Surface Approximation and Visualisation

 Doris
The topic Surface Approximation and Visualisation will be interpreted broadly and we expect participants with interests covering the spectrum from Approximation Theory, through Numerical Analysis and Computer Aided Geometric Design, to those whose main interest is applications (e.g., data mining and geophysics). We plan to allocate lots of time without lectures for informal interactions, including a conference trip to Hanmer Springs thermal area. Currently confirmed speakers include:

B. Barsky (Berkeley), M. D. Buhmann (Dortmund), N. Dyn (Tel Aviv),
R. Goldman (Rice), M. Hegland (Canberra), S. L. Lee (Singapore), T. Lyche (Oslo),
D. Leviatan (Tel Aviv), C. A. Micchelli (IBM), G. M. Nielson (Arizona), A. Pinkus (Technion),
R. Schaback (Göttingen), L. L. Schumaker (Vanderbilt), Zuowei Shen (Singapore)
