line to the red one, marked by "C", then proceed
to the last stop Holesovicke nadrazi. You should NOT use the exit

Czech-U.S. Workshop on Iterative Methods and Parallel
Computing,
June 16-21, 1997, Milovy , Czech Republic
A Czech-U.S. Workshop on Iterative Methods and Parallel Computing
will be held from June 16 to June 21, 1997 at the
Devet Skal Hotel (literally "Nine Rocks") in Milovy .
Milovy is a small village located in the Bohemian-Moravian
Highlands (central part of the Czech Republic) at about

Scientific Programme:
The aim of the workshop is to bring together numerical analysts,
specialists in numerical linear algebra and parallel computing,
especially those interested in iterative methods and their
applications
in computational mathematics.
The emphasis of the meeting will
be on a ``workshop'', i.e., on work among the participants,
with periods of free time for unstructured discussions.
The
preliminary program
of the workshop is available.
Organizing Committee:
Call for Papers

will be devoted to papers presented at the workshop. The issue
will contain only those papers that meet the publication standards
of the journal and that are approved by standard refereeing
procedures. The submission deadline is November 30, 1997.
Social Program
The recreation facilities offer a swimming pool, sauna, fitness
