About 60 scientists and students attended the 96' International
Conference on Nonlinear Programming, which was held September 2-5
at Institute of Compu tational Mathematics and
Scientific/Engineering Computing (ICMSEC), Chi nese Academy of
Sciences, Beijing, China. 25 participants were from outside China
and 35 from China. The conference was to celebrate the 60's
birthday of Professor M.J.D. Powell (Fellow of Royal Society,
University of Cambridge) for his many contributions to nonlinear
optimization. On behalf of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, vice
president Professor Zhi hong Xu attended the opening ceremony of
the conference to express his warm welcome to all the participants.
After the opening ceremony, Professor M.J.D. Powell gave the
keynote lecture "The use of band matrices for second derivative
approximations in trust region methods." 13 other invited lectures
on recent advances of nonlinear programming were given during the
four day meeting: "Primal-dual methods for nonconvex optimization"
by M. H. Wright (SIAM President, Bell Labs), "Interior point
trajectories in semidefinite programming" by D. Goldfarb (Columbia
University, Editor-in-Chief for Series A of Mathe matical
Programming), "An approach to derivative free optimization" by A."
