On February 29th, 2008, there will be a meeting held at the University of Porto, in memoriam of Gene Golub.

The event is part of a series of similar events replicated around the world on the same day - GeneAroundTheworld. Mike Overton maintains the web page Gene Around the World with a list of similar events.

The afternoon program will be in an informal style. It will include a remembrance of Gene's visits to Portugal as well as some technical talks in the area of interest of Matrix Computations.
