Yousef Saad of the University of Minnesota is the recipient of the 2023 John von Neumann Prize: SIAM’s highest honor and flagship lecture. During the 10th International Congress on Industrial and Applied Mathematics, which was held in August in Tokyo, Japan, Saad was acknowledged for his fundamental contributions to scientific computing and effective communication of these ideas to the community. His “work on algorithms is especially impactful to the fields of sparse linear systems, eigenvalue problems, nonlinear equations, and graph algorithms, and can be applied to a wide range of problems in computational science and engineering.” Saad delivered an associated prize lecture on “Iterative Linear Algebra for Large Scale Computations” at the conference.

Hou was honored during the SIAM Reception for Prize Winners at the 10th International Congress on Industrial and Applied Mathematics, which took place in Tokyo, Japan, this August. He was commended for “highly original and pioneering research contributions positioned at the meeting point between analytical and computational approaches to partial differential equations with multiscale or singular behavior.” SIAM photo.

Cheng was honored at the SIAM Reception for Prize Winners during the 10th International Congress on Industrial and Applied Mathematics, which was held this August in Tokyo, Japan. The prize notation praised her “outstanding work on discontinuous Galerkin methods, including structure preservation and sparse grid methods for kinetic and transport equations.” SIAM photo.
