On Professor Gene Golub's 20th birthday, we would like to organize a
workshop to celebrate his life. Gene visited Hong Kong and Mainland
China many times, and had a close relationship with the Hong Kong
Baptist University (HKBU). At HKBU, he received an honorary doctorate
in 2002 and accepted a 3-year position as Distinguished Professor in
2007. The University set up an Institute for Computational
Mathematics (ICM) to prepare for Gene's assumption of duty in January
2008.
